Whitaker-Taylor Insights

The ability to access information on the fly and the means by which to do so plays a significant role in our society. So, it makes sense that a 2018 survey by the Pew Research Center found that 95% of adults in the US own a mobile device. Mobile devices give us access to an unlimited amount of data, right from the convenience of our fingertips. It’s also an easy way for us to stay connected to others around the globe.

By now, we have all been inundated with bits of information related to the upcoming changes to the SAP SuccessFactors Onboarding module.  We know it’s coming, yet there are still a lot of unanswered questions about the interface and new functionalities.

Some changes are even being gradually introduced into the current application of Onboarding in beta.

We are no longer in the age of manual forms, long and tedious workflows, or even drawn-out, inefficient meetings. Instead, we are in the dawn of a new era, where technology is more advanced than ever, bridging the gap between Human Resource Talent Solutions and efficient, user friendly applications and software.

What makes a great shopping experience on Amazon? When we shop, we get smart recommendations based on our previous purchases or our search history. We also receive product suggestions from similar users who purchased items like our recent purchases. And all this is empowered by machine learning in the back end.

Have you ever wondered where the configuration takes place on a performance template, how to maximize the effectiveness of a rating scale, or even how to maximize the functionality of the feedback features? For some, this is a time to finalize merit reviews; for others, it’s a time to begin the performance process. As we bring in Q1 2019, we want to be mindful and aware of the full scope of the Performance Management Module, and what it can do for us. So, what can it do for us and what do we need to be mindful of?

Recruiting Marketing is a module I have grown to cherish and admire. It is the first project I ever worked on with Whitaker Taylor, and it has linked me back to my web development days. As we move forward into the new year, we look back and see the enhancements and updates in Recruiting Marketing and Recruiting Management SAP SuccessFactors has submitted as part of their Q4 2018 product release.

What is SAP JAM Collaboration? Simply put, this is a social networking solution designed for many purposes including creating blogs, sharing images and documentation, assigning learning tasks, and even scheduling meetings and other events. Given this information, we may ask, “Why is SAP JAM right for us?”

Are you familiar with all that SuccessFactors has to offer in the Recruiting bundle? Did you know that in recent years SuccessFactors has come out with a new module called Recruiting Posting to help ease the job posting process when using multiple job boards? Recruiting is a billion-dollar business with the bulk of that money being spent outside the recruiting technology – on talent sourcing, agencies, etc.

As we inch closer to 2019, we are pleased to announce there will be no shortage of useful and beneficial updates and releases to the SAP SuccessFactors Suite.
