Bullhorn Reach Selected as a 2011 MITX Innovation Awards Finalist in Two Categories
Bullhorn Reach Recognized for Innovation
BOSTON, May 16, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Bullhorn today announced Bullhorn Reach has been selected as a finalist in two MITX Innovation Award categories: Best Business Operations Simplifier and Most Insightful: Analytics and Business Intelligence. Held annually by the Massachusetts Innovation & Technology Exchange, the MITX Innovation Awards celebrates the innovations powering the future of marketing and revolutionizing the way we work and play.
"This year's finalists blew us away with their creativity, ingenuity and passion for innovation. They are truly reflective of the many exciting things that are driving our industry right now," said MITX president, Debi Kleiman. "We're proud to showcase the region's top innovations through this Awards program -- giving these innovators a place to shout loud and proud about what they've achieved."
Bullhorn Reach is a new social recruiting platform that will help hiring managers, employees and recruiters effortlessly harness social media and search engines to attract job candidates, empower employers to find top talent, and distill valuable business intelligence from contacts' social media updates. Currently in beta, Reach brings a new level of transparency to recruitment: now job seekers can identify recruiters with a proven track record in the employment areas they care about based on viewing the jobs they've filled and candidates they've placed.
"Being recognized as a finalist in not one, but two, MITX Award categories, alongside so many other pioneers in the Massachusetts tech scene, is an honor," said Art Papas, founder and CEO of Bullhorn. "Bullhorn Reach's innovation lies in the way it instantly empowers recruiters to source and nurture leads through the social landscape, rather than having to learn and use multiple tools -- and reflects Bullhorn's commitment to transforming the way employees and employers come together."
Bullhorn will be recognized with the other finalists in the categories of Best Business Operations Simplifier and Most Insightful: Analytics and Business Intelligence at the ceremony traditionally attended by over 350 of the region's top interactive marketing and technology professionals. Winners will be announced at the ceremony in the Westin Boston Waterfront on Thursday, June 16th at 6pm. Tickets can be purchased at www.mitxawards.org/innovation.
The 2011 MITX Awards are sponsored by: Digitas, Isobar, The Atom Group, DLA Piper, PricewaterhouseCoopers, Boston Innovation, and Metropolis Creative.
