Yorkshire recruitment company launches time-saving recruitment technology

Yorkshire-based online recruitment company Blue Octopus has now launched its web-based end-to-end recruitment technology ‘Octo’. Octo enables companies to have total control of their vacancies leading to better hires and a more streamlined recruitment experience.

Octo is an advanced candidate management system that provides a range of tools for companies taking on new recruits. Its core function is to act as a platform for candidates to submit applications and manage their job seeker profiles, and for employers to score, shortlist, approve and decline applications as well as manage all their vacancies and candidates.

The web-based software package has been developed through Blue Octopus’ vast experience within the industry and alongside HR professionals to be the perfect end-to-end package. This means businesses will be provided with more tools than ever to help them manage their hiring processes.

Among the advanced features that Octo offers are the ability to build a talent pool, SMS candidate communications and advanced recruitment reports. Octo can also be fully customised to the clients brand by Blue Octopus’ in-house design team.


Company Director and Owner Chris Coleman commented: “It’s fantastic to see the Octo Recruitment Technology has been well received by all our clients covering a wide range of industry sectors

“This is the start of a new phase for Blue Octopus, as the multi-tiered Octo suite continuously adapts to the ever changing world of recruitment.”

Chris Coleman added: “Recruitment is constantly evolving and we needed to ensure that Octo was built to assist clients with their ever-increasing and demanding recruitment processes – not only cost effective but also save them valuable time within the HR and recruitment roles they perform each and every day. ”

Blue Octopus is one of the UK’s leading online recruiters and specialises in easy-to-use software solutions designed to match employers to quality candidates. The company also provides a Yorkshire-based, award-winning service team that is always at hand to support the recruitment technology.
