Taleo’s datacenter infrastructure, software platform, talent management application suite, and unique scale provide the foundation and critical mass required to power the largest talent management ecosystem in the world – the Taleo Talent Grid™. A set of three online communities, the Talent Grid was designed using the latest Web 2.0 principles and social technology and provides an exclusive place for Taleo customers to interact and share best practices, discover integrated partner solutions, and connect with millions of candidates.
The first component of the Talent Grid is the Taleo Solution Exchange™ powered by Taleo’s open architecture and our Taleo Passport™ integration technology.
