<h3 id="two">Win a 3 Month Database Subscription!</h3>
<p>Our exclusive offer for eBoss Clients this month is a chance for you to win a 3 months subscription free of all charges.  To enter is simple – just go to our <a href="https://www.facebook.com/recruitmentdatabase">Facebook Fan Page</a> and Like us, and we’ll enter you in our draw.  The winner will be announced here in the next monthly instalment!</p>
<h3 id="three">Hot Tips This Month</h3>
<p>A quick list here of the most popular tips and videos viewed by our eBoss Clients in the last 30 Days – see below for the Top Tip of the month in Detail with a quick link to the help video.<br />
<a href="https://support.eboss.co.uk/entries/250207-day-1-getting-started-managers">Getting Started &#8211; Managers</a><br />
<a href="https://support.eboss.co.uk/entries/250217-welcome-to-eboss">Welcome to eBoss</a><br />
<a href="https://support.eboss.co.uk/entries/40411-candidates-adding-a-candidate">Adding a candidate</a><br />
<a href="https://support.eboss.co.uk/entries/20615486-webmail">Webmail</a></p>
<h3 id="four">New Features</h3>
<p>Over the last few months, the Database Support team have been working hard and fast on a few nifty timesaving features that are planned for the near future.</p>
<p>These include the ability to include a <a href="https://support.eboss.co.uk/entries/20508432-job-spec-attachment-when-emailing-candidate-re-interview">Job Spec when emailing a Candidate</a> re an Interview, and much easier <a href="https://support.eboss.co.uk/entries/20381698-attach-documents-to-candidate-and-client-interview-confirmation-emails-when-creating-an-interview-as">Attachments to emails</a> when creating an Xstatus event.</p>
<p>We’re excited to announce that we have launched our <strong><em>new fully integrated Live Chat service</em></strong>.  This offers much tighter integration with the Helpdesk in general and we are sure you’ll find this will help us to deliver even better support to you.</p>
<h3 id="five">Telephone Support Expanded</h3>
<p>We  offer free telephone support to all our clients.  Telephone support is available after a ticket has been opened – simply open a ticket and call us with the ticket number to gain access to Telephone Support.</p>
<h3 id="six">Top Tip – Clearing Your Cache</h3>
<p>The &#8216;cache&#8217; is what Firefox, Internet Explorer and other web browsers use to speed up your experience when browsing the web.</p>
<p>The cache can contain images, and code for the pages you are viewing.  A local copy of these are made on your PC so that they do not have to be downloaded over your internet connection every time you visit www.google.co.uk for example.</p>
<p>However, if an update is made by our database development team and rolled out to your database, you may sometimes experience an error and need to clear this cache so your browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox etc) has a copy of the most recent page.</p>
<p>To do this, see this short video &#8211; the process only takes a minute.<br />
<a href="https://support.eboss.co.uk/entries/20865813-general-database-errors-how-to-clear-your-cache">General Database Errors &#8211; How To Clear Your Cache</a></p>
<h3 id="seven">Guest Posts</h3>
<p>Would you like to appear here on the eBoss Newsletter?  If you have an article or post you feel provides value to recruiters, simply email it to <a href="mailto:support@eboss.co.uk">support@eboss.co.uk</a> for review.</p>
<h3 id="eight">Feedback</h3>
<p>We love to do the best we can here at eBoss and it’s always rewarding to get some useful, constructive feedback from our Clients.</p>
<p>We’d love to hear your suggestions for any improvements you think could be made to either your database, or our support – just let us know in our <a href="https://support.eboss.co.uk/forums/49802-feature-requests">Suggestions Forum</a>.</p>
<p>You can also check if a feature you’d like to see has already been voted on by other eBoss users here, and whether it is already planned for a future release.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Many more news reports have been issued this week with regard to the jobs market. While some have inevitably been bad news, the overall picture seems rather better than it has been in the past few months.</p>
<p><strong>Remploy closes factories in Wales</strong></p>
<p>The announcement that Remploy, a major employer of disabled people in various factories in Wales, is to close seven factories has been met with huge disappointment and anger. The grants that help to run these factories have been cut, resulting in the potential for way over a thousand jobs to go.</p>
<p><strong>Integral moves in to save jobs at MJN Colston</strong></p>
<p>Two contracts from the Ministry of Defence were lost by MJN Colston, a maintenance company, when it went into administration last month. However a company called Integral has now taken on the two contracts and been able to save the jobs of 47 people in the process.</p>
<p><strong>Capita call centre calls in some new jobs</strong></p>
<p>Good news for those near the Forres Enterprise Park in Scotland. The call centre is adding 140 new positions to its roster in the near future. A six figure package has been given to the company by the Highlands and Islands Enterprise to make sure the new employees will receive the best training.</p>
<p><strong>Nissan creates 2,000 new jobs at its factory in Sunderland</strong></p>
<p>This piece of good news comes as the result of plans to create a new Nissan car at the factory. Four hundred of the new positions will be at the factory itself, while the remainder will open up at various places in the supply chain.</p>
<p><strong>Are there more permanent jobs in the northern half of England?</strong></p>
<p>It would seem so according to the latest information. Permanent job positions seem to be rising faster in Northern England as opposed to the southern regions. This picture is mirrored in terms of temporary jobs as well. This picture has been supported by evidence gathered over the past seven months.</p>
<p><strong>Are we starting to emerge from the worst period of job losses we have seen in some time?</strong></p>
<p>David Lyons, MD of online recruitment software firm <a href="http://www.eboss.co.uk">eBoss</a> thinks this week’s news could indicate early signs of a jobs recovery. “It is very early days yet and this is something that should be stressed,” he said. “But all in all things do appear to be gradually moving in the right direction.”</p>
