HireVue Plugs into Taleo Talent Grid

Leading Video-Interviewing provider HireVue today announced that it will make its video-interviewing platform available to Taleo customers through the Taleo Solution Exchange, the world’s first talent management solution marketplace. The Solution Exchange is one of three exchanges in Taleo’s Talent Grid, the first cloud community for talent management which was launched today.

HireVue recently announced an integration partnership with Taleo (NASDAQ:TLEO), the leading provider of on-demand talent management solutions, that allows Taleo customers to include live and virtual HireVue video interviews in their hiring workflow as managed through Taleo Enterprise. Today’s news makes it even easier for customers to compare and evaluate HireVue solutions, directly from Taleo’s Solution Exchange marketplace.

"HireVue is a nimble, innovative company. We're helping our customers re-think the entire interviewing cycle, with an emphasis on quality of results and return on investment,” said Mark Newman, HireVue’s co-founder and CEO. "Taleo's vision and execution with the Solution Exchange is compelling. We look forward to leveraging to build our brand within the Taleo customer base, and to educate the entire human capital space on the relatively new concept of video interviewing. It's a great environment for collaboration and the reason we're investing with Taleo first."

"In response to today’s increasingly virtual workforce, companies are looking for new ways to connect with top talent around the world,” said Al Campa, Chief Marketing Officer at Taleo. "Access to solutions such as HireVue’s, through the Solution Exchange, allows our customers to simultaneously extend their employment branding, while streamlining processes, saving money and increasing efficiencies.”

The HireVue video interviewing solution allows companies to conduct live and virtual interviews safely and securely over the Internet. Interviews are stored so they are available to view and evaluate through HireVue's secure site. As part of the Solution Exchange, users can preview and demonstrate HireVue’s pre-integrated video-interviewing solution, read reviews and share their findings with others. Implementation through Solution Exchange takes days rather than months.

HireVue will be demonstrating its video interviewing platform and the integration with Taleo Enterprise at TaleoWORLD, the company’s premier event for customers and partners September 14-17 at Caesar’s Palace in Las Vegas. To schedule a meeting or private demonstration at Taleo World, please contact Chris Higbee at 801.415.9485 or e-mail chigbee@hirevue.com.
