Talent Ecology: Yes! I've been waiting for this. iPhone meets Salesforce.com

Yes! I've been waiting for this. iPhone meets Salesforce.com

Posted by Sean Rehder (Permalink) | 0 Comments | | Monday, August 20, 2007

GoKubi.com is the blog of a Salesforce.com guru and he just posted up one of his tricks in regards to the Apple iPhone and Salesforce.com.

So, for all my clients using Salesforce for their talent acquisition and recruiting... before we could "get at the data" with a blackberry / treo. Now, it looks like it can also be done through the iPhone, too. Yet another reason why I need to get one of these things.

Because both the iPhone and Salesforce.com are "web based" apps, the future for integration between the two is very exciting. With company's like Ryan Money's HireVue.com, which is a web based app that provides pre-determined video interviews (not resumes!), providing web based interviews...how cool would it be to go through a set of interviews on your iPhone on your way home...as long you ain't driving.

I don't know if this capability exists right now, but the future is bright.
