Managing your organisations talent pool | HR Web Platform

Within your organisation, there is significant value in creating a personal talent pool, inclusive of the suitable but unsuccessful candidates that you may discover in a recruitment drive. You would know that they are a great match for your culture and workplace and could suit a future position rather than the open roles presently vacant and advertised.

The Talent Pool feature can help, by enabling you to copy and keep candidate information for future consideration, which will provide increased efficiency when recruiting for future roles. It guarantees you have fantastic candidates at your fingertips when you need to reconnect and enhances your speed to market when recruiting the best talent for your organisation.

Helpful Hint

When you are in the Talent Pool for the first time, you will see we encourage you to revisit candidates you have previously disqualified from other roles and add them to Talent Pools for possible future positions. It is important to maximise the possibility of always hiring the people best suited for every role and to stay competitive.
