Talent pool

The talent pool is an (online) database in which profiles of candidates and employees are managed. The talent pool primarily functions as a tool for recruiting and HR to recruit staff. It can also be used as part of Active Sourcing and personnel development.

The database contains, for example, profiles of employees with special knowledge, second-best applicants, former employees or prospective candidates gathered at career fairs. It enables quick access to information relevant to filling a position.
