JotForm Tables looks like a spreadsheet but acts like a database. This tool works by organizing form submission data, imported data and manually entered data into one feature-rich interface. It’s powered by a sophisticated forms engine, making data collection streamlined and simple. JotForm Tables lets HR teams: * Collect and organize applications * Manage PTO requests * Evaluate interviewees as a team * Create a checklist for new hires * And much more “Spreadsheets are great for working with data, but they have significant limitations and don’t work for HR teams looking to collaborate in a single workspace,” said Aytekin Tank, founder and CEO of JotForm. “So, we built something better – a tool that looks like a spreadsheet, but is much more powerful since it’s supported by a sophisticated online forms product.” https://hrtechfeed.com/jotform-tables-launches-as-a-new-way-to-manage-tedious-hr-tasks/ ADP®, a leading global provider of human capital management (HCM) solutions, is deepening its integration with ZipRecruiter®, the fastest-growing online employment marketplace2 and #1-rated job search app.3 ADP is the first HCM provider to make ZipRecruiter available directly to customers through its online platform.

Originally designed as a marketplace to allow executive-level women to re-enter the world of work in a flexible manner after having a family, it later expanded into a wider market for anyone wanting to work flexibly and for employers who need that kind of workforce. But with the world of work totally upended by the pandemic, “flexibility” is literally now the name of the game. Juggle has now disclosed its funding of $2.1 million from investors in the U.K. and the U.S. Investors include a number of the U.K.’s leading angels... With many businesses moving to flexible working arrangements, whether that means remote work, part-time, or shared roles, Juggle connects them with professionals that aren’t the typical “9-to-5” type people. Professionals sign up for the service, and recruitment tools allow them to schedule and keep track of job applications; coaching and support are available. Juggle also provides “smart matching” and the necessary paperwork to allow for these flexible roles. Businesses using Juggle to find the right candidate are vetted in advance to ensure that they embrace flexibility, so both employers and employees know what they are getting. Founded by former headhunter Romanie Thomas, a core mission for Juggle, she said, is to see women in 50% of business leadership roles by 2027. Since launching in 2017, Thomas said 62% of all placements made by Juggle have been female. https://hrtechfeed.com/juggle-secures-2-1m-to-expand-its-flexible-work-saas-marketplace-for-senior-execs/ eQuest today announced that it will transform the way people post Internet jobs. Beginning Monday, November 16, 2020, customers with Amazon Echo or Alexa Built-in devices will be able to say, “Alexa, open job posting”. This key command will automatically connect the voice-user to eQuest – which holds the entire catalog of jobs for that customer to access for job posting. The user can then say, “post a job” or “check activity”. Gartner predicts that, by 2023, 25 percent of employee interactions with applications will be via voice, up from under 3 percent in 2019. Voice interfaces free digital workers from having to use a mouse and keyboard when interacting with business applications. This freedom can benefit workers greatly. eQuest announced earlier this year that much of its strategy for 2020 and 2021 will be focused on automating the greater percentage of its products. The voice activated release is one many planned for release in the next 18 months. “We are very excited to bring new technologies to the Human Resources community,” said Bob Jaworski, in charge of eQuest’s ATS and CRM alliances. “Our goal is to automate much of the job posting process. Simplicity is the name of the game.” https://hrtechfeed.com/equest-to-release-voice-activated-job-posting/
