CV Magnet, the brand new CV database from STV Jobs, is off to a fantastic start, with nearly 1000 new CVs uploaded to the site in the first 24 hours.
CV Magnet, which was rolled out with a soft launch on 3 August, is a faster and easier way for job seekers to market themselves on STV Jobs, the online recruitment service from Scottish broadcaster STV, with thousands of recruiters across Scotland set to search the database to find their ideal candidate.
Mike Ferguson, Head of Classified at STV, said: We've had a great response since we introduced CV Magnet, with nearly 1000 new CVs uploaded already. The new and improved database provides job seekers with an even quicker and more user friendly way to showcase themselves to potential employees, giving recruiters across the country a better chance to find their perfect match. We will shortly reveal more features, including powerful search functions for recruiters.”
The roll-out of CV Magnet started on 3 August, and the service will open to recruiters on 1 September. Key features include a tool for job seekers to track how many times their CV has been viewed and downloaded from the site, and the opportunity to upload CVs in a variety of formats or import from LinkedIn profiles.
