A new free recruitment matching site has officially launched for the construction industry. MyJobHomePage.com, which initially focuses on the South of England, provides a percentage match score of a candidates suitability to a role.

Managing director Ashley Hurrell, who previously worked in construction and property recruitment, told Recruiter that the matching algorithm behind the site has been in development for a number of years. “I believe recruitment agencies are needed for specialist, hard-to-fill roles but there are also a lot of roles in the construction industry that can be matched using this algorithm,” he said. “It’s about helping construction companies save money and therefore helping them to grow.” 

Among those employers to sign up to the service is house builder Barratt. It is free to both direct employers and jobseekers, and its revenue will come through featured advertising.
