Investment supports Mercer’s focus on new technologies and
analytics
Mercer, a global consulting leader in advancing health, wealth,
and careers, and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Marsh & McLennan
Companies, Inc. (NYSE: MMC), announced today an investment in
Pymetrics along with Khosla Ventures. Pymetrics is reinventing the
recruiting process by using big data, neuroscience and machine
learning to identify optimal career paths for job seekers and ideal
employees for organizations.
Pymetrics is transforming the hiring process with new
technologies that assess specific characteristics of job applicants
through neuroscience games rather than the traditional
self-reported question-and-answer approach. It identifies promising
job candidates, expanding opportunities for job seekers and
connecting organizations with the most appropriate talent.
“Through Pymetrics, we can bring innovative talent acquisition
technologies to our clients and further support Mercer’s focus on
innovation. By investing in the company, Mercer can help influence
how big data and innovative predictive hiring technologies,
including gaming, can enhance the recruiting space,” said Barb
Marder, Senior Partner in Mercer’s Talent business and Team Leader
in Mercer’s Innovation Hub.
“We are very pleased to collaborate with Mercer in shaping the
future direction of Pymetrics. We believe the leadership and
expertise they bring from an HR perspective will be extremely
valuable to advancing the application of big data and neuroscience
in the recruiting process,” said Frida Polli, Co-founder and CEO of
Pymetrics.
