Taleo Corporation, the provider of on-demand talent management solutions, announced that Panda Restaurant Group, Inc., the Asian restaurant company in the country, has selected Taleo as its talent management platform provider for Recruiting, Onboarding, Assessments and Learning.
Founded in 1973, Panda Restaurant Group, Inc. is comprised of three Asian dining concepts – Panda Express, Panda Inn and Hibachi-San — with more than 1,300 locations nationwide.
Panda’s decision to employ Taleo’s unified suite of Talent Management products will allow the company to: have better insight on the quality of its hires, close the competency gaps in its organization, and ensure the right onboarding and training to keep its talent engaged and productive.
“We currently have approximately 18,000 associates across our family of restaurants,” said Linda Brandt, Chief People Officer of the company. “Taleo’s product suite will afford us the holistic view of our talent along with the actionable intelligence we have been looking for to streamline recruiting, reaffirm our commitment to associate engagement, learning and retention and build our brand as an employer of choice.”

Staffing information this intensive will enable the organization to quickly understand and leverage its best performers and identify areas for further development.
Leonard Yip, Panda’s Chief Information Officer, said, “Taleo’s proven track record of reliably and securely supporting the needs of a growing organization was important to us. In addition, the power of their Talent Management platform will provide us with a toolset we can continue to rely on as we grow our business.”
