Locating a skilled candidate can be one thing, but finding someone who is happy to stay in a new position is another. Without the right tools to predict an applicant’s compatibility to a role you are left with a guessing game which has historically resulted in costly employee turnover.   Hiring managers have an incredible amount of applicant information available to them, however Gartner has reported that only 21% of human resource managers feel their companies are using talent analytics enough to make informed business decisions. Predictive analytics in recruitment can provide insight to enhance the effectiveness of your recruitment and…  Read More

Is reading resumes and conducting interviews really the best way to get the right people in the right places in our organisation?

CuriousThing, an autonomous, AI and machine learning driven spoken-word interviewing system seeks to bring objectivity into the equation, removing bias and improving Inclusion and Diversity as a result.

A national retailer has slashed its recruitment advertising spend by 95% and vastly improved its candidates’ cultural fit since automating its screening and selection processes. Spendless Shoes national store development and marketing manager Jaimee Charlton has become an advocate for selection software Expr3ss! since her company introduced it 10 years ago, but says she still encounters many Talent Acquisition teams fearful of using technology to streamline their functions. “There is a bit of nervousness about, ‘well what’s my job if it’s not reading resumes?’, and I just think there’s so much more important work you can do.” The employers likely to achieve the greatest…  Read More
