[Editor’s Note: Over the next several weeks, the Future of Work Exchange will unveil its “21 for 2021” list of key solution providers that are shaping the Future of Work through innovative technology, progressive functionality, and overall impact on the evolving world of talent and work. We will be sharing those providers here on CPO Rising as well. Up today: Talmix.]
The Background:
The global talent acquisition and HR markets have collectively experienced a near-700% increase in the adoption of digital and on-demand staffing solutions over the past five years, a direct response to the evolution of talent engagement, shifts in how businesses view their contingent workforce, and the overall transformation of how work is addressed and done.
For today’s businesses that crave true workforce agility and aim to engage top-tier talent in an on-demand manner, talent marketplace and digital staffing solutions have emerged as go-to platforms. However, while these solutions offer deep networks of vetted talent, businesses also require functionality that can ensure alignment with key projects, roles, and positions while developing true collaboration between independent talent and enterprise hiring managers.
Enter Talmix.
Why They Were Selected:
Talmix offers one of the deepest channels of strategic talent across the globe and is primed for fast growth in the years ahead due to its robust candidate-matching functionality (fueled by true artificial intelligence), robust analytics and reporting, and commitment to direct sourcing. The solution’s “Talent Passport” offering is a unique module that automatically updates each candidate’s core skillsets (including soft skills) based on the evolution of career paths, projects completed, and answers to dynamic screening questions.
The Talmix solution is one of few platforms that provides a deep service-layer offering on top of a robust technology system and global marketplace of top-tier, in-demand skillsets and expertise.
In Their Own Words:
It’s five years since Talmix launched and our purpose is unchanged – we want to unlock the power of the extended workforce. We have built a talent marketplace and global talent network focused on Business Talent. Companies use Talmix to create an extended workforce which can address skills and operational requirements, and get critical work done.
Our platform automates the heavy lifting for both the client and the talent, so they benefit from a first-class experience in terms of using the platform, and because this is high-end business talent and high-value projects, we don’t forget the service layer to enhance that experience. Being global provides more flexibility to our clients and talent – the opportunity to have the best talent working on projects, regardless of location.
As more companies turn to the extended workforce, we want to make sure that our platform continues to develop and support those companies with the fastest and most precise way to reach that workforce. For example, this week we’re launching tagging capabilities, meaning more data points on the Talent Passport for talent, and easier ways of defining projects for client.
And our name tells it all – we believe that with the right mix of talent, anything is possible.
The Outlook:
The Talmix solution enables a deeper understanding of worker demographics, micro-experiences, soft skills, feedback, work style preferences, and other key worker attributes, which are dynamically updated as candidates complete new jobs and projects. This innovative approach towards talent marketplace functionality, especially in a business world that is evolving seemingly overnight, can be incredibly crucial for those HR and talent acquisition executives that require a specific level of expertise for mission-critical projects and initiatives.
And, with its direct sourcing and talent pool functionality, Talmix will be positioned to help global businesses engage, build, and develop a truly agile workforce in the face of massive transformation within the greater world of work.
