Monday, April 14, 2008

Taleo Corporation (NASDAQ: TLEO), the leading provider of on demand talent management solutions, today announced that NCO Group, Inc., a global provider of business process outsourcing (BPO) services, will deploy Taleo's industry leading recruiting solution across its worldwide operations, starting with the United States and Canada in early spring. NCO Group selected the solution based on Taleo's global reach, flexible integration with other HR technologies, and depth of functionality when it came to online recruiting of the salaried and hourly candidates that make up the company's talent pool.

"As a BPO service provider, our 27,500 employees are at the core of our service offerings -- without them, we simply can't deliver on our client initiatives to reduce operating expenses, increase cash flow, and improve the customers' experience," said Cherie Sugg, Senior Vice President of Human Resources, NCO Group. "We needed a recruiting solution that helped us uncover the best candidates for positions in our operation centers across the globe. Taleo not only offered the most robust recruiting solution, but their proven expertise within the financial services space made them even more attractive as we made our purchase decision."

NCO Group has been operating since 1926 and is now an industry leader in providing clients with successful BPO solutions, including accounts receivable management, customer relationship management services, and back office services across a broad range of industries. NCO Group operates a global network of more than 140 operations centers in locations that include the United States, Canada, the Philippines, Panama, the Caribbean, India, the United Kingdom, Australia, and Mexico.

"Early on, Taleo recognized the importance of building a recruiting application that supported companies such as NCO Group in their quest to hire candidates in locations across the globe," said Michael Gregoire, president and CEO of Taleo. "With Taleo Recruiting, companies can have it all -- a scalable, configurable, easy-to-use recruiting solution that integrates with their other HR technology and also stands up to global recruiting challenges."
