Hi Jon/Joe,

For an organization considering implementing e-recruiting and recognizing that SAP has come a long way in this area up to an including EHP5, I'd like to know, in your opinion, where does SAP e-recruiting still come up short compared to the Taleo's, PeopleClick's, etc. Do you see SAP addressing these shortfalls in upcoming EHPs or is stronger lobbying required by SAP customers?

Thanks,
Brian

Hi John / Joe,

SAP are now promoting there predefined consulting services solutions for eRecruitment and the SAP enhanced user interface.

Do you have any experience with these services and what value these will offer to customers in terms of cost/benefit, reduced implementation time, etc?

Regards

Rob Makinson

Hi Brian,

Good to hear from you – I think we may have met at a previous HR conference.  In all honesty, I have been working with SAP E-Recruiting for more than 6 years and it has come a long way.  We continue to see SAP E-Recruiting being chosen and implemented over (and to replace) other “best of breeds”.

With that said, there are some shortfalls that customers typically point out, such as the ability to schedule interviews, offer letters, and dispositioning a single candidate from mutliple requisitions.  I haven't heard that any of these are being targeted for future EhPs, but since we hear about them so often, I'm sure that SAP is aware.

I hope this helps,

Jon
