nowHIRE Demonstrates Commitment to Customer’s Privacy with Safe Harbor Certification…from nowHIRE

May 15, 2009

 

HRchitect includes nowHIRE in our list of top Talent Acquisition Systems vendors that businesses should consider.

nowHIRE announced the company’s Safe Harbor certification by the United States Department of Commerce. The Safe Harbor certification is especially important for nowHIRE’s international clients, as it ensures that information transferred between the European Union states and the United States is protected.

The U.S Department of Commerce and the EU have agreed on a set of data protection principles and frequently asked questions to enable U.S. companies to satisfy the requirement under EU law that adequate protection be given to personal information transferred from the EU to the United States.

We are committed to our customer’s privacy and will take whatever precautions necessary to protect their data, said Joseph N. Impastato, II, nowHIRE’s president. Our Safe Harbor certification underscores our continued commitment and offers our customer peace of mind about their data safety when doing business with us.

The European Commission’s Directive on Data Protection went into effect in October of 1998. The Commission is the EUs executive branch and the Directive prohibits the transfer of personal data to non-EU states that do not meet the European adequacy standard for privacy protection. While the U.S and the EU share the goal of enhancing privacy protection for their citizens, the U.S. takes a different approach to privacy from that taken by the EU.

In order to bridge these different privacy approaches and provide a streamlined means for U.S. organizations to comply with the Directive, the U.S. Department of Commerce in consultation with the European Commission developed a “safe harbor” framework. The safe harbor, approved by the EU in 2000, is an important way for U.S. companies to avoid experiencing interruptions in their business dealings with the EU or facing prosecution by European authorities under European privacy laws. Certifying to the safe harbor, as nowHIRE has done, assures that EU organizations know that nowHIRE provides privacy protection.

iCIMS Announces Two-Time Win in HRchitect Beauty Contest…from iCIMS

January 30, 2009

 

SaaS Provider Chosen as Top Vendor for Talent Acquisition and Mid-Market Applicant Tracking Solutions

 

HRchitect featured iCIMS in our May 2008 release of The Suite Life of Integrated Talent Management and also includes them in our list of top Talent Acquisition Systems vendors that businesses should consider. iCIMS also participated in the HRchitect Beauty Pageant on Talent Acquisition Systems on November 14, 2008, and on mid-market Talent Acquisition Systems on January 16, 2009,where they were crowned the winner of both pageants.

 

iCIMS, a leading Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) provider of talent management solutions, this week announced that the company has been named the two-time winner of the HRchitect “Beauty Contest” for talent acquisition and mid-market applicant tracking solutions.

Since November 2008, HRchitect, the leader in HR systems strategic consulting, has been presenting a series of webinars entitled “Assessing the Talent Management and HR Systems Landscape, an HRchitect Beauty Pageant.” Each “Beauty Pageant” focuses on a different category of HR technology, such as talent acquisition systems and mid-market applicant tracking solutions, and features six top vendors. Contestants compete by showing off their company story, service differentiators, value proposition and, of course, technology.

“As the leading Talent Acquisition Systems consulting firm, we feel a communal responsibility to create an educated public regarding HR technology decisions,” said Rick Fletcher, President and Founder of HRchitect. “We also think this is a really great opportunity for anyone who is looking at purchasing a HR technology solution to be able to learn more about several of the top systems in each category.”

During the November 14th Talent Acquisition Systems pageant, iCIMS was named the winner against such competitors as Silkroad, ADP – VirtualEdge, Authoria and Mr. Ted – capturing nearly 60% of the votes. On January 16th iCIMS was once again named a winner, this time for Mid-Market Applicant Tracking Solutions and against such competitors as Click & Hire, nowHIRE, SonicRecruit, SmartSearch and SmartRecruiters. Both wins were attributed to the company’s unique “Back to the Basics” approach, which emphasizes the value of superior customer service and an easy-to-use, flexible technology platform.

The most recent pageant gave participants a rare look into the decision making process of today’s mid-market organizations. In the current economic climate, it is the platform that can offer the most value and greatest efficiencies that is clearly favored and most looked for during the evaluation process. And with these criteria, it was iCIMS’ Talent Platform that clearly stood out above the rest. Unlike point solutions or modules, the talent platform makes it possible for corporations to manage their entire talent lifecycle through a single web-based system, eliminating the need to purchase multiple, costly solutions. Furthermore, customers do not run into cost creep for maintenance, upgrades or service fees and are able to upgrade without additional costs should organizational needs change in the future.

“The fact that iCIMS was once again selected as a winner really reiterates what we’ve seen from more and more companies as they align with our vision of going back to the basics and utilizing one easy-to-use solution that is supported by the best customer service team in the industry,” said Adam Feigenbaum, iCIMS’ Director of Sales and presenter for both pageants. “Specifically within the mid-market, where the majority of our clients have traditionally fallen, the fundamentals of cost-effectiveness and increasing efficiency are of top priority – and the single-source Talent Platform delivers on these levels.”

iCIMS specializes in solutions to attract, retain, and manage top talent, giving users the ability to perform all HR tasks through a single application. Clients are able to configure the iCIMS Talent Platform around their unique HR goals; powering such initiatives as workforce planning, applicant tracking, on-boarding, performance management, employee surveys and more through one core platform. Supporting the talent management needs of over 600 clients worldwide, including FreshDirect, eHarmony, yellowbook and dunnhumby, iCIMS has maintained a 97 percent corporate renewal rate since 2003 and offers unlimited customer support and complimentary training services to all iCIMS clients. The success of iCIMS’ Training division has helped iCIMS achieve the highest user adoption ratings in the Industry.
