Oracle-Acquired Taleo Customers Get Fast Track to Social Talent from Jobscience

Jobscience recently announced the Jobscience Social Recruiting FastPass for Taleo Business Edition customers that are impacted by Oracle (News - Alert). Taleo customers will now be able to take advantage of the Jobscience program to find social talent. Jobscience is one of the leading providers of Talent Relationship Management on the salesforce.com Force.com platform.

In a release, Ted Elliot, CEO of Jobscience said “It's nice to see Oracle has conceded that Cloud Computing is the new way to operate, but Taleo customers have to be concerned about future product direction and support from a server company that builds massive databases, that doesn't have social DNA. Recruitment has transformed beyond the Cloud and now must embrace Social relationships where HR applications are not in proprietary Cloud silos, but part of a Social organization supported by a social ecosystem.”

He continued, “Jobscience lets companies build relationships with talent by leveraging Social verse traditional application mills pumping out transactions that don't lead to the right hires. Jobscience allows Taleo customers a way to transform the way they interact with talent and avoid becoming another Oracle transaction.”

Currently available to all Taleo Business Edition customers affected by the recent Oracle acquisition, the Jobscience Social Recruiting FastPass program comes with a number of benefits such as a free basic account set up; free Taleo Migration Package that will be powered by Jitterbit until July 31, 2012; live and recorded web-based training sessions customized for Taleo migration customers.
