SymphonyIRI Group drives transformation with Employer Connections

March 16, 2011 - PRLog -- Employer Connections, provider of trusted social networks for business, is
delighted to announce that its platform has been chosen by SymphonyIRI
to support their employee referral programme and generate more direct
hires.

SymphonyIRI Group is the leading global provider of enterprise market
information solutions and services, empowering clients to make faster
shopper-centric decisions. With a unique combination of over 30 years
experience in the FMCG industry, deep level market insight and advanced
analytics, SymphonyIRI supports profitable strategies and business
growth in a complex marketplace.

SymphonyIRI has achieved its leading position through exceptional
technology and talent and the implementation of the Employer
Connections platform will create a pipeline of top talent whilst delivering
significant cost savings.

A “trusted network” comprising employees and selected talent pool and
alumni members will be created within the same communications
platform. The sharing and referral capabilities of the solution will be used
to quickly build a pool of qualified and motivated candidates. The
networking and community functions will then support engagement and
selection of candidates.

Employer Connections CEO, Peter Ward, outlined the value of a trusted
network for employee referrals:

“Employer Connections is delighted to be working with SymphonyIRI.  We
believe that the trusted network will not only deliver highly-qualified and
engaged candidates but also significant cost savings in a very short period
of time”.
Ros Smith, European HR Director at SymphonyIRI, added:

“Expanding employee referrals is a key part of our talent pipeline  
strategy. The trusted network will allow us to create and engage with a
pool of qualified talent to support our growth.”
