Breaking App News — that’s right app news — from Chad & Cheese Global HQ
QUESTION: Who is going to Vegas in September?
ANSWER: A shit ton of HRtech vendors that’s who… but why?
Well over a 4 day period – Sept 10-14 – there are at least 5 different HR tech-like events scheduled… and probably even more that I don’t even know about.
What are these events you speak of Chad:
» Sep 10-11 – Collaboration Zone – 1:1 meetups w/ current & potential partners, peer-to-peer round table discussions on hot topics
» Sep 10-11 – HR Marketing Matters – by HRMI: HR Marketing Institute
» Sep 10-11 – InfluenceHR – by The Starr Conspiracy
» Sep 11-13 – HR Technology Expo
» Sep 11-13 – SuccessConnect – by SAP SuccessFactors
With all of the hustle and bustle of Vegas combined with all of these shows, vendors and HR professionals how in the HELL am I supposed to plan meetings? Where do we meet? Who will be in town? What events will they be attending?
First and foremost…. BREATHE, you need to relax
ANSWER: There’s a new app for that it’s called HRtech Collaboration Zone… Holy shit that’s long…
HRtech Collaboration Zone is FREE and allows users to browse or should I say swipe through profiles of people in town who could be at any event — Swipe left to SKIP a contact or right to request to roundtable a meeting with that person.
But wait a minue – scheduling a meeting in Vegas can be a pain in the ass, mainly because I don’t know WHERE to meet? No matter what event you’re attending you can use the App – it has a ton of meet-up spots – so no matter where you are you can find something close.
Last but not least, I downloaded the app just to make sure it didn’t suck… And, It really doesn’t suck – actually it’s kind cool. So if you’re going to be in Vegas in September go to Google Play Store or Apple App Store NOW and download the HRtech Collaboration Zone app.
Chad & Cheese will be there so look us up – you bring the beer!

On to the NEWS..
Google launches job search for transitioning military veterans
For any enterprise company, job board, or staffing agency already using Google’s Cloud Talent Solution, SURPRISE this feature is live on your site right now. Transitioning service personnel can enter their U.S. military occupational code into the job search bar and receive targeted job search results.
That’s right, not a different search bar, no special handshakes necessary it’s LIVE!
What does a Google Talent Solution client have to do to make this search available? In the words of Google’s GTM man Tarquin Clark – “The answer is nothing. It just works!”
Now THAT is exactly how an API should roll…
Giving military veterans better job search is pretty awesome. After 20 years in the military myself and attempts to solve this exact puzzle, I’m happy to see Google in the game.
But there is a bigger scheme here. Remember Job Search isn’t the only BIG API Google Talent Solution is swinging around. Imagine Google Talent Solution’s candidate search matching veteran profiles to reqs. Could that ability pop-up into Hire by Google anytime soon?
Not too mention this new capability was launched without Google clients needing to lift a finger. No bullshit updates or launch schedule, “it just works”…
Last but never least Google for Jobs now ALSO has this military veteran search capability… We keep hearing the Talent Solution APIs and Search initiatives are not under the same umbrella, but it kinda feels like they are…
If you’re intrigued as much as I am don’t miss this week’s Chad and Cheese podcast dropping Friday – We’ll be talking in depth on all of these Googley points and more!

Is BING taking a page out of the Google’s Job Search playbook?
KRT Marketing provided Chad & Cheese a screen shot of a Google for Jobs style Search Engine Results Page on BING, and get this… Jobs are solely powered by LinkedIn… What? Yea, it looks for now that only LinkedIn jobs will be playing in this BING for Jobs sandbox kids.
What kind of impact will this have?
Bing has approximately 1.2 billion unique global visitors/month
Based on research KRT provided us here at Chad & Cheese Global HQ, during the last 12 months in the US, Google has 86% market share and Bing is at 7.5%. Globally, Google is at 90% and Bing takes 3%…
The big question, what if all search engines start providing job search? How will that impact the way we advertise, or as a vendor serve our clients? To understand more about Google for Jobs and this scenario check out the Recorded webinar on chadcheese.com entitled Google for Jobs – What you need to know… Pulled together by our friends at ukRecruiter – Gotta love a little Chad and Louise joint on camera, with a drive-by Stephen O’Donnell.
Thanks to Mona Tawakali – TA-WA-KALI high priestess of recruiting over at KRT for the screenshot and search intel. Mona. you. are. the. bomb!
IMPORTANT NOTE: I was not able to personally recreate Mona’s magic on BING, which means the model is probably in beta. No worries, Chad & Cheese will continue watching this space and encourage all of our listeners to do the same – we’re better together. If you see or hear something out there that just doesn’t look, feel, or sound right reach out to us on ChadCheese.com.
