GlossaryTech — An Online Glossary For Tech Recruiters

Being engaged in tech recruitment, you need to constantly expand your technical horizons. If you aren’t a tech wiz, it’s easy to ‘trip over’ IT industry buzzwords again and again while reading developers’ CVs. More specifically:

  • You can hardly keep pace with all of the updates that going on in the IT world every day.
  • One often hears developers complain about tech recruiters confusing Java with JavaScript, offering irrelevant vacancies, and so on.
  • Even if you’re not a ‘green’ recruiter, it’s easy to get confused by EJB, JSF, or jBoss, and be unable to refer them to the appropriate technology. Not to mention Cucumber, Tomcat, Elixir and Sinatra :)

“GlossaryTech is the first online; live tech glossary built for recruiters and sourcers. It’s kind of like Wiki for the recruitment industry,” Dean Da Costa wrote in his article.

One needn’t go into programming to equally interact with candidates for tech positions; all that is needed is a little bit of passion and the right tools, one of which may well be GlossaryTech.

GlossaryTech enables to quickly find necessary tech terms and their meanings, add new terms, edit others, print, download and share them with each other. What’s more, all terms in the Glossary are logically divided into groups.

The main idea of this technology dictionary is its similarity to crowdsourcing platforms. To keep the Glossary relevant, it’s curated and constantly expanded by the global recruiting community, as well as software developers.

The mission of GlossaryTech is to make complex tech definitions clear, while providing tech recruiters and sourcers with a go-to guide to understanding the latest and most common terms listed in software engineers’ profiles.

It’s time to break down the walls between developers and tech recruiters, join forces and go pro! There’s no doubt that all of us will benefit from it, isn’t there?
