SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwired - Jul 13, 2016) - Talent Board, a non-profit organization focused on the elevation and promotion of a quality candidate experience, today announced that Phenom People, the leader in Talent Relationship Marketing, will support the 2016 Candidate Experience (CandE) Awards program as a global underwriter.

"Talent Board has done a tremendous job in bringing awareness to an often overlooked aspect of the recruiting process -- how candidates view the experience, and the resulting impact on an employer's ability to attract and retain talent," said Mahe Bayireddi, CEO of Phenom People. "At Phenom People, we deliver the technology that helps employers automate key processes in the talent relationship lifecycle, delivering a quality experience for all candidates. As this mission perfectly dovetails with that of Talent Board, we are thrilled to support its efforts in helping employers around the world improve their candidate experience."

"More companies understand the importance of the candidate experience they provide, and its role in attracting top candidates, improving their employer brand and being seen as an employer of choice for job seekers who are more informed than ever," said Elaine Orler, chairman and co-founder of Talent Board. "As the Candidate Experience Awards continues to expand, we rely on the support of organizations that share our mission in raising awareness of the need to continually enhance the recruiting process. We are thrilled to work with Phenom People, as the company demonstrates its commitment to elevating the candidate experience through its cutting-edge technology."

For the past six years, Talent Board has conducted the CandE Awards program to help participating employers understand how their actual job candidates viewed their recruiting practices. The program also helps to educate the community at large with best practices for the entire candidate journey; having collected more than 130,000 candidate surveys in 2015 alone, the program continues to serve as the leading source for reliable insight into candidate experience and how it can be improved.

As the CandE Awards continue to grow, the program has expanded beyond its original North American program to include programs in Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) and Asia-Pacific (APAC). As a global underwriter, Phenom People is instrumental in supporting Talent Board's operations for all three programs, helping more employers around the globe benchmark their practices and learn what they can do to deliver an exemplary candidate experience.
