Visit any app store and you’ll easily find numerous apps for job seekers. Until recently though, employers had no mobile app for searching for suitable employees. CareerBuilder saw the void in the app marketplace and created “CareerBuilder for Employers“.

With the app employers can call, email, send letters to applicants, and even receive push notifications when new applications are ready to review. They can even save candidates to a folder on their CareerBuilder account, if they wanted to further review the applicant at a different time.

The new app also enables employers to sync directly to their existing CareerBuilder accounts and also provides:

• Employers can call, email, or send a letter to the applicant directly from their iPhone
• Employers can save a candidate to a folder in their CareerBuilder account for later review
• Employers can flip through applicants by swiping left or right on the application or use the page button at the top right
• Employers can receive push notifications when new applications are available for review

“Being able to reach potential employees wherever you are provides a whole new level of speed, efficiency and convenience to recruitment,” said Brent Rasmussen, President of CareerBuilder North America. ”Our new app is designed to help employers quickly connect with the fast-growing population of mobile job seekers and get a leg up on the competition for talent.”

It should be noted that the app is only accessible by hiring managers and HR reps.
