Synchrony launches InSync Recruitment

Synchrony Global, a leading provider of innovative cloud-based Human Capital Management (HCM) solutions in the Asia Pacific region, is constantly developing business tools and technology to help HR executives boost their business’ strategic performance. 

Synchrony Global is doing its own boost in the recruitment space by recently launching its own Recruitment Management platform called InSync – Recruitment, a cloud-based solution that can accelerates the recruitment process faster than any other solution.  InSync Recruitment is based on the industry leading SAP SuccessFactors HCM solution and provides an end-to-end recruiting experience that couples both recruiting marketing (for attracting and engaging top talent) and recruiting management (for selecting and hiring the best candidates) to drive better business results for Synchrony. 

“We all know that talent remains the most sought-after commodity in business enterprises.  It is the foremost product of the BPO, Service, and Manpower-related industries.  It is not so much as a lack of talent applying to fill those required positions but rather finding the best fit for the right role in a market that is quickly being saturated.  That is the reason why we prioritized the deployment of the Recruitment module to facilitate a faster hiring process of the best talent out there.”, says Synchrony Global CEO Darcy Mark Lalonde. 

Lalonde adds, “Resourcefulness and creativity are key in finding and securing talent - knowing where to go, what tools and technology to use, and who to contact will determine how organizations will flourish in the dynamic world of business.  Launching and using our own recruitment module internally demonstrates our trust in the solutions that we sell to our clients.” 

Synchrony Global’s team of Solutions Architects whose expertise focuses on understanding changes happening in the HCM space and then developing solutions to address the needs brought about by these changes identified the SAP SuccessFactors Recruitment solutions as key to enabling the rapid growth an organization such as Synchrony is going through.  

At the start of the millennia, rapid talent mobility emerged as one of the top most issues of recruiters.  And this is what Synchrony’s solutions architects focused on in developing the recruitment management module.  InSync Recruitment is based on Synchrony’s own product SyncExpress that is powered by the SuccessFactors platform.  It not only facilitates rapid deployment of the recruitment module by 30-50% thereby immediately giving recruiters an effective tool for managing their recruitment process but also addresses talent retention once applicants are hired – in an accelerated manner.  

“This unique combination creates a toolset that will enables our recruiting focus to be more strategic and aligned with your workforce planning, succession, onboarding and internal mobility.”, says Jonathan Plastina, Synchrony Global’s Project Manager for InSync. 

“We need to understand the behavior of employees that impact the high attrition rate in these flourishing industries.  We all know about employees being disengaged, low salaries, unhealthy working environment especially in changing work shifts. The multi-cultural and multi-generational workforce that has this unique breed called the millennials who are submerged into social media and online technology.  These challenges are not new to us, however, it remains to be a problem.  We are constantly finding solutions through studies and technology to address these recruitment issues and we are proud to have come up with one.”, lauds Plastina.  

The InSync Recruitment Management module can help address these challenges.  It also has a mobile app that allows hiring managers to screen applicants and manage the recruitment process anytime anywhere.
