Award-Winning Digital Production Company, Animal Logic, Chooses SuccessFactors Recruitment Management

SYDNEY, March 8 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Today, SuccessFactors, Inc. (Nasdaq: SFSF) announced that Animal Logic, one of the world's most highly respected digital production companies, has deployed SuccessFactors Recruitment Management module from its Business Execution (BizX) Suite to deliver award-winning talent.

Animal Logic has quickly earned a reputation as one of the world's leading design, visual effects and animation companies. With studios in Sydney and Los Angeles, Animal Logic continues to produce award-winning work for a diverse, international clientele. Early success producing animation and VFX for television commercials provided a platform for a successful expansion into feature film work including Babe, The Matrix, Moulin Rouge, Hero, 300 and the Academy Award-winning Happy Feet. The company is currently in production on the animated adventure feature film Legend of the Guardians, directed by Zack Snyder. The film, based on the popular children's book series, is being produced by Animal Logic and is set for international release this year.

With this substantial growth, Animal Logic needed a flexible process and solution that would search across their global candidate pool when resourcing productions and also simplify the screening process. With the majority of their applicants located abroad, many of which are repeat candidates, Animal Logic will use SuccessFactors Recruiting Management, Performance Management and Goal Management to bring together external data and internal success metrics to hire the right people, for the right production and accelerate the company's growth.

"With SuccessFactors, we are taking a long-term strategic approach to recruiting and forecasting our staffing needs based on overall business goals and focused on improving quality of hire," said Zoe Diamond, Head of Human Resources, Animal Logic. "SuccessFactors Recruiting Management is a major leap forward and empowers us to quickly source the right talent and ensure continued organizational growth and high performance."

"We are honored to partner with Animal Logic to further the success of its workforce and the company's accomplishments in the digital production industry," said Tim Holloway, SuccessFactors' Country Manager, Australia and New Zealand. "In these continually competitive times, organisations are clearly focusing on hiring the right people, at the right time, to deliver the award-winning performances that Animal Logic is globally recognised in achieving."

SuccessFactors Recruiting Management is the first and only application that brings together external data and internal success metrics to enable companies to hire the right people, at the right time, for the right jobs, and accelerate top-line and bottom-line growth. BizX Recruiting Management is a core component of the SuccessFactors BizX Software Suite. It is purpose-built to drive new levels of efficiency, impact and measurable return on investment in a company's overall recruiting strategy.
