What Happens to my Nominations?
As you will know, the National Online Recruitment Awards are entirely about the candidate experience of searching for a job on the Internet. That’s why, from the first NORAs in 2001, we always begin the process by inviting nominations from job seekers for the websites in each category. We genuinely want to know which recruitment websites are impressing you, and why. Over the past nine years, we have seen plenty of progress and innovation, where employers, recruitment agencies, online publications and job boards have sought to deliver an online service that delights and inspires, rather than disappoints and frustrates. Thankfully there are far fewer sites that frustrate, and the standard that candidates have come to expect is far greater as a result.
At the NORAs, we like to think that by representing the views and preferences of candidates, we have helped to encourage that …improvement, by holding up the very best sites as examples of excellence in the online recruitment sector.
This year, for the first time, we have a Consulting Panel, which has the task of reducing the thousands of nominations to the shortlist of Finalists, which are announced on the 28th September. Paramount in every case is “how well does this website serve job seekers?” Our Consulting Panel is comprised of independent industry experts, who have an in-depth knowledge of online recruitment.
Our Consulting Panel
Stephen O’Donnell Chairperson
Andy Headworth Sirona Consulting
Alan Whitford RCEuro
Matt Alder Penna Barkers
Steve Evans Net Natives
Paul Harrison Carve Consulting
Alex Hens 3D Marcomms
Ben Nunn Thirty Three
To ensure scrupulous fairness, this panel is quite separate from our Judging Panel, who will then score the Finalists, from the same candidate perspective, to decide this year’s winners. The Winners will be announced at our awards event on Thursday 5th November.
Stephen O’Donnell, Chair of The NORAs.
