MAXIMUS Forms Alliance with myStaffingPro to Provide Extended Recruitment Reach and Enhance Applicant Tracking Experience
RESTON, Va. & LIMA, Ohio - (BUSINESS WIRE) - MAXIMUS Tax Credit and Employer Services, a division of MAXIMUS, Inc.
(NYSE:MMS),and myStaffingPro, a leader in applicant tracking
software, have announced an alliance that enables customers using the
myStaffingPro applicant tracking solution to expand their recruiting
efforts into non-traditional markets and realize significant cost
savings.
This strategic alliance allows myStaffingPro to integrate its applicant
tracking software with MAXOutreach , MAXIMUS Tax Credit and Employer
Services' job recruitment and compliance solution, as well as the
Company's Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC) screening services. MAXIMUS
and myStaffingPro will be introducing the integrated solution as
co-exhibitors at the National Retail Federation Annual Convention and
Expo in New York City on January 11, 2010.
MAXOutreach links employers and community-based organizations in their
mutual effort to assist individuals in need of employment. This
proprietary outreach tool casts a wide net across more than 72,000
community organizations to help employers uncover hard-to-reach, tax
credit-eligible applicants - many of whom may not have Internet access
at home and depend on such organizations for job-searching resources.
Additionally, MAXOutreach helps employers meet hiring requirements for
Office of Federal Contract Compliance (OFCCP) and Equal Employment
Opportunity (EEO) programs.
myStaffingPro customers will benefit from new WOTC-screening
capabilities, which will help ensure they fully capture tax credits for
which they are eligible, based on their current hiring practices. The
WOTC is a federal tax credit incentive for companies to hire individuals
from target groups who have consistently faced significant barriers to
employment. MAXIMUS was a key contributor to the development of the
Federal WOTC Program and has administered tax credits for employers for
over two decades.
"We are very excited to be integrating our MAXOutreach and tax credit
solutions with the myStaffingPro applicant tracking and recruiting
software solution," said MAXIMUS Tax Credit and Employer Services
President, Mark S. Andrekovich. "We have identified the perfect ally in
myStaffingPro and, together, we are putting the right pieces in place to
provide employers with the most unique and cost-effective recruiting
resources available."
"The alliance between myStaffingPro and MAXIMUS was an obvious decision,
one that provides our users with tools that truly cut their recruiting
costs and maximize WOTC tax credits," said Bob Schulte, CEO of
myStaffingPro. "We are pleased to be joining forces with the leading
WOTC provider, MAXIMUS, and we are excited to offer this integration to
our clients."
