Each year, the Fast 50 challenge generates thousands of entries and tens of thousands of comments from around the world, resulting in high-profile recognition of 50 leaders, innovators, and technology pioneers. The list of Reader Favorites is comprised of those submissions that drew the highest marks among entries with at least 25 votes from visitors to the site. Day´s submission ranked third in the list of the top 50 reader favorites.
Highlighted in Day´s entry is his "Back to the Basics" philosophy, which is redefining how corporations run their talent management programs by improving HR efficiencies and the job candidate experience. His philosophy emphasizes the value of turning less necessary system functionality into configurable user options and creating the easiest-to-use technology available in the marketplace. It is also the basis of the company´s award-winning iRecruiterTM applicant tracking solution.
Readers´ comments about Day included such observations as, "His ´Back to the Basics´ approach is fundamental but not obvious to many people in the business world; Colin´s emphasis of this idea should be commended and closely looked at by anyone who is serious about creating a solid business model," and "I have huge respect for his uncomplicated approach that is supported by unrivalled customer care, from every angle; his guidance ensured that iRecruiter has evolved into world-class no-nonsense product that delivers exactly what it is intended to do."
