So after the Taleo ATS acquisition
Oracle has now acquired SelectMinds, a cloud based social networking company used by recruiters.
“Recruiting candidates through employee referrals is widely acknowledged
as the most effective method to find talent through trusted contacts,”
Oracle executive vice president Thomas Kurian said in a release. “Making
recruiting efforts efficient and seamless by leveraging social
connections and through mobile applications helps companies find better
quality candidates and continue to build the pipeline for future
talent.”
Taleo has some social recruiting
feature with Linkedin and it would really get bolstered by
SelectMinds' acquisition which adds the ability for social job distribution, creating talent communities and Facebook pages.
