Brian Sommer writes at ZDNet about a new generation of content-rich recruiting tools
“At this time, Identified has some 1 billion profiles that employers can peruse. But, what I really like is the intelligence Identified has built into their search capability. For example, they know that some firms may call an entry level IT person a “consultant” while other firms call this position a “business consultant”, “Associate” or other name. When you do a search it uses its proprietary position nomenclature dictionary to find the widest set of potential candidates your firm should be cultivating relationships with and possibly hiring.”

“Connect6 counts over 500 million profiles within its searchable database. Connect6 offers a mix of applications to its corporate customers. It will:
- Search – Employers can search by prior employer, school attended, location, desired skills and more
- Post – Connect6 uses its knowledge of social networks, job boards, discussion groups, etc. to send an employer’s job postings to these sites. This makes Connect6 work more like a two-way process rather than a straight-up search and contact tool.
- Connect – Connect6 will connect the employer to prospective candidates. Connect6 will also provide social maps that clarify the connection between the candidate and the firm. “
