Client Background

The client is a Princeton-based Fintech company providing a range of financial services such as corporate crowdlending, mobile point-of-sale (POS) payments, and individual marketplace lending.

The Challenge

Need for an Integrated Talent Management Solution

The client’s existing talent acquisition process involved heavy use of Excel spreadsheets and a tremendous amount of paperwork. The absence of an integrated platform for talent management had resulted in data silos, a result of which crucial information on candidates was often missed out.

All hiring-based communication was carried out using emails. The HR had to send multiple emails to confirm interviewer availability, schedule interviews through Teams, and seek candidate feedback. As the feedback forms were shared through emails, HR had to manually check these forms. Also, the feedback was usually late and not as detailed and specific as it should have been.

Silos formed across departments prevented timely sharing of information; the management and hiring managers had no visibility into which departments are hiring and how the hiring pipeline functioned.

Spreadsheet and paper-based work made hiring cumbersome and time-consuming

Siloed data led to missing out on vital candidate information

Delayed feedback due to use of emails for hiring-related communication
