Additional options include career portals, job listing services, candidate screening services as well as onboarding facilities for selected candidates. The product also has executive dashboards to monitor recruitment performance, and supports resource budgeting as well.

In comparison BirdDog provides similar features as a cloud based solution. However it also incorporates video interviewing to improve the candidate screening process, as well as a scoring system to help in candidate evaluation. Additionally the product supports mobile devices for both review & access by candidates & recruiting staff, as well as social media integration & employee referral services to improve candidate sourcing options.

Another competitor is Appliview which is available as both an in the cloud service as well as a hosted solution. While it provides many of the features of BirdDog, the product can be used by both company recruiters as well as recruitment agencies. Thus the product also has portals for agencies to review job listings and source candidates based on the requirements. Additionally the product supports “White Labeling” so that it can be branded as a client’s product if needed.

BirdDog does not support these features as it is focused only on internal recruitment for companies. However BirdDog can provide recruitment services for their clients if required on an outsourced basis using the same system.
