MCI, the exclusive distributor for Bond International Software in South Africa and the largest distributor of staffing software in South Africa, today announced that the latter has forged a new key strategic partnership with Chicago-based Valtera, a leading selection and assessment provider.
The partnership will provide customers with an end-to-end product to manage their recruitment and assessment processes and strengthens Bond`s position as the leader in workforce management solutions.
Bond will team its workforce management software with Valtera`s online assessment instrument, SelectionSage. Coupled with SelectionSage, Bond International can now automate and streamline all portions of the employee selections process. The integration will appear seamless to both administrators and candidates.
"The result will be the first scientifically grounded assessment engine within a workforce management system," commented Zachary Thomas, Manager of Bond`s Workforce Solutions Division. "Our goal is to continue to lead in our existing markets and to become the leading supplier and industry standard for recruitment management software and this move will help us achieve that."
"This partnership provides us with the opportunity to extend the reach of SelectionSage and realise its potential for employers as well as venture into new geographic territory," added Michael Butler, Valtera`s Vice-President of Sales.
"It`s a logical next step for Valtera, and we`re excited to take that step with Bond International."
