Findlay, OH

The RightThing, Inc. the leader in customized recruitment leadership, technology and outsourcing has announced a strategic recruitment outsourcing alliance program with Taleo Corporation, the leading provider of on demand talent management solutions. The program is designed to enhance The RightThing’s ability to offer their clients complete end-to-end RPO services powered by Taleo’s global recruitment platform.

“RPO has become an option for organizations seeking to augment or fully outsource their internal recruitment functions. As the scope of these services continues to grow, leading RPO providers like The RightThing are witnessing a trend to deliver and manage third party technologies as a component of their overall solution offering,” said Neil Hudspeth executive vice president, Worldwide Sales and Alliances at Taleo. 

As the leader in recruitment process outsourcing, The RightThing has grown exponentially year after year with employees, clients, revenue and thought leadership. In early 2008, The RightThing acquired AIRS, the leading provider of recruitment training and technology software which currently powers Taleo TalentReach, a comprehensive suite of sourcing tools that allow recruiters to source for qualified talent.  Serving over 70% of the Fortune 500, The RightThing and AIRS technology enabled service offerings are unmatched in the RPO industry. 

A leader in on demand unified talent management solutions, Taleo empowers organizations of all sizes, around the world to assess, acquire, develop and align their workforce for improved business performance. More than 1,700 organizations use Taleo, including 35 of the Fortune 100, for talent acquisition and performance management, with over 1.2 million users hiring 3.6 million employees from 86 million candidates in more than 190 countries and territories.

“A strategic partnership of this kind will further evolve The RightThing’s growth by providing a global technology platform for us,” said Terry Terhark, President and CEO of The RightThing.” The synergy of this partnership will really add value to the end client.”

Elliot Clark, Chief Executive Officer of HRO Today Magazine adds, “The future of RPO is turn key solutions so the providers with the broadest solution sets and the ability to provide the greatest value to the client will be the clear winners.  RPO is a technology driven form of outsourcing.  These kind of alliances will meet with strong market demand and propel these companies forward as buyers recognize the opportunity to buy a completely evolved delivery platform rather than an ad hoc service center.”
