Analyst Insight: Talent Intelligence Fundamentally Shifts How Organizations Should Measure Success

As 2023 rang in, so did the hype over artificial intelligence, particularly with generative AI (such as ChatGPT). Seemingly overnight, the long-gathering buzz surrounding AI’s applicability not only to the world of work, but also to business and everything else, became nearly deafening. AI has become seemingly pertinent to just about everything — and it probably is. As more industries begin to realize the opportunities this rapidly developing technology presents to their operations and bottom lines, questions abound. Front-and-center among them is: where to start? In human capital management (HCM), the answer is, just about anywhere. We see vendors applying AI to their solutions for payroll, scheduling, employee self-service, performance management, benefits administration — the list goes on. Name a subdomain of HCM, and there’s […]

Case Study Vignette: Harri – Helping a Private Equity Fund Protect and Grow the Value of Its Restaurant Investments

Private equity can be a tough business. So is the restaurant industry. Imagine combining the two. A private equity firm first and foremost must have wealth. And it must be adept at conserving and building that wealth. Those are the main criteria for success. As for running a restaurant, the margins can be thin. This is why, for any restaurant, among the most time-consuming activities (and greatest operational costs) are those associated with employing people effectively and compliantly. Scheduling is a big one here. Putting together employees’ hours is another. With non-exempt staff’s fluctuating hours and toggling between workweeks considered part-time and full-time under the law, benefits administration can be a big challenge, too. At a restaurant, these operational costs have a way of easily […]

How do I make it easy for employees to see schedules, trade shifts, and communicate with managers?

Immedis: Memoirs From the Outside Looking In

“The days are long, but the years are short.” ― Gretchen Rubin, New York Times Best-Selling Author Many of us have heard some rendition of this saying. Plenty of us have thought the idea with no prompt whatsoever. The version above encapsulates the concept as good as any and is attributable to acclaimed author Gretchen Rubin, whose work I have not read. Surely her books must be profound. What else is profound? The trajectory of Immedis is. Sometimes, the people you meet when you’re in the thick of starting something new leave an impression that sticks with you. I stopped short of titling this blog post “A Love Letter to Immedis,” because it’s not quite this. Plus, it would be a little bit weird. But […]

#HRTechChat: A Deep-Dive Into PandoLogic Owner Veritone’s Acquisition of Broadbean

At the very tail end of May 2023, the enterprise artificial intelligence software and services vendor Veritone announced the acquisition of Broadbean, a global recruitment technology company. Given that PandoLogic joined the family of Veritone companies in mid-summer 2021, we invited an expert each from PandoLogic and Broadbean to appear on the #HRTechChat video podcast and discuss synergies between the two now-Veritone companies. Joining us for this episode were Faisel Samseer, director of partnerships, development and growth for Broadbean, and Nikos Livadas, vice president of partner development for PandoLogic.

Anatomy of a Decision: Frontline Employee Experience Platform Harri Drives Operational and Financial Excellence for Jersey Mike’s Subs

What You Need to Know At what point does a business pause to consider the costs of managing HR processes on paper and in digital spreadsheets? Where does the push come from to trigger an analysis of manual processes vs. automation? In many cases, manual processes work just fine and a ‘don’t fix it if it ain’t broke’ perspective leaves those processes neglected until a problem arises. Because something is working, however, doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s efficient. What if transitioning human capital management (HCM) processes from manual to automated can save a significant amount of time, money, and frustration for your business? HCM automation enables swift execution of scheduling and recruiting processes that currently consume large chunks of time for businesses. Automation alleviates complex […]

#HRTechChat: James Galvin, CEO and Co-Founder of Starcircle

The talent acquisition of today is nonlinear. By this, we mean it’s all one thing, not a siloed process with many activities taking place in an orderly fashion or readily apparent, repeatable sequence. James Galvin should know. Our guest for this episode of the #HRTechChat video podcast, James is CEO and co-founder of Starcircle, a Cork, Ireland–headquartered vendor of cloud software and services designed to result in truly effective talent acquisition campaigns by looking at these as holistic efforts and considering sourcing first, and not last — an idea embodied in a term Starcircle uses: long-tail talent. Take artificial intelligence, for example. It’s difficult to discuss modern talent acquisition without mentioning AI. This is because AI has entered the fray of talent acquisition for good. […]

Market Alert: UKG Disrupts competitive landscape in Global HCM with Acquisition of Immedis

What Happened In early June 2023, UKG, provider of full-suite software for human capital management, announced its intent to acquire Immedis, provider of global payroll technology and services. Following the completion of the acquisition will come the availability of UKG OneView, an evolution of Immedis’ groundbreaking new software-as-a-service (SaaS) product for global payroll. Background Bereft of in-house capabilities to support global payroll, many vendors of full-suite software for HCM encounter limits to their aspirations to expand internationally. To combat this, some partner with global payroll point solutions. For a while, this was the case with UKG and Immedis, perhaps the most capable of the notable late-stage startups in global payroll. Immedis’ technology and services support global payroll in more than 20 languages across 160 countries. […]

#HRTechChat: Make Work Better with Betterworks’ Doug Dennerline & Jamie Aitken

Both my guests for this episode have appeared on the #HRTechChat video podcast previously — here, here and here — and it only made sense to host the two of them this time, at the same time. Why? Betterworks CEO Doug Dennerline and Vice President of HR Transformation Jamie Aitken have co-authored and published a book titled “Make Work Better,” and our discussion revolved around it. Let’s get something out of the way first. Employers have six ways to Sunday to make work better: make scheduling better for work-life balance, make onboarding better for immediate employee engagement (and faster time-to-productivity), make payroll better so employees get paid incorrectly less often, make on-the-job learning better so staff can build their careers… Have I missed anything? Probably, and […]

#HRTechChat: Adam Famularo, CEO of WorkFusion

For many, it is natural to see advancements in artificial intelligence and worry over their impact on people in the world of work. Even so, years from now we may well look back on “the past of the future of work” and understand that many, possibly most, of these fears were unfounded—or misplaced, at least. This episode of the #HRTechChat video podcast is about that. Joining us was guest Adam Famularo, CEO of WorkFusion, whose “AI Digital Workers” are just plain better—more accurate, more efficient—than any human could be in monitoring for financial crime. Before you lament this loss of jobs that real people could do, understand: it’s sleepless work; in fact, it needs to be. Then, ask yourself: is there really any love lost? […]

Analyst Insight: Rolebot – Helping Employers Engage with Passive Talent — the Best Talent — at Scale

What is passive talent? They are defined as high-performing already-employed people who are not actively seeking a new job.

To reach and attract passive talent, your recruiters will need the latest tools available: artificial intelligence and additional innovations in the technology for talent acquisition. Applied correctly, these tools are the deciding factors today enabling organizations to beat their competition in hiring from the passive talent pool.
