Oracle
(and Peoplesoft, Siebel, Hyperion, JD Edwards, and Agile)

No doubt, Oracle has been on a shopping spree in recent years spending billions of dollars on acquisitions. On top of that, this year, they will spend billions further developing their products. With Fusion Applications and Middleware, over 60 acquisitions of application and tool vendors over the last 7 years, and support for 22 major industry verticals and many more sub verticals the Oracle talent landscape has become a complex mosaic of micro talent pools. Each with a unique combination of industry, product, functional, and technical skills and abilities.

As a result, our prospective clients frequently tell us that, while they can be bombarded with Oracle resumes from a variety of sources, they still cannot find the talent with the right skill sets to meet their needs in a timely manner. This lack of timely access to Oracle talent causes them to delay initiatives or rely on expensive contract talent. What’s more, they tell us that their hiring managers are spending precious time sorting through preventable recruitment issues such as skill set mismatches, inadequate technical screen results, incompatible interpersonal skills, and company culture concerns only to find that the professionals or executives they are really looking for still are not in their candidate pool.

That's where iHs comes in.

At iHs, we understand that Information Technology organizations have a duty to ensure that their Oracle systems and initiatives align well with their organization’s overall business strategy and also achieve budget, operational, and service level objectives in ways that demonstrate the positive value of these investments. We also understand that having the right talent on board at the right time is critical to achieving these objectives. To this end, we continually invest in the development of our personal Oracle networks through targeted research and participation in industry events and communities in the Oracle space independent of our search engagements. As such, we maintain the industry’s leading, proprietary database of Oracle professionals AND their preferences. What’s more, because our Principals have held positions such as Partner-in-Charge and Senior Vice President responsible for the Oracle practices at global professional services firms and been responsible for leading the deployment and sustainment of Oracle themselves, we deeply understand the needs of both our clients and prospective candidates. As a result, iHs brings its clients not only an unmatched ability to quickly identify and attract the rare talent they really need but also, unlike other search firms working in the Oracle space, the expertise to properly evaluate it too.

The majority of our Oracle searches last year were conducted for repeat clients. Clients who frequently tell us that we are the one firm they work with that “gets it” and that the work we do for them is “dead on”.
