Bond Awarded Membership to APSCo

APSCO 200x200Bond International Software, the worldwide recruitment agency software provider today announces its membership to The Association of Professional Staffing Companies (APSCo).

As an affiliate member of APSCo, Bond will receive a range of recruitment system benefits, including extensive networking with industry peers through regular meetings and special interest forums. There will also be the opportunity to discuss recent trends and industry standards with APSCo – with a view to developing and promoting suitable best practice. As such, the membership will give Bond a strong competitive edge over many in the marketplace and will ensure that the Bond portfolio accommodates the changing face of the industry as rapidly and reliably as possible.

Bond has recently announced a number of additions to their staffing agency software portfolio, including dedicated software for the field of executive search with the development of Bond Vantage. Bond Vantage has a set of features that are specifically aimed at all levels and areas within an executive search consultancy, from administration to research and consultancy. This allows vital candidate or corporate intelligence to be accessed in a timely manner, maximising the visibility of the executive search consultancy’s information. Technological enhancements to the Bond Adapt recruitment system are also currently being implemented; which are due for release at the end of 2010. As a direct result of the opportunities that Bond’s APSCo membership will bring, further industry- and vertical-specific products are likely to be developed to accommodate particular needs.

Ann Swain, CEO of APSCo, comments, “Bond were able to show several glowing references for their excellent portfolio and recruitment system service delivery and passed all requirements to evidence that they adhere to a clear code of practice in order to promote professionalism. We are therefore delighted to award them APSCo membership – Bond is a global leader in recruitment software and we are certain that they will be a highly valuable asset to the APSCo association.”
