Depacareers.com wins two international awards
Depa’s dedicated career portal http://www.depacareers.com/ has won the prestigious W3 Award and the Davey Award organised by the International Academy of Visual Arts (IAVA) in Los Angeles. The website, which is designed and developed by Hiring Solutions, won both awards in the Employment category.
The portal was developed to improve global candidate experience, to convey the company’s strengths as an employer and to hire exceptional talent. Depa is successfully achieving all of this and more.
“Depa understood that websites for candidates should be dramatically different from a company’s corporate website. The website’s bold design is just part of the complete experience. We integrated Google maps for geographic job search, drew up a navigation structure that is candidate friendly, integrated the back-end with our world-class enterprise Sniperhire e-recruitment technology and wrote content that sounded less like PR and more like an intelligent conversation with the candidate,” says Mohammed Owais, Head of Research and Development at Hiring Solutions.
The powerful portal allows Depa to advertise all its vacancies for free. It gives them global reach and allows quality candidates to apply to their vacancies 24×7. The website includes many exciting features such as online interview booking through candidate self service and unique 10-minute application process that only asks for information relevant to the job profile.
Linda Day, the executive director of the IAVA, says, “This year’s winners continue to set the bar in Web development and design. We are thrilled to have reviewed such a diverse and respected pool of work that continues to advance Internet creativity and greatly contribute to the robust and ever-changing online community.”
