Challenges
William Uranga, Director of Talent Acquisition for Spokeo, was using a well-known Applicant Tracking Software (ATS) vendor but had great difficulty getting reporting, customization, and, most importantly, full access to his company’s own recruiting data without incurring extra fees. Spokeo couldn’t pull out their data and do the detailed reporting and analysis they needed. Their vendor told them they had to pay extra fees and took time to give them data exports.
Spokeo felt their data belonged to them and that their vendor’s architecture did not acknowledge or support their data needs.
Overall, they didn’t feel like they were getting the value they deserved from their ATS. Uranga then started a comprehensive RFP process to find a better ATS. “We were looking very deeply at overall value…we wanted data that would help us adjust and course-correct,” says Uranga. They made a detailed matrix of all their needs, and involved their internal recruiters, data experts, and UI specialists. They wanted an ATS that was easy and intuitive, innovative, enabled customization, US-based, secure, and allowed unfettered access to their data. Also, they didn’t want an ATS that was tacked on to an HRIS system.
