The move, which helps address pain points on both sides of the historically tight Canadian labor market, is part of ZipRecruiter’s international expansion of its marketplace. With Canada’s national unemployment rate near its forty-three year low at 5.8%, and more jobs being created than there are available workers, companies are struggling to fill open jobs, while job seekers in certain industries are facing localized shortages of job opportunities matching their skills and experience. ZipRecruiter connects millions of job seekers to highly relevant jobs through its #1 rated job search app in Canada and partnerships with popular employment sites, including Google job search, Kijiji, and over 50 of the country’s top job boards. On the employer side of the labor market, the company’s dedicated local sales team supports the specific hiring needs of Canadian businesses of all sizes.

For the first time, enterprises will be able to see how each of their skills assessments are performing for different roles — from a senior engineer to a DevOps intern, and everything in between. Recruiters and hiring managers can gain insight into each stage of the recruiting process to improve candidate conversion and increase the quality of hires for every role. Using the Test Health Dashboard, recruiters and hiring managers can track, analyze and adjust how they’re delivering on candidate experience, including the effectiveness of their skills tests and their correspondence throughout the hiring process.

Many women find themselves at a point in their career where they’re just stuck. Sometimes it has to do with moving up the ranks in a company, returning to the workforce in general, or even striking out in their own venture. That inflection point is why Lisa Skeete Tatum created Landit, which provides career coaching and a playbook for women trying to reach the next step in their career.
Lisa Skeete Tatum, Founder and CEO of Landit, steps onto the New York Launch Pod to discuss her online platform to help women increase their success and engagement in the workplace while also helping companies develop and retain their female employees. Lisa first formulated the idea for Landit based on her own career "inflection point" after over a decade as a venture capitalist, Lisa found herself feeling a little "stuck" as she was deciding what her next chapter would be. Even with a Bachelor of Science from Cornell University, an MBA from Harvard University and being selected as a Henry Crown Fellow as the Aspen Institute, Lisa found this inflection point to be quite challenging. Lisa was not alone in her feelings. Today, we have the largest number of professional, educated women not firing on all cylinders. According to Lisa, women are 51% of the workforce yet only 16% of upper management, with 90% of women experiencing workplace navigation issues. In response to this problem, companies and women are left asking "where do we start?" With a comprehensive and individually tailored platform, Landit provides a unique solution. Landit provides a 'playbook' that enables people to more successfully navigate the workplace by democratizing access to resources, tools and know-how. The platform elements such as executive coaching, personal profile building, matched opportunities, and other keys to success including building your board of advisors and personal brand. By bundling all these resources together, Landit has blossomed into a turnkey way to make a major impact on individuals and companies alike. Listen to the episode to hear how Lisa was able to pull all the resources together, how Landit is transforming careers and workplaces, and how you can build a more fulfilling career.
