Key Challenges Companies Are Facing Across Talent Acquisition & Management
Research Shows Phenom Reduced Time to Hire, Increased Retention
Phenom facilitated faster hiring by accelerating efforts to identify, engage with, screen, and schedule interviews with candidates, and enabling development of larger and more qualified candidate pools.
“We now have 1.5 million people in our talent pool, which helps us a lot, especially with Phenom’s AI-driven skills and job matching,” reported a global HR systems manager at a logistics company.
Phenom improved the organization's ability to fill open positions with quality internal candidates instead of hiring talent externally, decreasing costs of new-hire onboarding, training, and time to productivity.
A chief talent acquisition officer at a healthcare organization said: “Our [Talent Marketplace] improves retention, because it used to be if our employees couldn’t find their next opportunity within our organization, they could certainly find it outside. So, we feel that we’ve been able to improve retention and keep our coworkers here, by driving up our internal transfers.”
With Phenom, the organization gained insights enabling it to target spending on job boards and social media that surface high-quality candidates cost-effectively.
“Phenom has absolutely changed where and on what we spend money, and when to attract talent,” said a senior director of talent acquisition for a transportation company.
A global HR systems manager at a logistics company said that before Phenom, 50% of that organization’s knowledge worker hires had involved paying external recruiters to help identify and screen candidates. Now with Phenom, only 20% do.
Phenom saved the organization’s recruiters time sourcing and nurturing candidate leads, communicating with candidates, scheduling candidate interviews, and analyzing where leads are in the hiring process and who ultimately gets hired.
“Sourcing efforts that previously took two hours can be done in 30 minutes using the CRM, especially by using its AI," revealed a director of talent acquisition strategy and operations at a healthcare organization.
