Vendor Blurb

Talroo provides an all-in-one recruitment marketing and programmatic talent network solution that offers three distinct products that can be used indibidually or combined in their Talroo Ad Platform (TAP): Pro (job advertising), Hiring Events, and Insights (market data and analytics), specializing in hourly and high-volume roles within the US.

Impressions

Tip
Strengths and Advantages

(where the solution stands out or shows impact potential)

  • Provides a dynamic range of recruitment marketing solutions that are each well-designed for performance and with candidate experience in mind

  • Direct connection to pre-engaged network of talent improves the likelihood of applicants with better conversion potential

  • Reporting is pretty good and their market insights appear to be strong

  • Can be operated standalone (if needed) for a faster implementation time

  • Talroo Apply can be used to bypass career site application portals (dropping applicants directly in ATS) or email to Recruiters' inbox

Warning
Gaps and Challenges

(things that the solution overlooks or under-delivers on)

  • US-only regional coverage, with tentative and far-off plans to expand into Canada and UK/EMEA over time

  • As with all programmatic, determining budgets can be tricky as spend rates aren’t predictable (although platform has guardrail features for managing spend)

Note
Risks

(anything that could affect ROI; cost, complexity, process gaps, etc.)

  • Network of job sites and posting locations is more limited than a solution like Appcast, but this isn’t necessarily a problem, depending on required scope

  • Not designed for Niche/Professional jobs (can be used for this, but Network is strongest for hourly roles)

Additional Considerations

(potential use cases, impact, deployment scale, company size, etc.)

  • Talroo’s comprehensive platform (TAP) seems to be the way to go if you’re looking to experiment with alternative recruitment marketing strategies, as each component is designed to work with the others (and each on their own are decent, but not game-changing)
