As a solution endorsed in SAP Store, LiveHire Total Talent Acquisition Platform for SAP SuccessFactors now expands its global reach for customers looking for SAP-validated solutions and takes part in SAP’s sustainability initiative of planting a tree for every solution sold. LiveHire has earlier partnered with SAP SuccessFactors leading implementor Rizing LCC to expand LiveHire’s customer base to the US and the Asia Pacific region.
Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) has recently shared the quits data reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics comparing the yearly statistics of workers from the U.S. quitting their job since 2000. The interactive chart shows the phenomenon of The Great Resignation, which revealed historic quit levels in the last 10 months of 2021 recording an average of more than 3.98 million workers per month. Some factors that affected the employees’ decision to leave their jobs include the ongoing pandemic and vaccine mandates.
Based on recent data from the U.S. Department of Labor, the quitting trend continues in 2022 with about 4.3 million people quitting their jobs in January, which indicates that the unprecedented challenges for HR in terms of talent retention and acquisition also drag on.
Against the COVID-19 environment, the inclusion of Melbourne-headquartered Livehire’s Total Talent Acquisition Platform for SAP SuccessFactors in SAP Store comes at an opportune time with the escalating need for a recruitment and engagement platform to support many companies’ HR. LiveHire is a global software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform that connects organisations and job seekers worldwide. The company has three offices in Australia including in Sydney and Perth and one in Miami, Florida.
Dave Ghosh, Senior Vice President for Global Alliances and Channel Sales at LiveHire, stressed that talent shortages have become a business imperative on top of being a major HR concern. He added:
“With the ‘Great Resignation’ now in effect globally, businesses are resorting to hiring freelancers and gig workers to backfill permanent positions. LiveHire’s platform helps bring the power of candidate engagement and experience across the entire talent pool, elevating a company’s brand experience for permanent and contingent hiring for all companies that use the SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting solution.”
