Talent Pools

What is it and why is it important?

Having made investments in good candidate sourcing, employer branding and other hiring strategies, you will end up with more good fit candidates than you require immediately. Ensuring these applicants are quickly identified and immediately contacted for future vacancies is key to reducing long-term time-to-hire and cost-to hire. In fact, many organisations today aim to recruit 30% of their employees through their talent pool because they know that it is the most cost and time-efficient method.

How we can help

Sniperhire captures, stores and categorises every single application that is made through the system. Each applicant’s details, including their CV, are indexed enabling the recruiter to effectively talent mine using not only specific criteria-based searches but also free text queries.

Also, profiles with core competencies or skills that are aligned with the company’s future hiring needs can be identified and categorised, making future talent searches more efficient.

In addition, the system makes communicating and marketing to your talent pool quick and easy. For instance, once a requisition is approved, recruiters can literally email thousands of pre-qualified candidates from the talent pool in just a few clicks.
