ENGAGE's patent-pending Talent Retention Risk (TRR) ScoreSM is an employment volatility benchmark that enables real-time predictive recruiting and retention decision making. ENGAGE's TRR Scores also position organizations to anticipate and plan for future skill supply and demand gaps. The company's proprietary ENGAGE 5D ProfileSM predicts the optimal candidate-specific workplace attraction characteristics, enabling organizations to tailor recruitment and retention messaging based on the unique attributes most likely to optimize job appeal, including company environment, organizational stability, strength of leadership, and opportunities for growth. The ENGAGE Talent platform is relied on by global industry leaders, including Allstate, Dell (News - Alert), and Saint Gobain. ENGAGE's data science model was recently validated in a Harvard Business Review article, which found that the candidates ENGAGE identified as "most likely" to be receptive to new opportunities were twice as responsive t unsolicited recruitment messages and 63% more likely to change jobs, as compared to those who were predicted to be "unlikely" to be receptive. "Problem solving with data science is in our DNA," said Joseph Hanna, founder and CEO of ENGAGE Talent. "That makes us a great fit for Workforce Logiq.
