Features
The innovative platform allows companies to recruit passive and active candidates through a variety of ways, such as referrals, job boards, social media sites, email campaigns and text communications. Customers can build customized career pages and job postings that reflect their company culture, transforming interested hourly candidates into employees who believe in the company mission. The integration of a conversational AI chatbot offers structured conversations that automatically complete applications, assess candidates’ qualifications, and schedule interviews within minutes.
TalentReef’s mobile-friendly onboarding process allows hiring managers and HR to digitally assign every form a new hire needs with the click of a button. New hires complete documents and hiring managers can track their progress and send reminders if needed. Companies can easily customize their own onboarding forms. Third-party integrations with partners result in a seamless data transfer for background checks, payroll, etc. — while ensuring employers stay in compliance.
