Even after more than a year into working from home, HR teams are still struggling to carry the burden of managing a remote workforce.

Twenty-six percent of employees believe the way their organizations communicate internally has deteriorated in the last 12 months, according to data from Project.co, a project management software platform. More than a third of businesses say they have lost an employee because of poor internal communication, and 70% of employees have left a company for a competitor due to disorganization.

To ease these pain points, people analytics platform ChartHop recently announced a partnership with talent acquisition suite provider Jobvite. ChartHop is pairing its scenario planning tools with Jobvite’s Applicant Tracking System, in order to open the communication pipeline among teams, automate hiring processes and create a space to manage plans more visually.

“It really changes the way management teams, recruiting teams, finance teams and people leaders can approach their workflow,” says Ian White, ChartHop CEO. “Being able to take their end-to-end hiring process from the very beginning of headcount planning and the requisition process, all the way to hiring and candidate experience really closes that loop.”

The integration was launched in hopes to enable HR, hiring and finance leaders to improve communication across teams, increase visibility and utilize data and automate elements of their hiring workflows. When it comes to recruiting, Charthop’s tools will include headcount planning, allowing employers to push start dates through faster. HR leaders will also be able to monitor recruiting data to create reports that illustrate open roles, candidates and offers.

Beyond recruiting, the partnership will also provide HR teams with organization charts, enabling teams to keep their company’s org chart updated with every new hire. Automating this process will take the bureaucratic burden off of HR teams, so they can focus on building a better business, White says.

“If we can streamline [HR leaders] work and take some of the lift and load of routine data access off of them, it helps them do the things that they do best, like building great culture and retaining and recruiting,” White says. “That's a huge win for everybody.”
