LEGGENDA launches in Singapore Facebook Recruiting Applications used by 9,000+ companies and 100+ schools

Employers can now hire more efficiently and more cost effectively using social media.

SINGAPORE – September 20th, 2011 – LEGGENDA PTE. LTD. (www.leggenda.sg, www.facebook.com/leggenda.sg) has launched in Singapore two innovative Facebook applications for companies and universities, “Work For Us” and “Jobs For Me”. These social recruiting tools were pioneered by Work4 Labs, the world leader in Facebook recruiting technologies. LEGGENDA, as a certified partner of Work4 Labs, is eager to add to the company’s pre-existing network of more than 9,000 companies and 100 universities worldwide.

The application, “Work For Us,” is a revolutionary tool that allows employers to recruit directly through their Facebook Pages, and thereby target those already engaged with their brand, starting as low as 12 Singapore Dollars per month.

Social websites have been one of the most effective websites for companies to focus their recruiting efforts. Indeed, 56 percent of Fortune 500 companies have Facebook Pages and today’s users spend one of every six minutes online on a social network. Facebook is critical to online recruitment strategies, and 89 percent of companies report that they will use social networks in their 2011 recruitment strategy. ^[1]

Work4 Labs’ 9,000+ existing clients exemplify the wide successes of social recruiting among industries: Accenture, Gap, Citibank, Intel, Oracle, Microsoft, Deloitte, L’Oreal, American Apparel, Hard Rock Cafe.

The “Work For Us” app offers a range of powerful features that allow both small and large companies to leverage social media for recruiting. Recruiters can create a fully customizable job board on their Facebook page. Additionally, the app allows recruiters to create customized Facebook job ad campaigns targeting candidates based on their education, work history, interests, and location. The app also allows recruiters to harness the power of referrals by enabling Facebook users to share specific jobs with their friends, a useful tool for a company of any size.

The university recruiting solution, “Jobs For Me”, is a FREE Facebook app that allows universities to provide their students with full career center services on their Facebook page. Universities can restrict access to jobs based on the user’s Facebook network or email address. Students can then search and apply for jobs themselves as well as use advanced social matching technology to share jobs with their friends. Universities and recruiters benefit greatly from the app’s user-friendly interface and comprehensive analytics suite, such as a dashboard displaying real-time and historical trends on applicant views, likes, and sharing activities.
