CareerAdvantage—the CPI Career Business and Intelligence Portal developed by Career Partners International and TrueAdvantage—is now available to candidates in Ayers outplacement programs.

A unique, comprehensive online resource, CareerAdvantage is a database that incorporates real-time information and job-search management tools.  Among the features it offers are

§         Company/Executive/Recruiter Intelligence—provides up-to-date information on more than 1.5 million businesses and over 10,000 recruiting firms in the U.S. and Canada, as well as corporate executives and entrepreneurs

§         Job Bank—aggregates information about open positions from job boards and company Web sites

§         IntelliWatch—automatically tracks the latest news on user-specified companies

§         Contact Manager—enables users to record and manage information, contacts, schedules, notes, etc., online

“CareerAdvantage is a personalized database,” observes David Lockwood, Ayers’ Director of Research and Internet Technology. “Users determine and refine the information they receive by establishing parameters and selecting preferences, categories, and subcategories. One real advantage it offers over the Career Search database we previously offered, as well as other subscription databases such as D&B, is the Hiring Intelligence feature.” 

Hiring Intelligence enables users to specify companies they’re interested in and then provides real-time reports about mergers and acquisitions, business deals, management changes, relocations, or other developments that might trigger employment opportunities at those companies. “It’s a terrific tool,” David says and adds that TrueAdvantage is working with CPI to continuously improve CareerAdvantage.
