- Increases in Corporate and Recruitment Firm Market Share; Infrastructure Enhancements to Continue Quality Assurance -

Hazlet, NJ, February 11, 2002 - iCIMS, a leading provider of human resource technologies and services, today announced that the company closed out 2001 with exceptional growth, adding 30 new customers in Q4 2001 alone. iCIMS provides state-of-the-art applicant tracking solutions to enterprises and independent staffing agencies, allowing customers across all industries to enhance the functionality and efficiency of their human resources departments and employee placement systems.

Among the companies that signed on during Q4 to incorporate the iCIMS talent management suite of services are Rite Aid, Imagine Broadband, Centillium Communications and Diversified Services, a specialized technical staffing agency.

Business Technology Group, a Jacksonville-based software development and consulting services provider, signed on in May 2001 to integrate iCIMS' software package into their existing infrastructure. Having since been named to the Purple Squirrel 100, a list of the country's 100 fastest growing IT service firms, the Business Technology Group was most interested in utilizing iCIMS' iResume capture tool. Through a dedicated email address, iResume can independently accept, review and parse key applicant information to human resources managers and/or company recruiters.

The full iCIMS' Talent Platform suite, including iResume and Candidate Self-Service, is the most advanced applicant tracking solution available to human resources and recruitment professionals today. iCIMS fully integrates with customers' candidate acquisition methods and existing legacy systems, streamlining the process of resume collection, candidate identification and dissemination of relevant applicant information. Upon receipt of a resume, iCIMS builds a candidate profile that can be updated as additional information is collected, thus ensuring that the best job candidates are never overlooked. Additionally, Candidate Self-Service allows companies to automatically post available jobs to the corporate web site as well as the most frequently used job boards and sites.
"We are very pleased with the way our product has been embraced by both corporate enterprises and staffing agencies alike," said Colin Day, president of iCIMS."As the staffing technology industry continues to mature, we are beginning to see a new breed of Fortune 100 customers emerge in the marketplace. Enterprise class corporations are now experiencing the functionality of recruitment technologies such as iCIMS, and we fully expect to see continued interest and adoption."

Also during Q4, iCIMS built upon their existing infrastructure to increase their user load and capacity, and allow for the growth and expansion of customers' recruiting capabilities. To ensure the maximum amount of uptime, full-time support functions and uninhibited traffic flow, iCIMS tripled their server capacity using state-of-the-art Dell Power Edge Servers and increased their bandwidth using a combination of telecommunications technology and hardware. Through constant communication with clients and a proactive approach to technology upgrades, iCIMS creates custom recruitment solutions with their customers' needs and interests in mind, a reputation they have had since their inception.
"We have had a very successful year in a time when many of our competitors continue to experience difficulty in the current economic climate," continued Mr. Day."We have captured a considerable amount of market share and are in a position where we will continue to take proactive steps to ensure the quality and integrity of our products and services."
