As the RPO industry’s technology leader, Cielo seeks opportunities to equip its teams and clients with the latest insights, trends and tools to drive optimum results. Technology and automation were already accelerating in talent acquisition and human resources, but COVID-19 has supercharged organizations’ digitization efforts.

“Elaine is one of the most-respected names in the talent technology industry, and she’s been an advocate and trusted source of information for Cielo for a long time,” said Sue Marks, Cielo founder and CEO. “The pace of change continues to accelerate in our rapidly evolving digital world. We sought this partnership to augment our internal team and view of the technology landscape so we can continue to keep Cielo and our clients ahead of the curve.”

Orler will collaborate with Cielo’s technology team to help craft the organization’s digitization and this vision will shape the path of RPO and TA. This exclusive partnership offers unique value to Cielo clients who can benefit from her decades of helping leading organizations transform their talent acquisition framework and processes.

Additional Talent Function resources will lend their experience in talent tech as systems advisors to enable Cielo’s expansion of the technology consulting practice in response to increased demand from clients.

“Cielo’s leadership team and business focus align with Talent Function’s values and our passion for client success,” said Orler. “There is a natural synergy in our services and values. We look forward to working together to communicate what’s up and coming in the tech space in a way that helps organizations understand what talent technology makes sense for their needs.”
