isolved Completes Integration of ApplicantPro to Accelerate Talent Acquisition Innovation and Investment

The Companies Are Elevating the Future of Talent Acquisition, Together

NASHVILLE, Tenn., March 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- SHRM Talent isolved®, the most trusted human capital management (HCM) partner, today announced the full integration of ApplicantPro, a longtime leader in talent acquisition solutions, into the isolved brand and business—ushering in the next era of hiring innovation. Now rebranded as isolved Talent Acquisition, formerly ApplicantPro, businesses have the best of both worlds— the option to use a standalone, trusted talent acquisition solution and services or a fully connected, top-rated HCM platform that brings hiring, HR, payroll and benefits together in one system with isolved People Cloud™.

For nearly a decade, isolved has been the parent company of ApplicantPro, operating in parallel to support thousands of businesses in recruiting and retaining top talent. Now, with a fully integrated brand and business, isolved Talent Acquisition offers employers a seamless hiring-to-retention experience while maintaining the flexibility to use the solution independently or as part of the full isolved People Cloud suite.

"There's no better time to bring isolved and ApplicantPro together," said Celia Fleischaker, Chief Marketing Officer at isolved. "With the majority of HR leaders reporting that recruiting and retaining talent is as difficult or more challenging than last year, businesses are prioritizing smarter, more efficient workforce solutions. isolved delivers with enterprise-ready software, expert services and an engaged community of HR, benefits, talent and payroll peers. Whether these leaders need standalone talent acquisition offerings or a full-suite solution, isolved will help them recruit, retain and develop their workforce for better business outcomes."

To further its commitment, isolved continues to invest heavily in talent acquisition innovation, providing its People Heroes and partners with:

• Expanded Recruitment Services – including recruitment marketing and recruitment process outsourcing (RPO) to help companies reach top talent faster.
  
  
• AI-Driven Hiring Innovations – such as candidate matching, automated job ad writing and a soon-to-launch AI-powered virtual hiring assistant.
  
  
• A Fully Connected Experience – intelligently connecting recruiting, HR, payroll, benefits and talent and workforce management in a single platform to improve hiring efficiency and long-term workforce success.

Recognized Industry Leadership & Commitment to Customer Success

isolved's investment in customer experience and innovation has led to growing industry recognition. The company was recently named a Leader in Nucleus Research's SMB HCM Technology Value Matrix for 2025, highlighting its strength in delivering enterprise-ready HR solutions with a focus on usability and return on investment (ROI). isolved was also ranked in the top five for user experience among SMBs across nine product categories in Sapient Insights' 27th Annual HR Systems Survey and earned #1 in customer satisfaction for payroll, benefits, onboarding and time, emphasizing its commitment to delivering solutions that drive real business results.

"As businesses look to simplify their technology stack, they need solutions that work seamlessly together while still offering the depth and expertise required to navigate today's hiring complexities," said Heidi Barnett, former CEO of ApplicantPro and now President of Talent Acquisition Solutions at isolved. "With isolved Talent Acquisition, companies no longer have to choose between an all-in-one suite and a best-in-breed solution. Now, they can have both—an applicant tracking system built for hiring success, fully connected to a powerful HCM platform that streamlines the entire employee journey."

As part of this integration, talent acquisition customers will also gain access to People Heroes World, where they can connect with peers in the People Heroes Community, earn certifications through People Heroes University and join in-person events like Connect for People Heroes and Community Meetups to continue learning and growing in their careers. Registration is now open.
