CareerPlug and myCNAjobs Announce Partnership To Drive High-Volume Hiring For Home Care Agencies

PRESS RELEASE – CareerPlug and myCNAjobs announce the launch of a partnership to drive high volume hiring for home care agencies across the nation. CareerPlug’s powerful applicant tracking helps agencies hire the right people faster while myCNAjobs, the nation’s largest network of care workers, maximizes an agency’s exposure to maintain a steady pipeline of candidates. 

The new partnership, available exclusively to agencies with active CareerPlug and myCNAjobs memberships, includes unlimited job posting distribution and automatic candidate syncing from myCNAjobs into CareerPlug across all myCNAjobs product lines including the resume marketplace, job board, hiring events, and interview booking service.

“What gets measured gets managed, improved, optimized, and drives the best results, says Brandi Kurtyka, CEO of Tampa-based myCNAjobs.com. “Current hiring realities require agencies to seek out more ways to market themselves, their openings, and measure processes and results – this partnership delivers on all of these critical areas to help scale a business.” 

myCNAjobs represents 70% of America’s direct care workers and in addition to helping agencies market jobs to candidates that they’ve never interviewed, myCNAjobs will also surface “boomerang” candidates that may have fallen off in the hiring process and are back on the market and looking for work again

“myCNAjobs has been a great partner and we’re very excited to collaborate,” says Clint Smith, Founder and President of CareerPlug. “We both strive to help employers make the right hires to grow their business. This partnership is a huge win for our clients.”

The program is officially available to all agencies after a 2-month beta program that included an agency partner beta group that worked to refine the approach to help the industry. 

“The integration of our myCNAjobs and Careerplug platforms was a logical and seamless integration of the two recruiting tools upon which we rely the most heavily. The integration allows our recruiter to see our candidates from myCNAjobs within our main applicant tracking system in real time, saving time for us and job seekers.” – Salwa Williams, Owner at ComForCare Home Care – Southeast Atlanta, GA
