Hi, I’m Lyle from Scout Talent and this is our Tech Talk. Today I’m going to talk a little bit about our recruitment software, but first, I’m the business leader here at scout talent and recruitment has always been a passion of mine. For me, hiring the best talent possible has been key to my success as a business leader both through my Flight Centre career and here at Scout Talent. Getting the right person is key. Our recruitment software is a candidate management system that streamlines all of the recruitment processes: everything from talent acquisition to onboarding.
It’s available in different modules so only has the components you need to make your recruitment process better. We know that 39% of candidates will lose interest if the recruitment process is long and arduous. That means that a lot of companies who are using those recruitment processes will lose out on great candidates. We also know that candidates will tell up to 3 people if they’ve had a bad candidate experience. Scout Recruit is our candidate management system and has several modules that will help you with your recruitment needs, depending on what those are, you can customize the tool to work best for you.
Scout Talent has been in business for 13 years. We have over 10o employees in Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the Philippines. We have 7,000 monthly users. Our software is really great for organizations that want to speed up their recruitment process. They have a lot of recruitment going on..or even just a little, but to keep it organized we need to take that out of email and spreadsheets and get it into one centralized system so that it’s easy to manage and doesn’t take a lot of time.
Because Scout Recruit works well with any company, we have clients across a wide variety of industries. From First Nations groups, who we’re so proud to help support those communities in Canada and Australia. We work with a lot of government organizations, construction, trades.. It’s endless. Because the software is really designed to simplify and speed up your recruitment process, it doesn’t matter what industry you’re in, we can help.
Scout Recruit has many modules, that can really help with any part of the recruitment process. First, we start with Essentials, Which starts off for smaller companies who are looking to get some sophistication in their recruitment process but don’t have a lot of money and they’re not really hiring that much. You can hire up to 3 people at a time, keep a general expression of interest open so that you’re always attracting candidates and it really makes that simple and easy.
Scout Recruit is the full version of recruitment software, suitable for larger companies who have a more robust recruitment need. There are several modules that you can add on, but only as needed, to help make that recruitment process more sophisticated. Scout Recruit was built for recruiters, by recruiters. Which means it’s easy to use, intuitive to the recruitment process.

We’re really proud of the fact that it streamlines that process. our system highly encourages the use of screening questions, our customers can really narrow down who they’re looking at quickly and easily. Recently, we had a client use our system for an Administrative Assistant role. He had over 100 applicants, he had never done recruitment before, and he was able to screen those candidates in a timely manner and get back to them really quickly which means he didn’t lose any candidate and was able to make sure that he hired the best person.
