Connecting Your Talent Management Solution

Speed of execution is a strategic advantage. Talent is the key element in your ability to move quickly and innovate. Your talent management solutions must be agile to support acquiring, deploying, and retaining the right talent for your business goals. Automation and cost reduction are important, but the new key to competitive advantage is IT agility.

One of the biggest challenges to IT agility is integration. Code based integrations can be complex and costly to upgrade. Analysts estimate integration changes and support as 35-45% of the total cost of ownership.

Built on a services oriented architecture (SOA) called the Taleo Integration Framework, Taleo Connect™ and Taleo Passport™ provide standard, repeatable integration, self-service tools, and flexible service options for a new level of IT agility.
