Taleo, a leading on demand recruiting company for small to medium sized businesses announced in late September it merged with HRhome, an online resource center for HR professionals. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

What Were They Thinking?

HRhome, a provider of tools and processes to ensure employees are hired and managed correctly will now be joined by Taleo who combines state of the art technology with the recruiting process. Taleo and HRhome will be able to utilize each other’s core competencies which will bring structure and guidance to the employee management process along with HR best practices.

Both companies seek cross-selling opportunities. While HRhome focuses on such critical areas such as compliance, employment law, workplace safety and polices, Taleo is known for its comprehensive recruiting services. Whereas in the past customers would have had to use several different sources for their HR necessities, this merger provides them with a complete HR platform that covers all of their needs. The partnership will create a comprehensive solution for the recruiting and compliance needs of HR professionals that is unique in the sector.
