Phenom, the No. 1 provider of Talent Experience Management solutions, has been recognized as a Strategic Leader in the 2021 Fosway 9-Grid for Talent Acquisition. Fosway identifies Strategic Leaders as companies that provide a rich suite of capabilities across a broad scope of features and have the sophistication to meet the needs of complex enterprise-scale customers. Additionally, these solutions achieve higher levels of customer impact and advocacy compared to alternatives in the market.
The Fosway Group 9-Grid™ report for Talent Acquisition indicates the relative position of solutions and providers in the European talent acquisition system space.

“Phenom’s focus on disrupting the candidate and hiring experiences, has resonated strongly with the market,” said David Wilson, CEO of Fosway. “Rapid growth in adoption in enterprise organisations, as well as expanded physical presence and multiple market acquisitions is further accelerating its success in Europe and globally. All of these warrant Phenom’s increased rating as a Strategic Leader for Talent Acquisition in 2021.”
