Oracle Taleo-Accelerate your interview process with Evaluation Management and Microsoft Office 365

Oracle Taleo is a complete tool for recruitment process which helps in hiring the best Talent for the organization. It is an automated process which is highly suitable for both small- and large-scale organizations. Taleo has different modules such as recruitment, onboarding, social sourcing etc.

It can be easily connected with the recruiting processes to back end systems and third party solutions.

One of the major pain areas for a recruiter is to get the availability of the panel member’s offline. They are not aware about the schedules of the panel members in the organization.

To provide a solution to this, Oracle has improvised Taleo by providing integration with s Microsoft Office 365 and Mobile Responsive Questionnaires.

The interview tab in candidate page can integrate with the Microsoft office365 and Azure. So while creating an interview it shows the free & busy schedule of the interviewers based on their outlook calendar. The participants can be added using the Microsoft office365 directory and users can search the name of the interviewers and add them as participants. Once the date & time of the interview is given, scheduler can check the availability of the participants.

This integration helps the recruiters to check the participant’s availability before scheduling the interview and reduces the process of rescheduling/canceling the interview.

Business Benefits:

  • The calendar owner’s unavailability can be checked through the calendar dashboard which highlights the participant’s busy and free schedule, which helps the users to schedule the interviews accordingly.
  • Interview reminders can be sent for calendar owners for the scheduled interviews
  • Reduces the manual work of getting the participants availability as they can view in the system itself.
  • Simplified approach to multiple hiring activities with simpler and easy interview process.
  • Advanced UI with a dashboard view of the participant’s availability.
  • Quick filters are available to search for the participants.
