GMR Group adopts recruitment software, Talentpool, to handle its senior level hiring and realize its rapid business expansion plans

Pune, January 30, 2009 - GMR chooses Talentpool Enterprise, the flagship product of Pune-based Nitman Software, to create its own database of potential senior level hires, automate its recruitment process and collaborate effectively with recruitment firms.

GMR Group is one of the fastest growing infrastructure organizations in the country with interests in Airports, Energy, Highways and Urban Infrastructure (including SEZ). GMR’s business expansion requires rapid and efficient recruitment at all levels, especially at the higher levels of hierarchy.

Recruitment at senior levels required scouting through several hundred resume to come across one suitable candidate. GMR also had a huge network of placement consultants and staffing agencies to cope up with the rapid hiring process. But collaborating and communicating with these sources was becoming an additional challenge.

"Sources that we have been depending on for getting talent have increased with time, as also the mechanics of selection process.", says Nitin Singh, the General Manager – Talent Management, "In order to track the process from end-to-end and standardize the process flow across the organization, we decided to automate recruitment."

GMR preferred Talentpool over others for its user friendly features and high level of configurability. Management in GMR expects Talentpool to help them:

• » Automate the Recruitment Process: Manage the entire recruitment cycle from requisitions to screening, selection, offer, acceptance and finally joining on a single platform.
• » Avoid Expensive Customizations: Talentpool is fully configurable. GMR can continue to use their time tested selection processes without having to spend extra on customizations.
• » Use across multiple locations: Since Talentpool is web based, users across GMR’s offices in various cities can access Talentpool without having to install software on their machines. GMR’s top management can track recruitment progress across the country at a single glance.
• » Extensive Reports: Talentpool generates and auto emails scheduled reports on a daily, weekly or monthly basis, thus saving the HR Team considerable amount of time and effort they currently spend compiling reports for the management.

Talentpool Enterprise has a host of other features which help to increase the productivity of recruiters. Features like auto generated to do lists, mass mails, email reminders, resume parser and schedulable reports let the users finish their mundane work sooner than before. As a result recruiters can concentrate much more on getting the right talent on board.
