Leading enterprise hiring platform recognized for ability to serve global organizations, AI innovation and strong customer partnerships in the 2025 Fosway 9-Grid™ for Talent Acquisition
HOLMDEL, N.J., July 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- iCIMS, a leading talent acquisition software company trusted by the world's best brands, proudly announces it has been named a Strategic Leader in the 2025 Fosway 9-Grid™ for Talent Acquisition for the fourth consecutive year. The Strategic Leader position reflects iCIMS' market leadership in the European market, customer satisfaction and business impact.
Recognition by the Fosway Group, Europe's #1 HR industry analyst firm, validates iCIMS' commitment to delivering rich AI capabilities and solving the complex hiring needs of multinational enterprises with greater efficiency. iCIMS remains the only hiring platform consistently rated a leader by leading analyst firms including Fosway Group, IDC, The Hackett Group, Nucleus Research and Sapient Insights Group.
Based on vendor assessments and customer feedback, the Fosway Group emphasized several key strengths of iCIMS, including:
- Strong track record of serving large organizations with complex hiring processes.
- AI innovation that is above market average and embedded across the entire hiring journey.
- Positive customer sentiment and value delivered to customers that goes beyond industry knowledge and product expertise.
- Steady pace of growth and investments in R&D and product sophistication that is significantly above the market average.
- Extensive partner ecosystem that provides global organizations with local fit and flexibility.
Workforce dynamics are continuing to shift and competition for talent is intensifying, prompting CHROs to double down on talent acquisition as a business-critical priority. According to new iCIMS research, 85% of CHROs say TA technology is more important today than it was two years ago, and 75% plan to increase their investment in 2025. As they evaluate solutions that can deliver both immediate impact and long-term scalability, HR leaders navigate a crowded vendor landscape by turning to trusted sources like the Fosway 9-Grid™ to evaluate which platforms can deliver long-term value, scalability and innovation.
"Talent acquisition is continuing to evolve across EMEA, and organisations are seeking partners who not only understand the complexity of the hiring landscape but also lead with innovation, industry insight and business value," said Matt Sharp, SVP & GTM EMEA, iCIMS. "Our continued recognition as a Strategic Leader in the Fosway 9-Grid™ reflects our unwavering commitment to helping enterprise employers around the world build agile, future-ready workforces by investing in technology that scales with their ambitions."
"As AI rewrites TA solution landscape, iCIMS continues to evolve its product offering to reflect these changes," said Sven Elbert, Head of Analyst Services, Fosway Group. "By embedding advanced AI capabilities across the entire talent acquisition lifecycle, iCIMS is enabling more intelligent, personalized and efficient interactions throughout the hiring journey. Once again, iCIMS has been named Strategic Leader this year."
iCIMS continues to invest in its product roadmap, particularly in responsible AI innovation, to create better hiring experiences for its community of global, enterprise customers and their candidates. Earlier this month, iCIMS launched its Summer Release, led by a new generation of customer-inspired iCIMS AI capabilities for smarter sourcing and recruiting. iCIMS also recently announced the upcoming launch of its new fleet of agents, purpose-built to accelerate the entire recruiting lifecycle.
