It's been a busy Tuesday for acquisitions in the TA tech space. RNN reported on OutMatch's acquisition of Checkster earlier, and now it's iCIMS turn. The Holmdel, New Jersey based ATS vendor has announced they are scooping up EASYRECRUE, a leading European video interview platform. The details of the deal were not disclosed at time of publication.

This acquisition triples iCIMS’ global footprint, now with more than 100 employees in EMEA, and extends the capabilities of the Talent Cloud, providing its user community of more than 330 million candidates and hiring professionals with an opportunity to leverage cutting-edge video interviewing technology and assessment capabilities. This supports the critical need for customers to globally interview and assess candidates digitally, through video.   

“EASYRECRUE’s innovative AI technology and support for virtual interviewing, talent assessments, and internal talent mobility solutions coupled with the iCIMS Talent Cloud will empower our customers to better identify, recruit, and invest in top talent,” said Steve Lucas, CEO of iCIMS. “We are thrilled to welcome Mickaël, the entire EASYRERECRUE team, and its community of nearly 400 customers as we expand iCIMS’ presence in Europe.”  

With the acquisition of EASYRECRUE, iCIMS’ customers will have the ability to integrate new live and on-demand video interviewing functionalities, scheduling capabilities, and customizable assessments in their use of the Talent Cloud. Similarly, EASYRECRUE’s customers will have the opportunity to seamlessly plug their solutions into the Talent Cloud, further supporting their ability to attract, engage, hire, and advance world-class talent.

RNN fully expects this pace of acquisitions to continue for the foreseeable future, as larger, well capitalized players in the market scoop up point solutions to build out their platforms.
