1) Introduction

JobStreet was incorporated in Malaysia under the Act on 6 February 2004 as a public listed company principally involved in the provision of interactive marketing services focusing on interactive advertising, targeted database marketing and training advertising services. JobStreet's subsidiaries companies provide a host of synergistic operations relating to human capital ranging from online job postings, career website management, fresh graduate recruitment solutions, flexible staffing support and technology-assisted search and selection services.

JobStreet's subsidiary companies are the operators of the JobStreet.com online recruitment sites, covering employment markets in Malaysia, Singapore, India and Philippines.

The Group's roots can be traced back to the internet portal business in Malaysia which began in 1995 under the direction of JM's founder Mark Chang. It was during the infancy of the portal business, when it was identified by the management that online recruitment services had good revenue potential relative to the other portal product/ service offerings. By 1997, JobStreet.com had become the primary focus of the business with the formal incorporation of JM on 6 October 1997. Shortly thereafter, JM launched "SIVA", it's ASP-based recruitment management system.

2) Major Type of Information System

a) JobStreet ESSENTIAL is the core service offered by JobStreet as an online recruitment solution which consists of the following:-

SIVA - Recruitment management system

JobStreet has developed a proprietary browser-based web application tracking and resume management application tracking and resume management application that speeds the processing aspect of recruitment dramatically. Based on an ASP-model, this recruitment management system, called SIVA, which sits on JobStreet's server, is available to JobStreet's customers comprising potential employers who will be assigned with a unique password and user identification to access the system over the Internet.

Job Posting

JobStreet operates an exchange that facilitates a two-way exchange of information between employers (job posting and descriptions) and jobseekers (applications and resumes).

Job seekers who visit www.jobstreet.com can search the website for suitable openings. In addition, they are invited to register their job preferences and resume details in their personal MyJobStreet career management account. Once registered, registrants will have the benefit of LiNa, a personal job-tracking virtual agent. As soon as an employer posts a job description that matches the registrant's preferences, the registrant is notified by email of the positions. If the position is of interest to the registrant, she/ he will have the ability to apply for the job and submit her resume online.

b) JobStreet SELECT as a job portal offers an advantage over non-interest based recruiters. Whilst conventional recruiters have access to clients, access to a database of candidates is a much more difficult proposition for them. This on the other hand, has access to not only clients but also a large database of user accounts to shorten the process of identifying the suitable candidates faster than conventional recruiters.

c) JobStreet IMPACT also offers a career website management service where companies can license career website and candidate database management services from JobStreet instead of setting up and maintaining their career website themselves. Upon licensing these, HR personnel can post job postings on their own corporate website directly without involving web designers. HR personnel will also have the benefit of SIVA where they can screen and process candidates efficiently.

3) How can your information system support the company's business operation and decision making and give them a competitive advantage?

JobStreet leverages to a large extent on the Internet technology to provide to both employers and jobseekers a compelling solution for their recruitment needs. This solution is offered to its customers at a lower cost than the traditional method of recruitment helping companies to reduce their recruitment expenses and the time taken.

Employers and jobseekers registered with JobStreet can take advantage of their website's accessibility, functionality and wealth resources to enhance their job-matching experience, which has been easier with LiNa and SiVa.

Employers using the services of JobStreet can enjoy the exposure to a large pool of candidates matched to the career preference of more than 2.8 million user accounts in JobStreet's database.

JobStreet's sophisticated matching algorithms assist employers to recruit suitable candidates.

SIVA allows customers to reduce processing times in providing tools to manage the recruitment process. SIVA tracks employer advertisements, organizes applications, provides application tracking and filtering tools, enhance collaboration between different recruitment decision makers and schedules interviews with selected candidates with one master email.

Employers can reach cross border candidates without engaging local search firms or taking out recruitment advertisements in local newspaper. Access to overseas candidates including graduating students returning to the employer's location is also a popular application.

4) Purchasing of computer system is part of your information system implementation process. What are the corporate criteria involved in the process of buying the PC systems?
