Nestor’s Talent and Opportunity Marketplace: Launched at Unleash America 2023

Nestor, the People Intelligence Platform that helps organizations unlock the power of skills to drive workforce agility, higher performance, and continuous growth, proudly announced the launch of its Talent & Opportunity Marketplace, at Unleash America 2023, The International Festival of HR. Nestor was one of the sponsors of Unleash America, where it showcased its platform in front of a global audience of over 2000 HR Leaders on April 26-27 in Las Vegas.

Through this major platform expansion, Nestor takes one step further in advancing its vision: a world of work where each employee has the right opportunity at the right time to continually develop and improve the skills that will help them succeed.

By bringing together employees’ existing skills and future goals with all development opportunities available through a Talent and Opportunity Marketplace, Nestor will help organizations to overcome their mobility challenges and create a more agile and responsive workforce.

In the face of the economic headwinds of the current period, organizations need to reevaluate their talent strategies to respond quickly to market shifts and changing business needs and be more cost-effective. The prospect of an economic slowdown coupled with a very tight talent market and skills shortages requires new intelligent workforce planning models.

Nestor equips HR leaders and managers with the tools they need to allow talent to migrate fluidly within the organization while finding and growing the right skill sets from within.

This internal marketplace represents a one-stop place where all growth opportunities, in all their forms — gigs, mentoring, learning, open roles, projects, and career journeys — are fully transparent, available, and easily accessible to all people. This way, employees can explore new career paths that align with their skills and aspirations, express interest in new roles, and be matched with the best-fit growth opportunities to unleash their limitless potential.

“By integrating an internal Talent Marketplace with the other features of our platform, we aim to capitalize at the maximum on the existing skills of the employees, and seamlessly connect them with limitless opportunities to enhance their unique potential. In a nutshell, it’s about ensuring the right people with the right skills are in the right place to perform at their best. This process is hugely beneficial for the growth of employees and helps businesses remain competitive and flexible, which is more relevant than ever in today’s world of work.”, said Bogdan Apostol, CEO and co-founder of Nestor.

This internal talent and opportunity marketplace will also play an important role in reducing attrition and increasing employee engagement by encouraging vertical or lateral moves aligned with people’s aspirations and business objectives. Nestor’s talent marketplace is seamlessly integrated with its performance, engagement, and career development modules through a single connection point: skills. It also connects people’s participation in various projects and development opportunities with operational goals. This way, Nestor enables a skills-based employee profile, dynamically enriched with new capabilities acquired in the process.

As the need to build future-fit skills and navigate the current economic headwind is increasing, a talent and opportunities marketplace will be a critical feature to unlock agility, strategic reallocation of resources, and limitless opportunities for growth. Nestor’s People Intelligence Platform will help shape effective talent strategies aligned with business priorities and pinpoint how to best support employee development in the flow of work.

Unleash participants were able to meet the Nestor team during the conference, where Nestor was present with a booth in the expo area. Unleash America is the number 1 conference for HR Leaders around the globe, and in 2023, it took place on April 26-27 in Las Vegas.
