Appcast Xcelerate

Data-driven, source-neutral job ad distribution

Need qualified candidates for all your open jobs? With Appcast Xcelerate, the entire web is your oyster.

What is it?

Xcelerate is programmatic recruiting software that ensures your job ads attract qualified candidates for all your open jobs. Xcelerate uses data and algorithms to determine where – among the 30,000+ job sites in our network – your job ads will reach the best candidates. Xcelerate’s programmatic rules ensure that budget is only spent on jobs that need more candidates and prevents overspending on jobs that don’t. 

And the best part: no software fees. You only pay when candidates apply. 

“Appcast’s pay-per-applicant model fits in perfectly with the data-driven approach to recruitment we have sought to develop, while enabling us to optimize our job ad spend. It enables us to connect with top talent more efficiently and cost-effectively.”

What is programmatic recruitment?

Job advertising made simple

It sounds like a complicated buzzword, but programmatic recruiting is simply a smarter and more efficient way to find applicants for all your open jobs across the web.
What is a job ad exchange?
It’s like a mutual fund vs. an individual stock
With a job ad exchange, job postings are distributed to ALL of the places where your prospective candidates hang out online, rather than a singular job board. Our transparent & source-agnostic exchange is automated so you can free up your time to focus on other important things.
“Appcast’s pay-for-performance job advertising model is amazing and the way of the future. It’s better, faster, and more affordable.”

Need more candidates from underrepresented groups?
For many companies today, the importance of a diverse pool of applicants can’t be overemphasized. That’s why we’ve built relationships with numerous job sites that focus on reaching candidates from underrepresented communities and have invested in technology and data sources to support tracking against diversity goals.

“With Appcast, we are able to look one step further in our recruiting funnel towards qualified applicants, which is what we really need.”
