Salary.com Earns Third Top Product Award Since 2001; TalentManager Recognized for Best-in-Class Features Including Resource Planning and Comprehensive Employee Profiles
HRchitect featured Salary.com in our May 2008 release of The Suite Life of Integrated Talent Management.
Salary.com, Inc., a leading provider of on-demand compensation and talent management solutions, this week announced that TalentManager Succession Planning, the newest on-demand application in its Talent Management Suite, has been named 2008 Product of the Year at the 11th Annual HR Technology Conference & Exposition held in Chicago last week. For 20 years, one of the conference highlights has been the awards to the top human resource and training products as recognized by Human Resource Executive magazine, founder and sponsor of the conference. The awards recognize innovation and excellence and are among the most coveted in the human resource vendor community.
With succession planning, human resource executives have the power to search for and select internal job candidates based on a combination of requirements including competencies, performance, readiness, potential and promotability for each position being planned. Providing as much visibility into candidate performance as needed, the system builds comprehensive employee profiles with key data for each candidate. HR executives can configure and customize profile views to zoom in on the information most relevant to a succession slate and can compare and rank candidates side-by-side. They also can collaborate online with other planners using message boards and polling tools to discuss and evaluate best fit and readiness – features that greatly increase the efficiency of the succession planning process. These virtual collaboration features make succession planning so easy and efficient for managers that they want to participate in it.
