IBM releases Kenexa Talent Suite

On January 27, 2014 IBM announced the cloud-based Kenexa Talent Suite that brings together talent acquisition, talent optimization, and social networking for visibility into hiring practices and strategies. The Talent Suite unifies Kenexa’s core functionality and integrates with Watson Foundations for executives to expand visibility in hiring and connect hiring practices to recruitment strategies. While HR vendors are focused on cultivating top talent, improving employee retention, engagement, and performance, the Kenexa Talent Suite connects top talent management to IBM’s analytics solutions to break the data silos on employee lifecycle management.
