Smartlinx, a leading provider of workforce management solutions for senior care organizations, has acquired StafferLink, a provider of contingent staffing management software for the healthcare industry. StafferLink’s cloud-based Vendor Management System (VMS) and Agency Staffing Management (ASM) software products were purpose-built for healthcare facilities, agencies and managed service providers (MSPs) to source, manage and pay their contingent workforce. In aggregate, StafferLink is used to fill over 2 million shifts and manage over $1 billion of spend annually across more than 2,000 agencies. Together, Smartlinx and StafferLink will be able to deliver end-to-end solutions that enable healthcare organizations to optimize their utilization of full-time and supplemental staff.
TalentLMS, a leading employee training platform, in partnership with employee experience platform WorkTango, released a joint study that suggests organizational change is hindered by workers’ heightened anxiety, declining trust in leadership, and a lack of support. The survey of 1,200 U.S. employees, who underwent significant workplace transitions in the past year, sheds light on the key roadblocks to well-led change and identifies paths to overcome them. Employees report heavier workloads, less work-life balance, and high stress and burnout — factors they also say lead to lower job satisfaction and a desire to find other jobs.
Recruitics, the industry-leading AI-powered recruitment marketing platform, announced the official launch of ApplyAnywhere, a new solution built to turn every online channel into a candidate conversion engine and drive higher-quality hiring results. ApplyAnywhere addresses two of today’s biggest recruitment challenges at once: the growing drop-off in application completions and the rising flood of unqualified applicants. By 2028, one in four job candidates globally will be fake, according to research and advisory firm Gartner, and employers must work now to future-proof their hiring processes. By removing unnecessary friction and introducing purposeful “positive friction” through integrated screener questions, ApplyAnywhere ensures more of the right candidates complete the application process and get delivered directly into a client’s ATS, CRM, or engagement solution for next steps.
