The NORAs are now part of the TAtech Family!

The National Online Recruitment Awards are now part of the TAtech Family!

“Having worked closely together for the past 5 years, we felt it was time to put a ring on it (as they say) and make it official. TAtech and The NORAs have always had closely aligned aims; to encourage and promote the continual ethical development of the recruitment technologies which are engaged with by almost everyone either hiring, or looking to be hired. As Founder and Chairman of the NORAs, and also Chief Growth Officer of TAtech, it makes complete sense for both to be under the same umbrella” – Stephen O’Donnell

The challenges facing our industry are as exciting, and as daunting as ever, and the rapid advancement of AI throughout all technologies has accelerated the rate of change considerably.

The National Online Recruitment Awards in the United Kingdom are entirely dedicated to the continual improvement and evolution of online recruitment excellence, and the Candidate-Experience. Throughout the past 25 years we have seen the focus of progressive employers, recruitment firms and job boards evolve to recognise the inescapable truth, that technology plays an intrinsic role in almost every job search, and every hire. The NORA Academy views the recruitment sector from the perspective of the jobseeker, and aims to shine a light on the very best examples of excellence in our industry. The NORAs recognises the achievements of those very visible recruitment websites from job boards (more accurately referred to now as job advertising platforms), employers, recruitment & staffing firms, and publications. In addition, we also throw a spotlight on those technologies which, while unknown to jobseekers, still power so many of the recent advances to make each job search more effective, more accurate, and more satisfying for both recruiters and candidates.

As the definitive measure of the standards now expected by candidates, our Finalists and Winners have accurately charted the evolution in online recruitment technology over the past quarter of a century. With almost 500 members of the NORA Academy, we have a phenomenal community, which is fully committed to the future of recruitment.

Peter Weddle, Founder and CEO of TAtech, adds: “The NORAs are far-and-away the most prestigious accolade in the job board industry, and we at TAtech are thrilled that we are now one organization.  To mark that step, this year’s TAtech Europe & The EMEA Job Board Forum will be held on November 11-12 and the NORAs’ Awards Gala swill be held on November 13 in the same venue in London.  It’s a one-of-a-kind combination of learning, networking and celebration for job boards.”

TAtech is the global membership organisation for recruitment websites and recruitment technology companies. With over 350 members worldwide, TAtech holds events in North America and Europe, and is continually producing news, webcasts, and studies for, and on behalf of our vibrant community.

This year’s 25th annual NORAs will again be held in partnership with SmartRecruiters.
