Talent Acquisition
Talent Acquisition is a long-term strategic approach to recruitment. It involves identifying, attracting,
engaging and retaining highly qualified and talented individuals. More and more organizations today
are identifying the importance of developing a Talent Acquisition strategy aligned with the overall
organization goals. For this reason, the need for a qualitative recruitment and a streamlined process
is critical.
Today two of the top priorities for most organizations are the Acquisition of Talents and Talents
Management, especially for high profile positions. Acquiring and Retaining high quality talents
provide the most important key competitive advantage, but it is increasingly difficult to attract and
retain such individuals. So, to win this “War for Talents” among organizations, it is important to have
in place a system which does not only assist in attracting and building a database of high quality
candidates, but also provides the flexibility to manage the entire Recruitment process smoothly and
efficiently.
The emphasis is on the quality, skills and experience of the individuals considered for a position. An
effective E-Recruitment system must enable line managers and hiring managers to address these
aspects of numerous applicants collaboratively and make better informed decisions, faster. This
improves the competency of the Recruitment function, and gives organizations the required
competitive edge to succeed.
Growth of E-recruitment
The reason for the shift towards online recruitment activities, and use of Web 2.0 technology for
more Human Resource Management functions is mostly due to the inadequacy of the paper-based
process. Most hiring managers and line managers mention the lack of systematic log of information
and improper storage of paper applications leading to inevitable delays in application processing
time. This increases the time to hire and thus cost to hire, while compromising the quality of hire
due to incompetent practices.
The latest trend in Talent Management and Talent Acquisition software is Software as a Service
(SaaS). SaaS offers flexibility in which the application can be hosted and accessed by candidates and
users across the Internet. It is popular because it eliminates the necessity of installing and running
the software on the organizations’ own computers. This decreases the amount of software and
hardware maintenance usually required. In addition, the database can be maintained by the vendor
providing the software. Some competent providers of such E-Recruitment software, also known as
Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS), are Taleo-Vurv, Kenexa, Stepstone and aQayo. aQayo, author of
the present White Paper, is an independent new player in this field.
The number of Internet jobseekers is estimated to have increased between 2001 and 2006 by
266.7%, and the numbers are still growing. According to a survey conducted on the E-Recruitment
3
market, which is predicted to grow in scale and importance by 2011, major trends are forecasted to
include:1
More advanced tools for candidate management on corporate career sites
Increasing use of social networking technologies (Facebook, LinkedIn) to reach candidates
More opportunities for specialists in the market
In most organizations, the recruitment of candidates is an ongoing process to build a “talent pool” of
qualified applicants for later reference even if candidates are not suitable for the current vacancies.
Leading hiring managers and line managers who use Talent Management software today are
requiring integrated, user-friendly applications which provide a "single view of talent." This means
that they prefer to have an overall view of the entire recruitment process in one place. Most leading
vendors of E-Recruitment software cater to such clients by providing better, easy to use dashboards
which provide a full overview of the entire Recruitment functions at a glance.
Recently, a survey was conducted among several Hiring managers at NRG Engineering Pte Ltd.; a
consulting company specialized in the Oil and Gas industry, to identify how the E-Recruitment
software they used enhanced efficiency of their Recruitment activities. All unanimously agreed that
using ATS significantly reduced the time spent on each recruitment activity, and additionally smooth
the recruitment process thanks to the candidate’s information which is all shared by the managers.
E-Recruitment software enables efficient talent acquisition through faster and more reliable
processes. The Best Practices identified in this paper are based on this survey and on processes that
were found to be effective through research on leading providers of such systems.

E-recruitment aligned with Recruitment & Selection Policies
Automated systems greatly increase efficiency of the traditional recruitment methods and selection
tools. Due to the growth of the Internet, and the obvious benefits that Applicant Tracking Systems
bring, more and more organizations are streamlining their recruitment process with e-recruitment
software.
The E-recruitment software is usually integrated at all the stages of Recruitment and Selection
functions, as shown in the following diagram.
Figure 1: Using E-Recruitment to enhance the Hiring Process
In general, line managers send their Job Vacancies to the HR department. HR hiring managers create
a Job Requisition for each vacancy and evaluate applications by matching qualifications against the
criteria specified in Job Requisitions. Prospective candidates are added to the Talent Pool database
for further assessment. E-Recruitment software provides HR hiring managers the flexibility to pre-
filter candidates through online screening. It generally provides Hiring managers and Line Managers
a platform to manage and share all the information regarding candidates for the selection process.

E-recruitment Advantages
Cost-Effective
Applicant Tracking Systems reduce the cost of recruitment considerably by reducing the time it
takes to hire individuals. Much of the paper-work is eliminated, if not all, and the time needed to
perform administrative duties such as scheduling appointments and maintaining records is
significantly shorter. In addition, Job vacancies are posted online (on Job Sites or on the
company’s career sites).
Typically, cost savings are achieved through:
- Online screening and pre-filtering of unsuitable candidates and thus allowing line managers
to save time by concentrating on quality hiring
- Sharing of information through the E-Recruitment system between Hiring managers, Line
Managers and applicants, reducing the usual time taken for communication between parties
Efficient
E-recruitment allows candidates to access a richer source of information via the Internet on the
Company career websites. They can view the status of their applications, edit and update their
profiles as necessary. These sites may also be utilized to provide candidates Realistic Job
Previews (RJP). A RJP is a recruiting approach used to communicate the different aspects of a
job. The aim is to provide applicants with a better picture of what to expect when working with
the Company. The corporate career site is an effective tool to provide RJPs because it can be
customized to reflect the organization’s culture and even provide success stories of top
performers.
On the Hiring manager’s side, online applications can be acknowledged and processed more
efficiently using E-Recruitment software. Pre-filtering/screening of candidates using job specific
questions and advanced selection techniques allows the employer to focus quickly on the most
appropriate applicants only. Moreover, building a talent pool of candidates by retaining
outstanding candidates for the future allows managers and hiring managers to contact them
later when an appropriate vacancy arises.
Line Managers have better access to the status of their Job Requisitions thanks to E-Recruitment
software. Although they have a more passive role in the recruiting activities, they have to be
constantly updated. E-Recruitment software allows Line Managers to access candidate data as
well as view progress of the recruiting activities at any time. At the same time, the software
allows line managers to view in real-time the candidate profiles and their status in the
Recruitment process. Managers can also share information with each other, and view notes or
comments made by the other managers regarding candidates under consideration.
6
E-Recruitment software generally greatly enhances candidates-recruiters relationships by
providing templates for all types of communication with applicants. Whether it is in response to
applications received from candidates or to request more information, competent E-
Recruitment software provides a list of relevant email templates to choose from. These
templates enable organizations to maintain consistency in communication with candidates. They
also save valuable time for managers who would otherwise have to compose all the messages
themselves. Furthermore, the messages are personalized for each candidate and may be edited
by managers if they wish to add a personal touch.
All these features integrated into E-Recruitment software enhance efficiency of the recruiting
processes. The survey conducted at NRG Engineering Pte Ltd. revealed that Keyword Searching;
which looks through entire resumes and attachments, and Interview Scheduling were amongst
the most sought after features of E-Recruitment software. The following diagram shows this in
detail.
Figure 2: Useful Features of E-Recruitment Software
The Hiring managers also mentioned the following benefits offered by their E-recruitment
software:
Follow up reminders for any tasks, set by users
Shared calendars (group calendars) which can be synchronized with Outlook
Different levels of authorization for different users which increase the level of
confidentiality of candidates data
Single platform to view all information in addition to an historical activity log
Flexibility to customize all the information and how it is displayed on each window
Templates for emails, offer letters, welcome packages and other business documents
Log of all communication with candidates, so that records are maintained about the
subject of communication, when it occurred and with whom

Best Practices
Automating the Recruitment and Selection process by integrating E-Recruitment software with the
existing recruiting activities provides more competent, cost-effective procedures for HR hiring
managers and line managers. Implementing the following Best Practices with the support of E-
Recruitment software ensure that organizations are efficient in identifying and retaining talented
individuals.
The most important aspect of E-Recruitment software is the fact that almost all stages of the
Recruitment process can be customized to cater to the unique needs of the organization. Thus, each
step of the process becomes more efficient, accomplishing desired results within a shorter time.
Some good practices in Recruitment are:
• Conducting Human Resource Planning well ahead and performing thorough Job Analysis
before creating Job Descriptions, Job Specifications and Job Requisitions
• Providing Realistic Job Previews to prospective candidates during the interviews
• Rapid responses and follow-up with candidates
• Providing extensive information about the company on the corporate websites, including
success stories and profiles of top performers
• On-going recruiting: Recruiting does not start when a vacancy arises, nor does it stop when
vacancies are filled. It is an ongoing process, and line managers are always on the lookout for
suitable candidates, nurturing strong relationships with them even when there are no jobs
available. This acts as a form of advertisement and employment branding, as well as helps
create a talent pool that organizations can rely on to find suitable candidates as soon as a
vacancy does arise.
• Selection criteria based on competence (can they do the job), motivation (willingness to do
the job) and organizational fit (can the organization offer them what they need)
Job Requisitions
Applicant Tracking Systems generally include the capability to create and post Job Requisitions for
any vacancy. This allows line managers to list candidates for each type of Job and shortlist
candidates using Keyword Search techniques.
In-built templates make the job of creating new requisitions easier as similar job requisitions can be
used several times for the vacancies that commonly arise. A database of in-built templates for Job
Descriptions is yet another important feature such a system may provide. The flexibility to adapt
these templates to the needs of the organization makes it easier to manage and use accordingly.
Advanced E-Recruitment software ensures that it is easy to create Job Requisitions, list candidates
according to the requisitions and at the same time view the status of applicants in the recruitment
process.
8
Career Websites
Corporate career websites serve to advertise the company as an “employer of choice” to prospective
employees as well as offer a platform to applicants to send online applications and resumes. So it is
vital for organizations to design a website that provides easy access to all relevant information with
clear instructions on how to apply online.
E-Recruitment software makes possible the posting of multiple Job Vacancies on the career
websites, so that prospective applicants can also self-select the positions they are suitable for and
apply accordingly. Yet another important aspect of the career website is that the applicants
themselves should be provided the flexibility to create and edit their profile as well as view their
status in the recruitment process through this website. The more sophisticated E-Recruitment
software allow candidates to upload their resumes in any format (in PDF format, MS Word
document etc.) and still allow line managers to search through every word in the resume using
Keyword Search techniques. On the other hand, candidates can also search through the different
vacancies posted using job search agents and apply to multiple jobs in a single session. Again, the
line managers can review all this information in detail, and track the status of the applicants for each
job requisition.
Candidate Sourcing
The most common sourcing tools today are online Job Boards and Corporate Career websites. Other
sources for candidates include organizations’ Internal Databases, employee referrals, unsolicited
applications and sometimes print media.
Generally, E-recruitment software automatically identifies which source of candidates provides the
best quality of hire for which job category (by comparison, a paper based process will not allow this
easily). Managers at NRG Engineering Pte Ltd. use this function of the software to benchmark the
recruitment processes of each business unit. Thanks to this feature, it is now well acknowledged that
using E-Recruitment software helps increase the quality of hire, while the time to hire and cost of
hire usually decrease.
At NRG Engineering Pte Ltd., an internal database of qualified candidates was built over the years,
based on all applicants that have ever applied to the company and the resumes acquired by the
company through other sources such as online job sites. The fact that the internal database provides
a rich source of candidates also indicates the efficiency of the searching tool currently used. The
large volume of applications need to be systematically logged, and detailed information is available
at all times for proper follow-up so that when the need for a new candidate arises, the existing
database can be searched through quickly before advertising externally.

Online Resumes & Applications
Most organizations use their career website to advertise their brand image and portray themselves
as “employers of choice”. So candidates are always encouraged to submit online applications on the
company’s career sites by creating a profile and using online forms. Usually resumes received in this
way are tracked by the E-Recruitment software and automatically added to the company’s Internal
Database.
Sometimes, though, resumes are received through direct email sent to the HR department or the
managers themselves. This is not particularly encouraged as resumes and applications received in
this way are difficult to sort through. Sophisticated E-Recruitment software provides a simple way to
handle these piles of disorganized resumes. Managers can forward the emails they receive to a
specified email address, from which the E-Recruitment software can automatically add resumes to
the general list of candidates in the Internal Database.
Usability of the career websites through which resumes and applications are submitted is another
important feature that needs to be taken into account to ensure the effectiveness of the
recruitment process. This implies that users of corporate career sites should be able to navigate
around the site and find relevant information quickly and easily. Directions on how to create or edit
profiles, submit applications and search through Job listings should be presented logically in clear
language.
In addition, application forms available online should be presented in a consistent format, thus
making it easier to collect information from applicants in a systematic way. It is important to design
the application form so that it is logical and comprehensible. The more competent E-Recruitment
software systems provide flexibility to users to upload their resumes in any format, but also preview
the resume exactly as it was written in the first place.
Advanced E-Recruitment software enables customization of the company’s career website (or
websites), which is often the first contact point between potential candidates and the company. So
while designing the career page, it is important to acknowledge the importance of its usability for
applicants. Applicants should be able to apply online easily and track their progress through the
application process while line managers should also be able to keep track of all candidates easily
through a user-friendly interface.
The features and functionalities of career websites and online applications have the potential to
reduce administrative costs by a substantial amount by streamlining applications and by short listing
candidates through pre-screening tools and online questionnaires.
10
Online Screening
With the growth of E-recruitment software and online jobseekers, hundreds of applications may be
received for each job position advertised. Hiring managers and line managers have to sort through
all these applications to filter out those who may be suitable for the position. Much time and money
is saved through online pre-screening, which provide online questionnaires and tests to filter out the
qualified candidates from those who are unsuitable for the positions currently available.
As such, online recruitment applications invariably include “Killer questions” for pre-screening and
filtering out unsuitable applicants. These are important to save time by ensuring that candidates
who do not possess relevant skills required for a particular job requisition are not short listed for
assessment or interviews.
Job specific pre-screening tools and self-selection questionnaires can be designed for each job
position. This prompts applicants to answer questions specific to the position, and not just complete
a generic outline of the application form which will pose further sorting problems later on.
Integrating psychometric tests and online screening tools is a simple and easy process using E-
Recruitment software. Although psychometric testing online is still relatively a new method it is an
emerging future trend to predict Job Performance and determine whether the candidate can fit in
with the organizational culture.
It is possible that the most advanced E-Recruitment software such as Taleo-Vurv, aQayo and Kenexa
may propose this functionality as part of their Standard Edition packages in future. Some
Psychometric tests used quite regularly with proven consistent results are the "Five Factor Model"
(FFM) also known as the Big Five personality traits, Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), Harrison
Innerview, etc.
Since these pre-screening questions, psychometric tests or other forms of assessment vary from
company to company, E-Recruitment software allows users to customize their websites to allow
such filtering of candidates. Nevertheless, Psychometric tests are not the sole indicator of successful
performance, and should be used in combination with other Selection tools.
Assessment and Selection
E-Recruitment software generally provides users with the flexibility of viewing all candidates listed
together, while the more competent systems provide hiring managers and line managers the ability
to view detailed lists of candidates along with their pictures, jobs they have applied for and other
pertinent information in one screen. These provide more detailed information at the click of a
button, and users are able to view the status of the applications, comments and feedbacks given by
other managers concerning interviews and tests. Since there is so much information to look into, it is
important that it is all presented in a format that is easy to navigate around with all the information
available at a single glance, but details readily accessible too.
There is a wide range of methods that can be used to evaluate an applicant, which vary in terms of
reliability and the ability to predict Job Performance. So it is important to use selection tools that
11
provide consistent results, and have proved their validity in the past. Some Selection tools that are
commonly used include Technical Tests, Interviews or Assessment Centres where candidates are
asked to complete certain tasks such as group discussions, role-play, problem-solving etc.
The selection tools used should be able to distinguish between candidates and reflect their abilities
to perform their job functions effectively.
Interview Management
Interviews may be conducted individually, one-on-one or by a panel, either on the phone or in-
person. Using pre-selected open-ended questions are helpful to understand the candidate
competencies and whether they fit into the position requirements. It is usually even more helpful to
follow a checklist of topics to cover during an interview, and mark topics already covered.
E-recruitment software systems are configured to enable managers to schedule interviews as well as
record their comments and feedback about the applicants. Some additional features such software
systems provide include reminders for upcoming interviews, collaboration tools with authorized
managers so that all have access to the feedback and comments provided by others and an online
checklist of the interview subjects to cover with applicants.
Offer Management
Once the hiring decision is made, an offer letter is sent to the candidate, and negotiations are
conducted on this basis. In this respect, E-Recruitment software accelerate the offer process by
providing managers a list of templates for several types of offer letters, contracts and other legal
documents. Managers can choose the appropriate templates, depending on the position and
geographical location and personalize the messages conveyed.
Competent E-Recruitment software provides a checklist of “Things to do” when making a Job offer.
This ensures that all procedures related to making an offer have been completed. Senior managers
can review and approve offer letters and all related documents thanks to performing work flow
engines integrated in the application. This process is faster and less prone to errors because of the
availability of in-built templates. The managers need only to review relevant parts of the document.
So only a few sections need to be edited or revised in case of negotiations. The software application
enables managers to track the status of their offers as well: whether the offer letter has been sent,
offer accepted or rejected.
Top-notch E-Recruitment software provides an added feature called “e-signing” for signing contracts
through the Internet. This eliminates the need to send documents by post just to obtain written
signatures from candidates. E-signatures obtained in this way are legal, reduces the time involved in
signing of the contract and allows for faster on-boarding of the new employees.
12
On-Boarding & Orientation
When negotiations are completed and the Job offer is accepted, the next step is on-boarding of the
new hire. Some companies use this process to strengthen their brand image by conveying an
excellent first impression to their new talents. Automating the on-boarding process through E-
Recruitment software provides a more systematic and efficient way to perform this task.
As a first step, welcome packages in electronic format are sent to the new hires immediately,
informing them about the company administrative details and other pertinent information. The new
employees are also asked to log into their profile and complete required forms online. Meanwhile,
the E-Recruitment software notifies relevant managers about the new addition to the company.
Additionally, orientation programs are effective in introducing new employees to the organization
environment and work culture and to ensure effective integration. The length and nature of the
orientation depends on the nature of the job itself and the organization. If orientation programs are
conducted, orientation schedules are included as part of the welcome package. Calendars of
managers who will be conducting the orientation program are updated simultaneously. This ensures
smooth orientation to the company for the new employee as well as allows managers to efficiently
manage the on-boarding process. Costs of turnover are reduced, and the new hire is given the
opportunity and support to reach productivity within a shorter time.
Web-based on-boarding systems, integrated or not in E-Recruitment software, enable organizations
to standardize, coordinate and keep track of every step in the process, as well as make the new hires
feel valued and supported. Efficient and successful on-boarding programs offer a better chance to
transform the new hires into committed employees.
13
Measuring Success
To ensure that the recruitment process is effective and efficient, and that there are no bottlenecks
holding back the process, it is important to choose and measure the Key Performance Indicators
(KPI) at each stage. Analyzing KPIs will lead to an overall improvement in recruiting and retaining
talent.
The followings are some of the Key Performance Indicators in measuring success and efficiency of
the Recruitment and Selection Process:
Quality of Hire
Cost per Hire
Time to Hire
New Hire Turnover
The metric generally used to measure performance of the talent acquisition process is "Quality of
Hire". Most line managers measure the quality of hire according to the new hire output and
performance or by the length of time a new hire stays with the company. As shown in the diagram
below, it is the length of time a new hire stays with the company that is perceived to be the best
measure for the quality of the hire, according to the survey conducted at NRG Engineering Pte Ltd.
Figure 3: Measuring Quality of Hire
However, in more mathematical terms, the quality of hire is measured using the formula:
While measuring the quality of hire is critical to analyze the Recruitment and Selection process, the
costs associated with each step in the process are also important. The costs per hire include both
direct costs associated with each hire, such as advertising costs for posting vacancies on Job sites,
conducting phone interviews or salaries of the recruiting executives and indirect costs like the time
spent by line managers for each hire in the Recruitment process. The recruitment process is never
14
exactly the same for any vacancy, and the time it takes to fill a vacancy can vary from a few days to a
few months, depending on the circumstances. Usually, the shorter time it takes to hire, the fewer
costs are associated with it, and thus lower the cost per hire.
However, it is important to keep in perspective that the cost per hire or the time to hire is not the
sole measure for recruiting success. Organizations should concentrate more on the quality of hire as
a measure of the recruitment process since this is the true measure of success. Trying to reduce
costs, and time to hire may lead to bad quality hires, and the resulting cost of bad hires is much
higher. Saving time and cost may imply that organizations are rushing through the hiring process,
instead of concentrating on the quality of the talent pool being created. Measuring the quality of
hire is the most accurate indication that high performers were identified throughout the recruitment
and selection process.
The Report Generation feature of advanced E-Recruitment software enables the measurement of
the KPIs of Recruitment more effectively. In addition to the regular reports required to analyze the
recruitment process, the feature enables managers to find answers to any ad-hoc queries that arise,
saving time and providing more valuable information whenever necessary.
Summary
Talent acquisition, in itself, involves the planning, sourcing, assessing, hiring and on-boarding of top
talent. Automating the Recruitment Processes helps implement Best Practices in most organizations
today. This leads to a better employment branding through career websites and also provides more
effective recruiting tools for selecting suitable candidates. The hiring manager’s time can be spent
more efficiently, aligning all stages of the Recruitment and Selection procedures to their overall
strategy.
The following practices are usually standard to attracting and retaining quality hires:
Aligning HR strategy to the organization objectives through strategic workforce planning
Improving candidates experience
Using appropriate tools and processes (through the e-recruitment software for instance)
Improving the company brand name to attract qualified candidates
Providing accurate advertisements, job/role descriptions and Realistic Job Previews (RJP)
E-recruitment software ensures efficient recruitment functions and helps busy line managers fill
their vacancies in the best manner. HR departments who are experienced in ATS usage usually see
the quality of hire improve consistently, as Recruitment Best Practices are diffused via the software
throughout the whole organization. Thanks to the increasing use of E-recruitment systems, the loss
of communication data between candidates and hiring managers is progressively becoming a thing
of the past.
The following checklist shows some of most important features to consider in selecting an ATS.
