IDC Analyst Brief 2022
The talent acquisition (TA) technology ecosystem is crowded with new vendors frequently appearing, offering niche capabilities to complement existing recruiting technology suites. Point solutions provided by emerging vendors often offer capabilities that address tactical areas of the hiring life cycle.
While competition encourages innovation within the ecosystem, the continued emergence of new vendors increases the complexity of the market and ultimately the burden of choice for buyers in understanding the ideal tech stack for their talent acquisition needs weighed against their organization’s tolerance for multiple vendors and contracts.
