Logitech to Use itzbig Real Time Sourcing Network to Attract Talented New Hires
AUSTIN, Texas, Feb 05, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- itzbig (www.itzbig.com) announced today that Logitech, the world leader in personal peripherals, driving innovation in PC navigation, Internet communications, digital music, home-entertainment control, gaming and wireless devices, will use itzbig's interactive sourcing network to find talented new hires.
The commitment of Logitech (www.logitech.com) represents the company's desire to maintain a standard of excellence, which has been the company's hallmark since it was founded in 1981.
"Logitech is a great company, and an innovative leader in their market," said Jim McGovern, CEO of itzbig. "The fact that Logitech asked us to help support such a critical component of their business - the hiring of new employees - is extremely gratifying."
itzbig holds an advantage in the recruiting industry because of its real time technology, which allows candidates to measure their profile against individual openings at Logitech and compare their given score to those of other applicants. Candidates have control over their identity with itzbig. For example, they can wait to see their score before disclosing their identity to Logitech, an attractive option that mitigates the risk of exposing their identity.
"We selected itzbig because of its successful track record with technology companies in Texas and the terrific endorsements it has received from objective third parties in the human resource industry," said Logitech Staffing Manager John Zwieg. "This earned reputation made us want to be a part of their West Coast Launch."
Another attraction to Logitech was itzbig's ability to provide gracious recruiting immediate feedback to candidates who many times feel their online applications just go into a black hole.
"The itzbig network facilitates communication with qualified job applicants," said Zwieg. "This separates us from many other companies as a responsible corporate citizen that understands the importance of letting job candidates know where they stand. Even if the candidate doesn't get the job, we feel it is important for them to know where they stand."
