Clustree, the software that supports the internal promotion of employees – Challenges.fr

Skip the HR manager in business developer within the same company is now possible. “Our technology, which processes data online CVs and our customers, such as GDF Suez, identifies the skills required to fill a vacancy,” says the founder of Clustree, Benedicta of Raphelis Soissan. “The software then recommends a list of profiles from different internal departments.”

Positions, performances, attendance: the algorithm used by the company Clustree analysis of thousands of career paths to optimize conversions. This truly innovative solution has attracted investors. Last month, the company has raised 600,000 euros from Alven Capital Fund. The objective of Clustree is twofold: to exploit the hidden employees instead of hiring talent. Anticipate and jumps original career.

benedict Raphelis Soissan has realized that such managers and business developers sharing a good overview of the company, crucial to take these two positions. His solution breaks the ideas: “We always said that HR does not know how to sell or develop an activity because it deals with the human, then that is completely wrong We must break down barriers and trades. developing skills rather than training. ” Clearly, no need to graduate HEC for a position as a sales manager. The potential prevails on the resume.



Reassure RH

This cross-business approach reminds A study conducted in 2013 by the firm Evolv . The optimization specialist employee performance had already demonstrated that there was no real correlation between the success of a candidate holding a new position and experience accumulated in the past.

“But HR departments are afraid to change their methods of recruitment,” the founder of Clustree advance. “By showing, supporting data, some jumps career fully satisfactory to employers, I have to overcome their reluctance. A significant percentage of conversion exists among executives, because we trust them. But in reality Everyone has untapped ability “

To Froissant Jacques, CEO of recruitment firm Altaïde 2.0, this technology also reduce discrimination”! Human intervention is not always pragmatic in terms of recruitment. HR often tend to consider arbitrary factors such as age, sex or origin. Sorting through the CV big data would streamline the selection and give a chance to everyone. “

30% savings

Clustree offer another advantage: significant savings on hiring by valuing the talents already in the business. “On average, recruitment costs via a specialized firm amounted to 25,000 euros per head,” said Benedict of Raphelis Soissan. “My solution could reduce by 30% the annual budget for hiring. Either three million euros in savings each year by a company such as GDF Suez, which has 200,000 employees.”

Despite the undeniable advantages of this new solution, Jacques Froissant does not worry for the future of headhunters:” For the moment, this type of algorithm is only useful for very large companies . Above all, it does not yet replace human expertise, which remains critical to recommend a candidate “

But the boss Altaïde recognizes the importance of these emerging tools.: “At LinkedIn, 400 people working on big data to improve their software matching. We could apply the technical recruitment Clustree all-out.”
