LocalJobNetwork™, a company which operates 600+ local job boards has announced a rebrand as Circa. The company also just acquired America’s Job Bank in a new deal.
The company’s research shows that employers are shifting from diversity as a program to diversity as a business strategy. This repositioning better aligns its products and solutions to a core underlying diversity mission.
Circa’s new mission states that diverse teams have the power to transform business and has substantial supporting data. According to a McKinsey study, teams with racial, ethnic and gender diversity, have on a national average 33% higher performance. And there’s more. The Harvard Business Review denotes 19% higher revenues for companies with above average total diversity.
For organizations, especially OFCCP federal contractors, diversity is no longer about checking a box. It’s about generating results. Circa’s diversity recruiting technology and outreach management platform focus on job seekers from racial, ethnic, minority, veteran and disabled groups, giving companies solutions to find, hire and manage diverse workers.
“Diversity of thought, talent and team is often the determining factor between companies that lead their category and those that are left behind,” said Patrick Sheahan, CEO of Circa. “Technology advancements have brought people worldwide closer together and revealed cultural uniqueness. It is proven that through diversity, we are given the opportunity to understand each other better, build stronger relationships, and drive innovation and revenue growth to our organizations.”
As part of the rebrand announcement, Circa is also launching product enhancements the week of July 27, 2020.
1) PoweredBy 2.0 with a new modern look to seamlessly integrate a career page into a company’s website. Improved job seeker experience from searching open positions to the application process.
2) Outreach Management Dashboard – an interactive dashboard visually showing the results of employer-initiated outreach. Includes results from jobs sent through the system linkage agents and VetConnect™. Provides contact information for the outreach partner.
The name Circa is iconic with two levels. Circle/encircle speaks to layers of growth and capability and is time-based as a signal for a future that is more inclusive, equitable, and higher performing. Circa’s logo letters are kerned to create a visual rhythm with subtle cues to connect individuals and create a more powerful whole. The distinctive “i” speaks to the unique value of the individual.
Circa’s capabilities include:
- OFCCP Compliance: Mandatory job listings to appropriate ESDS (state job bank) and required outreach, record keeping, and documentation to maintain federal contractor compliance with Executive Order 11246, VEVRAA, and Section 503.
