Kronos Customers Rapidly Adopting Mobile Hiring Solution


CHELMSFORD, Mass. --(Business Wire)--

Today's leading organizations are quickly adopting mobile access for the Kronos Incorporated automated hiring solution to drive the next wave of talent acquisition growth. Recently released mobile capabilities enable job candidates to easily apply for positions from any location at any time using a smart phone or tablet device. The ease of use and on-the-go convenience of mobile access with an automatically optimized view using familiar devices enhances the application experience for job candidates by moving them through the process in a more efficient manner.

News Facts

  • Workforce Talent Acquisition helps organizations source, screen, and select best-fit job candidates - both hourly and salaried - with speed and efficiency.
  • While many organizations have optimized their websites for viewing on mobile devices, the process of applying for a job has lagged behind, leaving job candidates frustrated by having to navigate a desktop view on a mobile device.
  • Workforce Talent Acquisition now goes beyond enabling candidates to apply for jobs via mobile devices. It automatically detects the type of mobile or desktop browser the job candidate is using and optimizes the view accordingly. Job candidates have the option of using the organization's mobile-optimized website, or using a full-site view of the website.
  • Mobile capabilities for Workforce Talent Acquisition are delivered as a touch-optimized website for Android (News - Alert)™ and iOS smart phones and tablet devices, and are also compatible with a variety of other mobile devices, providing a familiar user experience in each environment.
  • Mobile capabilities are available at no charge to organizations that use the Workforce Talent Acquisition solution.
