PivotCX Continues to Shake Up How Recruiting Gets Done by Adding Real-Time Video to it’s Talent Acquisition Communications Hub

Video is the latest communication channel to be added as part of PivotCX’s mission to empower every recruiting team on the planet to make better hires faster. 

INDIANAPOLIS (September 13, 2022) –  PivotCX, an HR technology company that is transforming the recruiting process with its all-in-on talent acquisition communications hub, today announced the release of its beta version of its Real-Time Video communications.  As with all past communication channels incorporated into the hub, the addition of video will also provide the same level of interoperability across all existing channels already in place.  

PivotCX is reinventing how recruiting gets done by creating an “all-in-one” communication hub that enables recruiting teams to communicate the right information with the right candidates over the right communication channel at the right time.  The product can be deployed in a number of different ways as it is able to be used as a stand-alone solution, or can be integrated into any system or tool that recruiting teams already have in place.  

Being able to engage with and to develop meaningful relationships with all candidates, recruiters and hiring managers is what is at the heart of Talent Acquisition.  Everything else are the administrative process steps required to get recruiting done. PivotCX is a comprehensive toolkit of modern-day communication tools, combined with interactive use cases that are purpose-built for Talent Acquisition.  The PivotCX communications hub is able to address both the administration steps of the process as well as providing recruiting teams with the ability to directly engage with candidates and hiring managers at the speed and scale required to be successful in today’s recruiting environment.

“We see the introduction of video as the latest in a long string of communication tools on our roadmap that will enable recruiting teams to turn their Talent Acquisition function into a company’s competitive advantage,” said Howard Bates, CEO and Co-founder. “We understand that successful recruiting outcomes are dependent on being able to communicate effectively and to capture the information needed in a timely manner.  “The introduction of video furthers our mission of being able to empower recruiting teams and hiring managers to increase the velocity and momentum of their processes, along with dramatically enhancing a candidate’s experience” Bates said.

“Everyday we think deeply about how to make the recruiting experience more engaging, productive, and enjoyable by developing the most robust communication tools that remove the friction and latency in the communication and data flows in the current process” says Mike Seidle, CTO and Co-founder.  “Today, companies are operating their Talent Acquisition processes using legacy tools and communication channels that do not scale or enable them to keep pace with the dynamic nature of the market and candidate expectations for timely feedback.  Video is another way that we’ll enable teams to function with the level of immediacy and scale to make recruiting work” Seidle said.  

The addition of real-time video in conjunction with the current functionality of SMS, and Voice,  exponentially increases the immediacy of being able to communicate with and collect information from candidates and hiring managers.  Further, the incorporation of video enables recruiting teams to nurture critical talent throughout the entire hiring process.  Video is a vital tool to enable recruiting teams to operate with speed while also being able to build relationships and to provide an excellent candidate experience.

PivotCX’s Real-Time video communication is currently available in beta.  It is expected to be generally available by the end of Q4, 2022. Those interested in seeing the product can stop by Booth 514B for a demonstration during the HR Technology Conference in Las Vegas from September 13-15th or can request a demo directly here.

Merge Announces New Customer, PivotCX, Powering 38 ATS Integrations

Merge Announces New Customer, PivotCX, Powering 38 ATS Integrations

by | Sep 12, 2022 | Blog, Press

Merge, the Unified API for B2B integrations, today announced that its ATS Unified API is powering integrations for PivotCX, a communications hub for talent acquisition. PivotCX now supports integrations with 38 popular Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS), including Workday and Taleo, using Merge’s ATS Unified API. PivotCX orchestrates conversations across communication channels such as text, voice, video, and email. The ATS integrations provided through the Merge Unified API enable PivotCX to dramatically increase recruiter productivity while also providing a streamlined candidate experience.

“We’re thrilled to see Unified APIs unlocking new integrations and customer experiences. PivotCX is making it easier for recruiters and candidates to coordinate, and hire people faster, using integrations with ATS tools,” said Shensi Ding, CEO and Co-Founder of Merge. “PivotCX’s support for 38 integrations at once is a testament to how Unified APIs make it easier than ever to offer customers all of the integrations they want.”

PivotCX selected Merge based on the breadth and depth of the platform’s ATS integration support. Mike Seidle, CTO and Co-Founder of PivotCX, observes that Merge “takes a very systematic approach to integrations with a Unified API. Merge creates a universal model for ATS data that greatly simplifies the work for my team.”

PivotCX has already seen market traction and new clients from the expanded ATS integration support. Mike Seidle observes that the “ability to load candidate data directly from ATS tools allows employers to start recruiting conversations immediately. ATS integrations just landed us a contract with the largest employer in our home state of Indiana.” PivotCX’s EVP Corp Dev & Strategy, David Bernstein, notes that expanding integration support with “a Unified API frees up our development team to focus on bringing on new customers, rather than building and maintaining integrations. Merge is a fundamental piece of our growth strategy.”

PivotCX Taps HR Tech Industry Expert David Bernstein to Join its Leadership Team

PivotCX Taps HR Tech Industry Expert David Bernstein to Join its Leadership Team

by | Aug 11, 2022 | Blog, Press

 

Bernstein brings nearly 30 years of experience plus deep industry and enterprise-level relationships 

INDIANAPOLIS (August 10, 2022) – – PivotCX, an HR technology company that is transforming the recruiting process with its all-in-on talent acquisition communications hub, today announced that it has hired HR technology industry expert David Bernstein as executive vice president of corporate development and strategy. In this role, Bernstein will be responsible for business development, strategic alliances, marketing, and amplifying the brand across multiple stakeholder communities.

Bernstein, who has nearly three decades of experience in human resources, first as a recruiter for PeopleSoft and later as an early adopter, implementer, and leader in the HR technology space. Among his career highlights are implementing global technology platforms for Fortune 500 companies such as Hitachi and serving as a director of product strategy for an early pioneer of total HR software solutions. Bernstein has worked with six startups in the HR technology space, most recently as the vice president of partnerships and industry relations for JobSync. Bernstein is a frequent contributor to Forbes and serves on the Forbes HR Council. He is also an adjunct professor, teaching HR Analytics, at Palo Alto University, and is a noted speaker at HR technology events.

Bernstein’s hiring could not have been better timed, says PivotCX CEO and Co-founder Howard Bates. “The last two years have been extremely challenging for companies to rehire employees post-pandemic, adjust to fast-changing workforce dynamics and an overall shortage of qualified candidates. This has motivated very large companies to reevaluate traditional recruiting practices and embrace PivotCX platform’s unique ability to immediately engage candidates, accelerate the hiring process enabled by live text, and provide an overall excellent experience.

“We are extremely fortunate to have David onboard to drive business development and strategic partnerships for PivotCX as we concentrate on scaling the company to the next level,” Bates said.

PivotCX’s client base has grown exponentially in 2022, which Mike Seidle, PivotCX co-founder and CTO, says he is looking forward to leveraging Bernstein’s role as chief brand evangelist. “We will soon be announcing major corporate clients that are adopting the PivotCX platform because they need quality people now. We’re confident that with David’s focus on delivering the PivotCX message to more companies, more analysts, more journalists and influencers, we can radically redefine the effectiveness of recruiters and the experience of job candidates for companies that want to be first in line to choose the best candidates.”

Bernstein says his decision to be a change-maker for PivotCX was driven by the untenable and unacceptable nature of traditional recruiting where businesses and candidates live in their respective vacuums. “Talent is what drives business outcomes. If you can’t recruit and nurture great talent through the hiring process, companies are dead in the water. I welcome the opportunity with PivotCX to transform the experience for recruiters and candidates so that connections are immediate and positive energy is generated on both sides whether the candidate is hired or not. We’ve got to get back to being responsive to all candidates and the critical human touch in recruiting. I see PivotCX as the enabler.”
