Small Businesses Simplify Hiring with the Google Add-On
A new Google add-on aims to streamline the hiring process for small to medium businesses.
By Lydia Richins, Marketing —
Some years ago when apps started flooding the market you could find an app for nearly any single task or whim you imagined. Now that’s changed. Not only is there “an” app for that, but there are several, or even dozens, of apps for any single task or whim imagined. Although they are meant to simplify life, they can often just clutter it. Transferring information from one app or website to another is both a hassle and opportunity for mistakes. It’s under this premise that Google created a new add-on called “Google Hire.”
What is Google Hire?
Google Hire is an applicant tracking system software for small businesses. Basically, this Google add-on allows you to interact with candidates without leaving your Gmail. Candidates’ key information can be accessed and seen with just the click of the button. No need for transferring information; Google Hire syncs up with Gmail information.
Features of Google Hire
Suppose you receive an email with a resume. Simply by clicking the Google Hire button you can add and file the candidate under a profile. That profile contains their name, email, and resume and can be organized by the job the candidate is seeking. You’re welcome to update their status as “new” and use an email template to send them a quick response thanking them for their application. All of this can be done in minutes, leaving you plenty of time to get on to your next task.

Other Technologies that Help You Hire
If you believe technology can help you with hiring, you need to look into IntegrityDetect™. It’s a new type of character or integrity assessment test that can predict an applicant’s true integrity with 30 percent more accuracy than other standardized tests. How? It uses scientifically advanced aIAT technology to assess an applicant’s true character in just 5-10 minutes. Employee integrity testing is essential to finding the right people for the job. Google Hire may help you organize applicants more effectively, but IntegrityDetect helps you choose the best hire more effectively. Go and look into both!
