Description

ALEX Desktop for Outlook is a powerful and innovative parsing solution designed specifically for recruiters and staffing professionals. This software offers a unique way to manage all resumes, contacts, and candidates through your existing Microsoft Outlook contacts folder.

With ALEX Desktop, you can easily convert all resume attachments into Outlook Contacts (vCards) within seconds. This means that you no longer have to spend hours manually entering contact information from resumes into your database. Instead, ALEX does the work for you by automatically searching through email attachments and parsing resumes into categorized contacts within your Microsoft Outlook contacts folder.

All contact information including name, address, phone number, and email are included in the contact entry with the full resume attached as notes. This makes it easy to quickly access candidate information without having to search through multiple files or databases.

ALEX Desktop is compatible with Microsoft Outlook 2000-2007 with enhanced features being added on a regular basis. The software is currently in BETA but available as part of a free trial to all staffing and recruiting professionals who want to streamline their recruitment process.

One of the key benefits of using ALEX Desktop is that it saves time by automating manual data entry tasks. With this software, recruiters can focus on more important tasks such as sourcing candidates or conducting interviews instead of spending hours entering data into their database.

Another benefit of using ALEX Desktop is that it helps improve accuracy by reducing human error when entering data manually. The software ensures that all contact information is entered correctly which reduces the risk of errors such as typos or incorrect phone numbers.

In addition to these benefits, ALEX Desktop also offers advanced features such as customizable parsing rules which allow users to tailor how resumes are parsed based on their specific needs. Users can also set up automatic reminders for follow-up tasks or schedule appointments directly from within their Microsoft Outlook calendar.

Overall, ALEX Desktop for Outlook offers an innovative solution for recruiters and staffing professionals who want to streamline their recruitment process while improving accuracy and efficiency. With its user-friendly interface and advanced features like customizable parsing rules and automatic reminders/ scheduling options - this software has become an essential tool in any recruiter's arsenal!
