About this Constellation ShortList™

The war for talent is being waged harder than ever, with the U.S. economy growing at a faster rate than expected. Midwest towns offer relocation credits to attract workers. Sign-on bonuses are on the rise. This environment requires talent acquisition software for enterprises to be more strategic than ever. People leaders are under pressure to deliver the hires for growth as well as replacements for a retiring workforce.

For inclusion in the Constellation Shortlist, vendors need to be dedicated to the talent acquisition space. They are not talent management suite vendors but can offer one or two adjacent talent management modules. Automation in candidate screening, candidate pre-evaluation and assignment are required. Interview scheduling needs to have at least rudimentary support. Additionally, these providers offer AI/ML to screen, find and assign the best candidates.

  • A cloud-based solution
