Washington County Uses Talent Management Platform to Enhance Recruiting and Performance Reviews

Washington County, Wisconsin relied on manual processes for recruiting, tracking, and hiring candidates. Their sourcing practices were limited to newspaper ads and other paper sources, limiting their access to qualified candidates. Its lengthy application process and slow administrative processes prevented the county for competing for candidates. Internally, performance reviews were backlogged and often late, and employee goals were not aligned with corporate objectives -- damaging employee morale.

Since implementing Taleo Business Edition, Washington County, Wisconsin has streamlined and automated its recruiting processes and reduced time to fill open positions. With its branded careers website and online recruiting processes, the county can act more quickly when it finds a qualified candidate. The performance management solution improved its performance review processes by using individual competencies and giving more feedback during performance reviews, helping to engage and motivate employees.
