Sodexo, one of the UK’s leading providers of on-site service solutions has taken the leap into the new way of working and implemented TribePad transforming the way it recruits and utilising one of the most powerful next generation recruitment platforms.
Through the use of the latest in cutting edge technology Sodexo’s new Careers Centre will enable the company to recruit the best talent from within and externally. Internal and external jobseekers too will have an enhanced experience with the ability to manage their profile on the system and taking part in groups, forums and discussions in the community section of the system.
TribePad also allows Sodexo to leverage social media by supercharging the way their jobs are published to the web and social channels. It will enable Sodexo to build real talent communities by being able to engage with present and future jobseekers in a personalised way.
Each potential candidate can not only access the job application status for which they are applying, the system automatically flags to them other potential roles which may be of interest to them giving them a similar experience to online retailers . For each application the candidate is able to track where they are in the process and will alert them to any action required.
Melanie Hayes, Head of Talent at Sodexo (UK & Ireland) says: “The launch of the Sodexo Careers Centre is really putting us ahead of our competitors when seeking to recruit the best talent. The new centre takes our talent management to a new level, helping us to engage with candidates from the outset which helps us to reinforce Sodexo as the employer of choice for the majority and ensuring they are fully equipped with the right information to help them through the application process.”
“It is not just potential employees the system benefits, it will also revolutionise how anyone within Sodexo recruits too, simplifying the process with the latest technology which matches candidates registered on the system. In short the new Sodexo Careers Centre will enable us to build real talent communities which will support engagement, aid internal hiring and ultimately enable us to hire the best candidates.”
The new Careers Centre uses social media channels to push new vacancies out to a wide audience and with Tribepad hosting the system, jobs can be marked up and pushed out and then easily found through the various search engines.. The high visibility which Tribepad offers will drive traffic through to the new system allowing Sodexo to build up a bank of the best talent in the industry.
Lisa Scales from TribePad says “We are delighted to have been able to fulfil Sodexo’s needs as this is the final piece in Sodexo’s jigsaw to really join up their direct hiring strategy. They have also implemented TribePad’s ATS module which gives them a truly consolidated solution”
