Jobpartners announces HR-XML certification

Jobpartners, a provider of human resources and People Relationship Management (PRM) solutions, has announced ActiveRecruiter 4.0 certification with HR-XML Consortium’s JobPositionPosting specification for data exchange, based on XML language.

Jobpartners’ ActiveRecruiter is the e-recruitment module from ActiveSuite. ActiveRecruiter automates the entire recruitment process, from job requisition and managing multiple channels through selection to hire, reducing costs and improving speed and quality

ActiveRecruiter includes since its foundation JobPositionPosting specification, which allows to structure information under standardized data-exchange norms (based on XML). ActiveRecruiter 4.0 supports http/https, pop3/smtp, ftp/ftps, as well as JMS and EJBs (rmi/IIOP) for
internal connections.

ActiveRecruiter’s integration layer contains Axway Xtalk version 2.17 as a 3rd Party data integration technology, providing reliable and secure integration between Jobpartners Ltd.’s solutions, their customers’ systems
and any third-party business applications such as ERP and HRMS.


Jobpartners uses JobPositionPosting specification to structure the postings to tier websites.

The interest is to eliminate the need for an intermediary and to move from batch to real-time processing using JobPositionPosting.

When a user has a position to advertise, he or she logs into Jobpartners ActiveRecruiter, creates a job posting, which is then communicated directly to recruitment websites. As soon as the recruiter posts the job on
Jobpartners ActiveRecruiter, the postings are communicated to tier websites in real time. The recruiter receives an XML acknowledgement in response.

The initial results of making connections via HR-XML’s standards are extremely positive. By eliminating the need for an intermediary to post jobs, advertisements are available online in real time on career sites.

Under prior posting methodologies, daily updates are the best that recruiters could have hoped for. Many quality and error problems that were commonplace with batch posting also are eliminated.
