Thanks to our friends at Avature for supporting the show

When it comes to evaluating recruiting technology, vendors will often dazzle potential customers with a long and detailed list of features, side-stepping the uncomfortable discussion of how much value, if any, each said feature actually adds to the business. 

Avature's latest e-book suggests HR leaders to focus on business drivers first, and then move on to analyze how the broad capabilities of the systems under consideration differ from each other. Only after this analysis is complete, does it make sense to compare the differentiating features each tech solution brings to the table.

Download Avature's e-book for a fresh approach to recruiting software evaluation, one where HR leaders don't get trapped in just features but can assess the business benefits of HR tech acquisition.
