FAQALL➜
Can the system automatically generate documents such as CV’s?
Yes. Templates are used to automatically generate documents from the data stored in Placement Partner. A typical example of this is to automatically generate standardised CV’s which can be sent directly to your clients.
Can we store files in the Placement Partner database?
Yes. Placement Partner was designed to store candidate CV files and many other files with each candidate’s and client’s record.
Can anyone on the internet access our database?
No. Placement Partner is password-protected and is hosted on an encrypted secure connection which makes unauthorised access virtually impossible. An unfortunate reality today is that a server, located in your office building, is far more likely to be stolen than someone gaining unauthorised access to your data via a secure connection.Our servers, with your data on, are located in a high-security data center and we keep the location of our servers strictly confidential.
How does the pricing structure work?
Placement Partner is charged on a monthly subscription basis, based on the number of users.
APSO 2012 Conference a great success!
A big thank-you to our clients who stopped by at our stand at the APSO Owner/Manager Conference held last week at the O R Tambo Premier hotel in Rhodesfield. It was a rewarding time for us to be able to meet face to face with so many of our loyal clients and for us to speak to many prospective clients!
We were once again proud to be sponsors of the APSO Conference as the topic “The Challenge of Change” was discussed at length by knowledgeable and talented speakers such as Clem Sunter, Paul Naidoo and Pavlo Phitidis, amongst others.
It was also our privilege to give away a Gigabyte Laptop to the winner of our ‘lucky draw’. Congratulations to Elize who was our elated winner!

Careers24
We are thrilled to welcome Careers24, another of South Africa’s leading job portals now integrated with Placement Partner! Clients can look forward to even more advertising exposure by integrating with Careers24 through the Placement Partner system. This integration is quick and easy to set up and is as simple as dropping us an email on support@parallel.co.za to get the ball rolling.
This service is available to clients of Careers24. If you are not already a client of Careers24, the first step would be to speak to a sales representative of Careers 24. Once you’ve signed up as a client or if you are already an existing client, you will be asked to sign a consent form. After the technical procedures have been completed, Careers24 will then be able to pick up the vacancy adverts which are live on your website and publish them to their job portal. When candidates apply for any of your advertised positions they will be directed to your own Placement Partner candidate submission form which, once completed, can be found in your Post Box.
Access to the Careers24 job portal through Placement Partner forms part of the web integration service and is available at no additional charge from Parallel Software.
Happy recruiting!
Kind regards
Your Placement Partner Team
