2020 has certainly disrupted the HR marketing industry. The uncertainty in the trading environment has driven a push towards automation and insourcing, a rotation in the industries and functions where hiring growth is occurring, and a delay in hiring that will lead to a rush once the uncertainty lifts.
VONQ, combined with IGB, will be ideally positioned in this environment with the right product mix to accommodate the needs of both corporate and staffing customers. IGB will profit from the addition of media purchasing to their business model while VONQ’s Job Marketing Platform will be strengthened by IGB’s programmatic technology. The combination also allows for greater expansion internationally.
