Product Update: CareerPlug is an Indeed Star Partner!

CareerPlug is excited to announce that we have been recognized as a Star Partner with Indeed! As a Star Partner, we have completed all of the product integrations required by Indeed and have demonstrated that our applicant tracking software contains the powerful tools needed to attract and hire talented candidates. 

Indeed is the #1 job site in the world with over 250 million unique visitors every month. Their mission:

Indeed strives to put job seekers first, giving them free access to search for jobs, post resumes, and research companies. Every day, we connect millions of people to new opportunities.

The partnership makes sense, as CareerPlug’s mission is to help employers solve the #1 problem of running a business: attracting and hiring the right people. And as part of any successful recruiting strategy, businesses need their opportunities represented in the place that contains the most active job seekers.

“Indeed has been an important partner of ours for years, and we are grateful to be recognized by them as a Star Partner,” said Clint Smith, Founder and President of CareerPlug. “The Star Partner program is reserved for applicant tracking systems that truly make the process easier for candidates. We are grateful to receive recognition for doing the right things to help candidates and employers succeed in the hiring process.” 

An Indeed integration with CareerPlug allows our users to optimize their hiring process, create exceptional experiences for their candidates, and make the right hires faster than ever before. With CareerPlug’s software, employers are able to post a job to Indeed within just three clicks.

We know that over 70% of candidates apply using a mobile device and this rate is growing every year. We’re also seeing 70% of applicant flow for our clients coming from Indeed Apply. Both of these statistics indicate that job seekers today are busy, mobile, and savvy – which means they require a simple-to-engage process. At CareerPlug, we’ve designed a mobile-optimized application that allows candidates to apply within just three minutes. 

“Indeed and CareerPlug both value innovation and candidate experience, and I am excited to see our teams continue to grow together,” said Smith.

Chris Igou

VP of Business Development

Chris accidentally started a 20-year career in franchising when he was 18 years old and took a job painting houses for College Pro Painters. That job turned into the ownership of his first franchise (a house painting franchise). While at Monmouth College in IL, he operated his business, played on the varsity football team, and studied to become a teacher.

The taste of entrepreneurship and desire to coach others led Chris deeper into franchising, working with a few franchise brands helping them grow their businesses. He lived in the Chicagoland area his entire life until recently moving his family to Austin, TX.

In his free time Chris coaches youth sports, especially youth football, and spends as much time as he can with his wife and 2 children.
