VacancyCentre Launches New Recruitment Portal

Local recruitment leader VacancyCentre.com unveiled a new jobs and careers website to enhance the brand’s recruitment efforts. This coincides with VacancyCentre.com’s 12th Anniversary since it launched on the web in 1999. VacancyCentre.com, which is operated by CSB Group revamped its website - now its 5th version - to streamline the way career seekers search for an increasing number of employment opportunities, both locally and now also internationally, while keeping tabs on the latest openings across the VacancyCentre.com network. The site now boasts over 1000 jobs and is thus the job board that offers the largest number of online jobs in Malta.

Online recruitment

As part of a broad job search process, online recruitment has made the job search easier than ever before. With the constant dynamic changes in technology and increased web popularity, online recruitment has become the main source for both candidates and employers alike. There are a wide range of such sites available online, so finding one that is appropriate to your needs is much easier nowadays. When used as part of an overall job search approach, online recruitment sites can be very helpful and time-saving. With this in mind, VacancyCentre.com also understands candidates’ demand for simpler and more flexible access to our job vacancies. Having enhanced its effectiveness as a Job Board, aside from the established success in Recruitment Solutions, VacancyCentre.com will continue to be the portal that most reputable companies would utilise. The increased functionality gives VacancyCentre.com a competitive advantage, providing both the employer and career seeker a more engaging experience, allowing for an efficient recruitment process across a number of industries. This is backed by VacancyCentre.com JOBm@il service. The portal also offers career seekers the option to browse and apply for jobs outside Malta via our Network partners - across a wide range of countries, within and outside the EU. The site was developed by CSB Group who have operated within the recruitment industry for the past 25 years. “Using RSS (Really Simple Syndication) and Web 2.0 technology that is also iPad and Smart Phone friendly, this new website is more efficient as we note the current trends for employees to use smartphones to browse job vacancies“ said Group Marketing Executive Diane Borg Bascetta. This is only the beginning and we are planning to add more features and functionality as this new site allows for increased flexibility. The launch of our site is backed by an integrated Marketing Campaign and goes by the name of ‘Reach for New Heights’ which aims to raise the bar in terms of recruitment-related advertising.

Online job postings

Head of Recruitment & HR Services, Caren Portelli also added that recruiters and employers can now benefit from free job postings and hence advertise their vacancy for free for a limited time period. Career opportunities are easier to find through VacancyCentre.com and the site will allow users to filter employment opportunities endlessly, including by industry, country and key words. Finally, the site will continue to allow candidates to join the rest of the 24,000 subscribers to our interactive JOBm@il service, gaining the opportunity to receive job alerts on new incoming positions within their selected category. She continued by saying: “We are delighted to offer both our existing and potential clients the opportunity to benefit from our ever successful recruitment website as a Job Board and experience the effectiveness of the Job Posting and JOBm@il service. Needless to say, we stress that candidate and client confidentiality, as well as efficiency are key values and stress their importance in everything that we do.’’ VacancyCentre.com site visits are on the increase, therefore continue to enjoy a strong online presence and one of the highest PR Ranking amongst local recruitment sites. Candidates and employers are also able to benefit from the new Resource Library which shall provide interesting tips and articles for employers, business owners, job seekers and graduates. In addition to that, our visitors shall now also be able to browse for jobs by country – countries who are also fellow members of The Network – one of the world’s largest recruitment portals. ‘’With this in mind, we aim to broaden horizons for our visitors, thus offering them the opportunity to consider and apply for career opportunities outside our shores’’ said CSB Group CEO Michael J. Zammit. This happens to coincide with ongoing international projects on which we have recently embarked, among which an HR Consultancy project for an international insurance group which was successfully completed earlier this year.
