Recently had the opportunity to talk to one of the Successfactors’ product Engineering teams on product philosophy and I was gladdened by some of the things Successfactors is working on.
We all are aware that Successfactors provides one of the best User Experiences as an Enterprise Cloud HCM system. But what is interesting is the direction Successfactors is working towards which is actually enabling organizations to have necessary tools in their philosophy to Attract, Engage & Retain.
On-Boarding is no more about checklists and routing of forms to be filled. Successfactors is trying to make On-Boarding as an experience for HR, New Employees, Managers. Now organizations can have a bonding exercise via personalized Welcome Video from Managers to the New Recruits.
What’s more, candidates can have the list of people they need to meet on First Day and maps on how to reach them, all delivered to their devices.
Some of us may argue that compared to other business processes in organizations, these are "NICE TO HAVEs" when it comes to HR. However, in the context of War for Talent, these are the use cases that provide the means when HR talks about Attract, Engage and Retain.
The way in which scenarios and use cases are being rolled out in the world of Human Resources augurs well for the road map to move beyond “Consumer Grade” to “Consumerization of HR-IT”.
