Talent acquisition software
Modern recruitment agencies use software tools to automate the methods of sourcing, screening, interviewing, engaging, and onboarding talent.
Let us look at how talent
acquisition software can help in recruitment.
Finding candidates
Finding candidates, also called sourcing, is the process of matching
requirements with qualifications. Newer talent acquisition software can find
many suitable candidates, improving both scale and speed. The accuracy of
matching skills to specifications is also much higher. Some studies show that
using software tools brings an almost 70% reduction in time taken for screening
potential employees
Selecting
Talent management companies now use good
Application Tracking Software (ATS) for candidate management. The software
comes equipped with dashboards that report real-time metrics time between
posting and ad and filling the position, the ratio of applications to final
interviews, and others. These help in improving the recruitment process. Some
of these also screen resumes, schedule interviews, and help in different ways
to accelerate selection. ATS also helps in talent rediscovery, where the resume
database automatically screens candidates who had applied for another role
within the company but maybe more suitable for the current vacancy.
Communication
Communicating with candidates, also called engaging, is taken care of by
new technology by using CRM and employer branding platforms. Even if they are
not hired immediately, these tools will move them into an identified talent
pool that may be accessed later. Some recruiting
apps use chatbots to engage with candidates by answering queries, giving
information about the vacancy, and taking them through the recruitment stages.
Employee orientation
New hires are typically taken through an induction program to orient
them to their new company’s policies and familiarize them with the
organization’s structure. The software
tools used could be online seminars and tutorials.
