According to Bersin and Associates analyst Leighanne Levensaler: "While profile management may seem like just another 'bell or whistle' feature set promoted by marketing teams, we believe it is a critical aspect of this juggernaut called integrated talent management... Profile management is a key system feature to support integrated talent planning and management." She says "Halogen customers will not have to worry" about the current problems with existing employee profiles; Halogen "does a great job!"
Turn your employee profiles into a truly useful management tool with:
- Flexible, configurable talent profiles that capture any data that’s important to your organization – not just standard, preconfigured fields.
- Highly robust security that provides an unlimited number of secure customizable views so you can let the right people see (or edit) information that's important to them.
- Workflows and email reminders that ensure employees complete their profiles and keep them up to date.
- Superior and intuitive searching and comparison capabilities – so you can easily find exactly what you are looking for.
Discover "Hidden" Talents and be Ready for Emergencies
Unlike other products, Halogen's next generation Talent Profiles are completely configurable, so you can gather any and all data that is important to your department or organization, including things like:
- Work history
- Past appraisals, talent assessments, training and compensation history (content from Halogen modules is auto-filled)
- Formal education, professional certifications and language skills
- Service awards
- Special skills
- Community involvement, hobbies and interests
- Photos
- And anything else that's relevant to your department!
Keep Employee Profiles Complete and Up-to-Date
Employees get an easy to use way to communicate their capabilities, career goals, special skills and more. HR, managers, team leaders and decision-makers get centralized access to useful, up-to-date information to support key decisions and respond to emergencies.
- Include a step in your appraisal or talent assessment process, or create a separate process that requires everyone to update their Talent Profiles
- Send automated email reminders to remind employees about upcoming or past due tasks
- Easily track completion levels and progress
Share Information While Maintaining Confidentiality and Security
Security limitations with traditional employee profile systems mean they can only provide two profile views: a “public view" that is very limited but searchable by all employees, and an administrator/manager view that shows detailed talent information that is too sensitive to be used by other members of the organization.
Halogen eAppraisal™ Public Sector's highly robust security model allows you to:
- Create any number of secure, customized views
- Define exactly which data fields each role or individual can search, view and/or update
- Extend the benefits of your talent profiles to project leaders, succession managers, mentors, hiring managers, etc.
- Guarantee the confidentiality of employee data
Find the Best Candidate Every Time
Launching a new project that requires special knowledge or skills? Dealing with language or culture issues? Trying to identify the best candidate for an open position? Putting together a basketball team for a charitable fund-raiser?
Halogen's superior, highly intuitive, role-based search capability lets you easily search Talent Profiles for a match. Searchers can:
- Use simple keyword search criteria
- Narrow results by easily setting up advanced queries based on particular fields or categories
- Compare profiles, or groups of profiles, side-by-side
- Save the results or export them to another application for more analysis
Give internal recruiters, hiring managers , project leaders and others the tools they need to easily uncover hidden talent, foster collaboration and identify suitable internal candidates, every time.
