How SOCi automates hiring, onboarding, and paying with Deel

SOCi empowers multi-location enterprises to automate and scale marketing efforts across all digital channels in a way that’s brand-directed, locally perfected, and data connected. As one central place to scale marketing, SOCi is a platform built for both enterprise and local teams.

Originally, SOCi’s talent acquisition, hiring, and payroll processes were manual and lacked a source of truth. It used different platforms for the interviewing and candidate processes, requiring their team to export data to their internal files, leading to repetitive manual entry that was error prone.

Whenever someone was hired, the entire payroll operations were handled on paper through SOCi’s accounts payable team, causing mistakes and delays. “We were just doing manual processes using our own paper invoices that weren’t flowing in consistently,” explained Craig Single, VP of Talent Acquisition & People Analytics.

Plus, SOCi only had entities in a few countries. Its team was limited to hiring in those locations, which kept them from accessing the global pool of talent.

At the beginning of 2022, SOCi faced a rapid growth phase and needed to hire the best talent possible as fast as it could. Handling this demand through its internal process would’ve cost SOCi too much time, effort, and money.

That’s when they heard about Deel. SOCi was interested in how Deel’s platform and integration with Greenhouse would enable it to make the hiring, onboarding, and payroll processes go from hours to just a few clicks while staying compliant

Going from managing multiple unconnected platforms to getting all the data from different processes in just one place changed the game for SOCi. It now has insightful reports that provide its People team with more clarity, enabling better decision-making. “Prior to turning on the integration with Greenhouse, our processes were very manual, and now they’ve gone to a few minutes and clicks, eliminating data errors and knowing it’s secure,” Singles said.

These results are due to an incredibly successful collaboration between SOCi’s team and their Customer Success Manager at Deel, who provided ongoing support throughout the entire process. Singles said, “We established a great relationship with our account management team [at Deel]... they've helped us make sure we’re using Deel in the most efficient way and how they’re constantly coming up with new solutions to solve the problems we have.”

Through Deel, SOCi was able to scale its team and enter the global talent market at the speed it needed to meet the company’s goals. It went to hiring in +20 locations. Single explained, “We now have team members in 25 countries as a result of Deel being able to fast track the process of bringing on the talent we needed globally”.

SOCi는 필요에 따라 팀을 확장할 수 있었을 뿐만 아니라 Deel Connect와 Greenhouse의 간소화된 통합을 통해 채용 프로세스를 가속화하고 데이터를 한 플랫폼에서 다른 플랫폼으로 단 몇 초 만에 오류 없이 전송할 수 있었습니다. "이제 우리는 하나의 통합 인보이스로 모든 것을 관리하는 통합 소스를 확보했고 NetSuite와 우리 ATS를 연결했습니다.라고 Single은 말합니다.

SOCi는 새로운 Deel 기능, 그중에서도 데이터 및 보고 도구에 대한 기대가 크며 글로벌 데이터를 쉽게 얻고 분석하고 최적화하기 위해 Deel을 사용할 것을 고려하고 있습니다.
