Resume Mirror Chosen by Leading IT Services Firm, Cognizant
2 December 2005
Resume Mirror, Inc., developers of leading-edge recruiting technology components, today announced it has signed a contract with Cognizant Technology Solutions, a global IT Services firm. Cognizant is licensing Resume Mirror’s Enterprise Applicant Manager™ (EAM™) and EngeniumHR™ products and will be deploying them as components of their internal resume processing and applicant searching system.
The combination of EAM and EngeniumHR delivers advanced capabilities to optimize the experience of candidates applying to open positions and enables Cognizant’s recruiting staff to quickly and accurately search and match those candidates to their open positions.
EAM provides key functionality to simplify the application process and improve communication with candidates after they have applied. EngeniumHR gives Cognizant recruiters advanced search capabilities and provides sub-second matching and ranking of candidates to open positions. The combined Resume Mirror solution allows for the submission of resumes by any means including email, web or fax, while also addressing key data security and communication issues. The solution streamlines Cognizant’s recruiting process by speeding resume data submissions into their candidate management system, accelerating the searching and matching of candidates to open positions and improving the overall productivity of its recruiting teams.
“An efficient and effective recruiting process is essential to meeting the needs of our clients and sustaining our growth,” said Mark Greenlaw, CIO of Cognizant. “We needed a state of the art tool to help us attract, select and hire the finest professionals in the world. In researching the market, Resume Mirror technologies were recommended by both customers and analysts to meet both our technical and business needs.”
“We are delighted to be working with Cognizant, a world leading IT Services company," said Praj Patel, general manager of Resume Mirror. "As more and more companies look to outsource, firms like Cognizant must have the capability to respond to these demands by quickly finding and hiring highly qualified staff. Securing the relationship with Cognizant positions Resume Mirror as a key HR component supplier within the important and growing IT Services and BPO market,” added Patel.
“Cognizant’s selection of EAM as its core resume processing solution is a powerful validation of our technology in the marketplace,” said Don Darrah, Resume Mirror’s vice president, Enterprise Applicant Services. “Cognizant will deploy the key functionality of EAM, including the plug-in for Microsoft® Outlook®, in a broad system that will handle large volumes of resumes. The new functionality will ultimately be integrated into Cognizant’s PeopleSoft environment. Additionally, we can now offer support for Indian resumes which is an important differentiator for us in the IT Services and BPO segment,” continued Darrah.
