A common interest in running recruiting like a business.
TBG and Newton Software share a common philosophical approach to corporate recruitment projects agreeing that success is achieved through hard work, consistency and the real-time reporting of key recruitment performance metrics.

One of the qualities that we’re most proud of is Newton’s ability to clear the ‘fog of war’ that often envelopes corporate recruiting programs. At the end of the day, the most important benefit that applicant tracking software can provide is visibility. Recruiting is a ‘busy’ business process that creates a massive amount of information. Organizing and managing this information into easy to access, easy to read dashboards is paramount.
We’ve designed Newton’s home page to be ‘air traffic control’ for corporate hiring. See all of the jobs that are important to you at a glance and all of your applicants in the pipelines for those jobs organized by what stage of the process they are in. Newton’s home page creates an automatic staffing report just by logging in and doesn’t require any clicking around. Now, turn on Newton’s enhanced interview tracking feature and get detailed, real-time visibility into each candidates’ interview stage like 1st phone screens, 2nd interviews and even rescheduled interviews automatically. You’ll track the number of phone screens, the number interviews and even reschedules for each candidate right from your home page.
Using Newton’s enhanced interview tracking feature will allow your recruiting team to gather more meaningful and powerful recruiting metrics with very little impact on your hiring managers. Coupled with Newton’s state of the art custom reporting engine, Newton’s interview tracking capabilities empower organizations to continuously improve recruiting efficiency and overall effectiveness.

Newton has made a leap into the European recruiting market by signing Prime RPO, a UK-based recruitment process outsourcing company. Prime RPO picked Newton based on our software’s flexible nature that was easily adaptable to the needs of a UK recruitment outsourcer.
Charlotte Murdoch, Prime RPO’s head of product delivery, spoke openly about why they picked Newton in a recent article on Recruiter UK: “Initially I was sceptical that a US provider would fully understand – and be able to deliver on – what we needed in the UK and globally thereafter,” she said. “But it was refreshing to get guidance from an ex-RPO recruiter who was able to translate the software jargon and what it meant in real terms for our customers and/or users.”
We look forward to continue to gain global market share by showing our international customers the features that have made Newton so successful in the US. These features concentrate on solving fundamental problems for RPOs like applicant experience, hiring manager experience, and user adoption.
Newton’s RPO Software and customer, Buller Group, are featured on popular UK-based Recruiter.
US-based software developer Newton has launched applicant tracking software designed for recruitment process outsourcers (RPO).
Joel Passen, co-founder of Newton and who ran an RPO company handling some 30 Silicon Valley clients for several years, told Recruiter that until now many RPOs hadn’t been leveraging the benefits of technology because they’d tended to use outdated legacy or homegrown systems.
“RPOs manage a multitude of recruiters, thousands of jobs and thousands of hiring managers. This has been designed from the trenches as we know the challenges they face,” he said. Passen believes that the software’s built-in analytics and dashboards will help RPOs sell themselves to prospective clients because of the transparency it brings. “This is a tangible platform that demonstrates accountability and offers clients high visibility into processes.”
Newton RPO is similar to the company’s software-as-a-service product aimed at employers but has a different database structure and additional features which are tailored to external recruiting practices.
Available worldwide, one of the early US users is Virginian-based The Buller Group where managing partner Rob Buller describes it as “the epiphany” software in the RPO world. He told Recruiter that before Newton, applicant tracking systems were just about talent acquisition but Newton adds another layer and provides easy access to key metrics such as time-to-fill, cost-per-hire or submission-to-hire. “It allows businesses to run talent acquisition as a business [process] with real-time, comprehensive and accurate statistics,” he said. “How can you run a people business when you don’t know how the business of hiring people is working?”
