Building and nurturing your talent pools
Skilled candidates are increasingly scarce. So, talent acquisition teams need to engage with passive candidates in order to build and maintain a diverse talent pool.
Sourcing candidates from outside the talent pool can make it challenging to pinpoint the right candidates to target.
Eploy helps businesses build and nurture talent pools of skilled candidates to ensure that open roles are quickly filled by high-quality talent.
How Eploy helps build and nurture your talent pools
Eploy provides a number of features to help you build strong and engaged talent pools.

Your candidates can then update their profile at any time - ensuring that you always have a record of their latest achievements, skills and experience. Why have separate talent pool and applicant tracking systems - Eploy gives you both solutions in one system.
