Improving Talent Experience in Healthcare

The healthcare industry, in particular, has the opportunity to benefit from the Infor and iCIMS partnership. Together, the two companies manage key business processes for 10 of the top 16 U.S. health systems. iCIMS’ platform data shows significantly fewer people are applying for jobs in the health services sector compared to the number of open positions. It has never been more important for healthcare organizations to build and retain strong teams to support the nurses and doctors that continue to be stretched to their limits as pandemic challenges persist.
