Xref Launches on the Talent App Store Platform

Xref announces its deployment to the Talent App Store platform


● Xref joins the Talent App Store open integration platform

● Answers high demand from SnapHire customers looking to integrate with Xref

● Opens integration opportunities with other leading HR tech providers

Xref Limited (ASX:XF1), the human resources technology company, today announced the successful deployment of its integration into the Talent App Store platform.

Talent App Store is an open integration platform that allows customers to assemble their own HR technology ecosystem, by connecting to the pre-integrated HR apps that matter to them. With Talent App Store, software buying is agile and implementation is efficient and cost effective, with the added protection of API security and identity management.

The Talent App Store model disrupts the typical hub and spoke approach that HR professionals have come to expect when looking for HR tech solutions. The peer-to-peer integration platform creates a lower barrier to entry for the global HR industry and enables Xref to connect with other, smart HR tech solutions that it has no current exclusive integration arrangements with, thus expanding the accessible potential client base for the Company.

Damian Newland, Head of Sales at Aotal (Talent App Store) said: “It’s great to see Xref join the Talent App Store partner community. The platform is already a popular integration solution for many SnapHire clients and the desire for an integrated offering from us both has been high on their list of preferences. Being able to offer users, existing and new, the opportunity to move quickly and easily between our applicant tracking system (ATS) and Xref’s reference checking solution will be a major new selling point for us both.”

SnapHire: Xref’s attention turned to the Talent App Store as a result of increasing demand from SnapHire clients to form an integration between the two platforms. SnapHire’s market-leading applicant tracking system offers a feature-rich and highly configurable platform that enables efficiency from talent sourcing through to acquisition and onboarding. By joining the Talent App Store, Xref will be available to be added to organisations’ HR tech ecosystems, alongside the SnapHire solution. Existing, shared Xref and Snaphire clients include SkyCity, Auckland Transport, BNZ, Kiwi Rail, Summerset Holdings, 2Degrees Mobile, NZ Earthquake Commission, IAG NZ and Callaghan Innovation.

“We are really excited to see Xref’s introduction to the Talent App Store and integration with the SnapHire solution. As a SnapHire customer, we recognise the value of being able to add the apps we use daily to one, centralised HR app ecosystem. Being able to include Xref - a tool we already use and love - to this connected process, will help to further streamline our recruitment.”

Steven Miratana, Manager of Recruitment and Employer Brand at SkyCity
