UK based company The Internet
Corporation Limited, owner of Amris, announced the acquisition of Israeli
company Zao, to complement and enhance its award winning Amris eRecruitment
platform. The transaction combines the complementary strengths and benefits of
both solutions, to create a unique and even wider range of eRecruitment
services. Employee referrals result in the best quality hires, especially as
scarcity of talent is growing in line with the economic recovery. Zao’s
employee social referral platform is designed to boost referral hires, and will
be available as a fully integrated optional module for all Amris users, and
equally available as an independent solution that can integrate with any
applicant tracking system on the market.
“This is a revolutionary opportunity that will
redefine the way organizations hire, creating a comprehensive joint solution
transforming direct sourcing and engagement with the power of social media,”
said Mark Kieve, CEO at The Internet Corporation. “The combination of Zao and
Amris will allow companies to use social networks not only for job advertising,
but for employee referrals and enhanced engagement in an automated and
extremely efficient manner. Zao is a great fit with Amris, and combined
provides a formidable tool for effective hiring and candidate engagement in every
respect, we are delighted to again broaden our wide range of online recruitment
services. We look forward to welcoming Zao and all their customers to the Amris
eRecruitment Family.”
Zao was established in 2011 by Ziv Eliraz and
raised to-date about $1.3m. Zao's has a high quality worldwide customer base,
including Nespresso, Fiverr, and Marvell. Zao makes referrals and social media
hiring easy, automated and fun. In a world where our contacts are mapped out on
social networks, it doesn’t make sense to sift through them manually. Zao makes
it easy to recommend friends by automatically matching your job descriptions to
the capabilities of your Facebook and LinkedIn contacts. Zao increases employee
engagement in referrals, by making participation fun using gamification, which
rewards employees for good effort and not just referral hires. Zao’s automation
takes the work out of repetitive tasks, and allows job sharing on social
networks at any frequency.
Zao also lets you include your trusted business
network in referrals. Zao is dedicated to helping you make referrals and social
media your most powerful source of hire.
Amris was one of the first truly social ATS
solutions, offering full integration with key social media sites such as
Facebook and Twitter since the early days of social media.
