Online Video Interviewing Service to Help Employers Staff Three Million Economic Recovery Plan Jobs

La Jolla, Ca - January 26, 2009. Downsized organizations have a new tool to screen candidates for the three million new jobs proposed in President Obama's American Recovery and Reinvestment Plan. PeopleCurve Systems LLC launched Envoy -- an online video interviewing service that gets important information from job candidates and gives employers tools to decide on which candidates to bring in for onsite visits. Available today, Envoy targets large organizations, including companies pursuing infrastructure and health care information system projects.

"This economic downturn has HR staff members and hiring managers understaffed and overworked," said Joe Matibag, vice president, PeopleCurve Systems. "These people need new tools to help them quickly staff teams with qualified employees needed to capitalize on the opportunities that President Obama's plan will provide. The Envoy system speeds the staffing process by eliminating a time consuming task, the telephone interview."

Many companies use the telephone interview as a key tool in the hiring cycle. The purpose for this call is to determine if a candidate is worthy of bringing in for a site visit.
