My Perfect Gig, Inc. today announced the launch of SourceView, a sourcing intelligence solution for Companies, and My Perfect Gig.com, a private career network for job seekers. Together, these services bring the level of industry-specific, skills-based matching intelligence to a whole new level.
My Perfect Gig delivers an experience for corporate recruiters, hiring managers and job seekers that is similar to today’s quality contingency search firms but accomplished quicker with significantly less cost and in a highly scalable manner. “At My Perfect Gig, we saw a huge opportunity within the online recruitment marketplace, for both companies and for job seekers”, said Blair Heavey, CEO of My Perfect Gig, Inc. “There’s a real lack of information as to the available supply and demand for talent associated with specific skills within an industry. We provide this information on a specific skill by skill and industry by industry basis.”
The Company has been working closely with industry leading firms such as Raytheon, Broadcom and Teradyne as well as with respected industry leaders to perfect its service. “There’s not a lot of data out there to help recruiting organizations of the world understand how to create strategies to make them successful”, said Russ Campanello, SVP of Human Resources and Administration at PhaseForward and an advisor to the firm. “My Perfect Gig is the first organization I’ve been exposed to that actually adds the right kind of information at the right time so the people who are doing the recruiting aren’t just herding candidates, rather they are actually creating strategies that help their organizations be successful at getting talent before anybody else does.” The Company is initially targeting firms within the computer, electronics and semiconductor industries and focuses on matching engineering talent within those industries with plans to rapidly expand in the area of occupations as well as industries covered over the course of 2008.
Through SourceView, the Company’s sourcing intelligence tool, My Perfect Gig enables recruiters to get to the bottom of what the ‘must have requirements’ are for their requisition and then match candidates to jobs and companies to candidates with an in-depth, industry-specific knowledge of the exact skills sets required for the position. “We have created a proprietary, patent pending ‘common language’ process which analyzes an employer’s requirements outlined in their job specifications and matches those requirements with a candidate’s specific skills on an industry by industry basis”, said Mark Dane, Founder and VP of Engineering at My Perfect Gig.
Through My Perfect Gig.com, a job seeker’s skills are analyzed so that the individual can see which of their skills are most in demand within their particular industry. “We’re unique in that we enable consumers to get an ‘insider’s perspective’ as to what the ‘must have’ requirements are for open job positions and then facilitate a direct, private and secure connection with companies searching for talent”, said Chris Hill, My Perfect Gig’s SVP of Marketing and Product Management.
