CampusCareerCenter.com becomes first campus recruitment company to establish beachheads internationally
Cambridge, MA (August, 2000) - CampusCareerCenter.com (CCC), which provides companies
with online recruiting services enabling the worldwide sourcing of students, is stepping up its global expansion plans. CCC has
entered into a series of agreements with companies in Scandinavia, England, India, and Japan, to create a network of CCC campus
recruiting sites; network partners are collaborating with CCC to support the development of the world's most diverse and
geographically expansive database of students in existence.
While partner sites will autonomously promote the CCC brand to companies and universities locally, a common database interface is
being created that will enable corporate recruiters throughout the world to gain access to candidates in any of the affiliate
databases. According to Matt Casey, CCC's President, "…the major chord that each deal strikes involves a common recruiting platform
and related database interface system powered by CCC…the web sites of partners will have the look and feel of the CCC parent site,
but will have fully translated content that will be maintained locally…the end game will reflect a technologically advanced network
of sites, synchronized in a way that will enable companies to effortlessly source students for employment from Peking University in
China to MIT in the US…a very relevant New World Economy value proposition. "
CCC has recently received several new (database) subscription contracts from clients such as AT&T, Grey Advertising, Raytheon,
Polaroid, Staples, Alcoa, Shell Oil, Bechtel, Skytel/Worldcom, Thomson Financial, and Appnet. According to Gary Geraci, who currently
heads up the company's sales initiative, "…the global companies that we work with tend to rely on local providers in the countries
where the actual sourcing requirement exists…There is a marketplace need to streamline this process by creating one centralized
location for companies to go to satisfy their demonstrated need to source students for worldwide employment…our strategy to replicate
our recruitment system on a worldwide level will allow us to capitalize on this untapped sales opportunity…Much in the same way that
our existing US customers require foreign human resources, clients of Academic Search (the online Swedish recruitment company we have
partnered with) like Eriksson and Volvo require a highly educated cadre of top international students as well…access to the foreign
academic community in the CCC database system will be a pre-requisite to efficiently staff students for global projects…"
