Singapore
| Lumesse has made the latest version of its enterprise talent
acquisition (e-recruitment) solution, Lumesse TalentLink, available
to its rapidly growing SaaS (software as a service) customer base
through its worldwide datacentres.
Version 11.2 of Lumesse TalentLink delivers an enhanced API (TalentHub)
that allows customers & partners even greater flexibility
when integrating and extending Lumesse TalentLink to build career
websites, interact with search technology and connect via social
media. Based on customer demand, the Business Intelligence (BI)
apps originally released in version 11.1 have been extended to
deliver even more real-time insight to users.
Other new capabilities include support for the new EU Temporary
and Agency Workers Directive, compatibility with Open Office documents;
time-saving workflow enhancements such as a job advert wizard;
and additional capabilities to deliver a faster, more tailored
candidate experience. Lumesse TalentLink v11.2 is available immediately
to all customers.
Lumesse CEO, Matthew Parker said: “With Lumesse TalentLink
v11.2 we continue to bring innovations to our SaaS talent management
product that give our global customers more information, more
choice and more flexibility, as well as helping them meet critical
local legislative requirements such as candidate data retention
rules and the EU Agency Workers Directive.”
Lumesse TalentLink v11.2 includes numerous enhancements in the
area of web services. Many companies want to build extensive recruiting
functionality into their corporate websites, to use Internet search
technology and particularly social media to find and attract talented
candidates, and to deliver a fast, interactive candidate experience.
The ability of Lumesse TalentLink to make available its power
through web services APIs gives career site developers huge flexibility
in building unique, creative career websites.
Actionable information on recruiting campaigns and recruitment
metrics continues to be a growing requirement for many companies.
The enhanced BI apps capability in Lumesse TalentLink v11.2 brings
flexible, user-defined, multi-dimensional drill-down reporting
on key talent acquisition metrics to the workspaces of users and
managers. Reportable metrics include job listings, requisition
status, candidate applications, hires and time-to-fill. The configurability
of the BI apps means that individuals can create actionable intelligence
that works for them, enhancing efficiency and creating greater
insight into hiring decisions and progress.
The new capabilities provided in Lumesse TalentLink 11.2 supporting
the EU Temporary and Agency Workers Directive add to the unique
capability Lumesse TalentLink already offers in its Contingent
Workforce support. Both fully employed and contingent (contract)
workers can be managed with Lumesse TalentLink on a fully equal
basis, a key benefit for the growing number of employers and managed
service providers who employ both kinds of staff.
Among many other new features, Lumesse TalentLink V11.1 also introduces
support for the file formats used by OpenOffice, including documents,
spreadsheets and presentations, improving efficiency and compatibility
for users of this popular open source application suite. Lumesse
TalentLink v11.2 is available immediately to all customers.
