The National Online Recruitment Awards were devised to recognise the very best in UK online recruitment, from the perspective of jobseekers themselves. Now one of the most mature online industry sectors, recruitment websites have been at the forefront of developing ever more sophisticated ways of bringing together candidates, vacancies and employers. The NORAs are primarily concerned with the value, service and protection afforded to the general public, in catering for their needs in an ethical, professional, secure and effective manner.
Nominations will produce a shortlist of 5 finalists for each of these categories. *8 Finalists for categories No2 and No5 due to the number of specialist sectors.
This year, a special award entitled Recruitment Website of the Decade, will be presented. This will not be a nominated award, as the entrants will be shortlisted from those websites which have already been Finalists and Winners since 2001. Our Shortlisting Panel of industry experts will determine the websites that have made the greatest contribution to online recruitment in the UK for the last 10 years. Our Judging Panel will then assess these Finalists in the usual manner, from a candidate’s perspective.
Nominations are invited from the 1st June, and the Finalists will be announced on the 28th September. The Winners will be revealed at our awards ceremony on Thursday 4th November.
The National Online Recruitment Awards are hosted by AlljobsUK.com and 1Job.co.uk. The purpose of both sites is to route candidates as quickly and effectively as possible, directly to the vacancies they are searching for.
AlljobsUK.com, is the only comprehensive online portal to every recruitment resource in the UK. AlljobsUK.com provides candidates with access to every recruitment agency in the UK (c.15,000), all major publications, every job board, and the top 16,000 UK employers. These employers have over 20 million staff between them, which represents the bulk of the UK’s working population. Comprehensive listings of every UK recruitment website are also a prominent feature.
Given its independence and position at the centre of the recruitment industry since 2000, AlljobsUK.com has established the authority and credibility to devise and host these awards. The NORA’s are now established as the definitive public awards, within the online recruitment industry.
1Job.co.uk is the UK’s leading Job Search Engine, according to Hitwise, and hosts over 300,000 continually updated vacancies from Britain’s most popular job boards. Each month, 1Job.co.uk sends over 1 million candidate visits, directly to advertised vacancies.
