Paycor Smart Sourcing (formerly Talenya) Reviews & Product Details

Talenya greatly simplifies sourcing for me. It provides many options for refining my search and targeting the most suitable candidates. Then, best of all, it assists me in creating a series of emails that are sent to prospective candidates from either a representative of Talenya, from me or through a LinkedIn Inmail. It does a lot of the work for me, freeing up my time to focus on other areas. Working with their strong customer success team has been an added plus. I meet with my current Customer Success Manager, Shree Naik, weekly to review my requisitions and current candidates. His input has been invaluable! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only change I would recommend is a way to have a weekly list accessible of all the candidates that responded. Going through my emails to respond to the candidates or going through each requisition on Talenya can be time-consuming. The way Shree, my Customer Success Manager, improved on this was to put a weekly spreadsheet or Word document together and email it to me so I could go right to the specific candidates that responded.

The ability to find a wide pool of candidates. The ability to be able to qualify or disqualify candidates based on a wide variety of criteria instead of being able to select multiple factors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Despite several attempts, it felt like the algorithm had trouble identifying candidates for my roles; it may have been due to the inability to qualify or disqualify candidates based on multiple factors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We like that Talenya finds candidates that we normally would not find in our traditional ways of sourcing. We are not only finding more qualified candidates, but also candidates from all walks of life. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only downside we have found with Talenya has been having to go into the platform and go through several candidates for the AI to turn on and learn what we are looking for. This is a time-consuming exercise for our TA team and in some instances, the 7-8 candidates needed for the AI to turn on, turn into 20 (for some niche roles).

The ability to build searches and source and follow-up with interested candidates; the level of detail of each search; The ability to drill down and train the AI as if it were a Recruiter. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I see no downsize to the tool other than Recruiters are unwilling to give up on Linkedin for another sourcing technology. I suggested a "dedicated" sourcer as most recruiters have a relationship piece to their responsibility, and with an extra sourcing tool, our bandwidth is diminished immensely Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This is a tool that requires little effort from talent acquisition professionals. Talenya runs on an automated process of algorithms, so TA professionals can focus on other areas while the tool works in parallel. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If you have the budget for a tool like this, I do recommend it. It is a helpful tool to combat the challenges many companies face in attracting talent. It is a nice to have, but not essential. TA professionals are able to do the same work as this tool it just may take more time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the way it works, there are candidates, there are hires. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only downside is that Linkedin sometimes blocks a profile if you overdo it with campaigns. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Talenya makes it easy and quick to find well-qualified, diverse candidates that are a good fit for my open roles. It automates the tedious and time-consuming process of sourcing manually. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It can sometimes take a while for the AI tool to learn what I'm looking for. I usually have to look through at least 10-12 candidate profiles before the AI function can begin working properly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is an excellent tool to source without consuming so much time. It has much more information than LinkedIn; the search also includes diverse candidates, which is always essential for a company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would only like it to be visually more aesthetic and to add more diversity to the searches, but in reality, its functionality seems impressive. I wish I had found it earlier! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This saves me SO MUCH trouble by having to consistently and find new and retain talent. I love how everything is so easy and automated and it even allows me to get the data reporting as well Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There aren't really anything painpoints other than just the cost but it is well done. It also isn't UI or user friendly which can always be changed Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
