Talent Seeker

At HIDDEN CONCEPTS INC., we believe that people are not your number one asset … good people are.

As part of the unique HiringSmart process that we train clients to implement, the TalentSeeker component is dedicated to helping managers find the right people for your organization, more efficiently and more effectively - which will save you time, energy and money!

The problem with the traditional hiring process, is that it has become a game. A game filled with highly polished resumes, and carefully rehearsed answers to interview questions, from any number of guides like Job Interviews for Dummies by Joyce Lain Kennedy, where she offers tips like "Being yourself can be poor advice."  In most cases, the person who gets hired for the job, is the person who knows how to play the game best, NOT the person who is the best fit for the job.

TalentSeeker™ will automate the application process, while combining the first two steps (collecting applications/resumes & the first interview). This alone, will save you enormous amounts of time, paper, and energy.  Along with our proven customized application form, it will save you thousands of dollars in bad hiring decisions.

Plus, TalentSeeker™ combines the power of your advertising dollar.  Instead of posting separate job ads for each location or each position that you are hiring for (across the country), you can now have one ad, and one centralized application portal, filter all applications, and provide readily accessible applicant information to all of your managers.

When you sign-up for TalentSeeker™ , you get:

A dedicated (hosted) web job portal for your company.
The web portal can be accessed by job applicants 24/7 and can be monitored, checked and changed by you or your staff anytime, anywhere. With more and more online job seekers, it pays to have an easy way for them to find you, and you to find them.

Worry-Free Hosting.
You have no additional technical headaches or new equipment requirements.

Unlimited Job Postings.
You can add as many different job postings as you like.

Each job posting can use a separate customized application form.
Jobs can also be posted by specific location if you have more than one office or location.

Customized TalentScreen Applications.
The Web version of the TalentScreen Application allows to add and remove specific question sections like driver experience, post-secondary education etc., depending on what is most relevant to the position you have posted. You can also add your own customized questions to the application form.

TalentSeeker Support.
You will have access to experts on TalentSeeker, and the full HiringSmart program, who will help you make the most of your TalentSeeker program, and who can offer advice and customized solutions to any number of hiring problems you are having.

How TalentSeeker will help you:

  1. Combines advertising of job openings for multiple locations with one ad.

  2. Applications are all in one place for you to see.

  3. Applications are accessible by all people in your company, who are responsible for
    hiring/interviewing, without having to shuffle or send papers back and forth.

  4. You don’t have to worry about illegible handwriting by the applicant, or your
    previous co-worker, who interviewed the applicant and made interview notes.

  5. The online application actually takes place of/eliminates the written application AND the first interview – SAVES YOU TIME.

  6. It doesn’t collect information that the applicant has copied out of a book ... It collects information that matters for you to make a good hiring decision.

  7. By always having your own TalentSeeker URL available, and putting it on your POS material in each location, it enables you to practice perpetual hiring.       (No more problem of not having ready applicants when an employee quits unexpectedly during your busiest season)

  8. There is no extra cost, based on number of applicants/interviews – TalentSeeker offers an affordable flat fee.

  9. When people write an application, they jot down a few sentences or point form (brief) comments.  But when they are at a computer, and can type their response to your questions on an application, they tell you a lot more about themselves.

  10. Keeps previous interviewer notes on file for the next person to interview the candidate.

  11. There is a cost per location … not per application – very cost effective!!!

  12. Eliminates the applicants who simply hand out blanket applications to all employers.

  13. Reduces paper mess.

  14. You can have the application and interviewer notes in front of you to see (while interviewing), but the applicant behind the monitor can’t see them.

  15. Web based, so you can share applications and notes with a hiring manager in another city easily.
