Talent Acquisition: Sourcing, Recruiting, & Hiring Manager Collaboration 🔎

Vacancies List: Prioritize essential Vacancies easily

Our new Vacancies list helps you understand your pipeline’s health, and see which vacancies should be prioritized.

It also ensures everyone is speaking the same skills language, and is designing jobs using skills. This means better collaboration between TA teams and Hiring Managers, to help you find better talent, faster.  

TA teams and Hiring Managers can easily see what vacancies are at risk, and which ones are not meeting targets, to stay ahead  of requests.

📍Live on Sandbox now, and available to all users on September 19 (we will provide an easy way to switch back to the old experience).

Smart Profile: Quickly review profiles, without opening a resume

Help Recruiters, Sourcers, and Hiring Managers save time and understand candidates’ skills and potential faster, with an at-a-glance view of the most relevant information from each candidate’s profile.

Shortlist Review: Attract high quality candidates and recalibrate searches faster than ever

Whether it’s engaging with Hiring Managers, soliciting meaningful feedback, or dealing with disconnected data silos, sharing and reviewing candidates can be time consuming, difficult, and plain frustrating. That’s why we’re making changes to reduce the time it takes to review candidates, and ultimately time to hire.
