Oct 16 HRchitect WebMingle Featured Benesytes; Next Up is DataFrenzy

October 17, 2009

 

Our weekly WebMingle is designed to give you some insight into the puzzling world of HR technology, discuss news from around the world that we find interesting, talk about upcoming events in our industry, and provide insightful interviews with people of our industry – who they are, what they do and why you should care. The WebMingle has become the most popular live weekly Internet show in the HR technology industry!

So what is a WebMingle? It is a meeting over the web where we do some business, socialize and yes, we mingle over the web. Thus, a WebMingle.

The 50-minute WebMingle on October 16th, the milestone 40th in our WebMingle series, featured Chuck Busse, President of Benesytes, a benefits communication provider. The HR Weasel also made another great appearance providing for some entertainment. Chuck has great insight and passion around online benefit communications, portals, and total reward statements. We touched on a number of issues related to that including: 

  • Insights from the recent HR Tech Conference in Chicago
  • Where “A Recruiting Edge” fits in the Human Capital Management spectrum
  • How employers currently communication important benefit information
  • What is involved in Benesystes creating a portal for their customers
  • Total Rewards Statements
  • Integrating with ATS and Onboarding systems
  • …and more

We also had another appearance in our studios from the HR Weasel, who has become a regular on our show. He noticed the fish on the Benesystes web site as part of their marketing campaign and wanted to talk about fishing. It was a great conversation and we also learned that he will be leaving for a  new job in a new building so we hope that he will call in on future shows.

About Benesytes

Benesytes has been in the benefit communication business since 1984.  Initially a retirement plan administrator, Benesytes has specialized in the online benefit communication business for the past 9 years.  Services include custom benefit portals, online enrollment and eligibility, and total reward statements.  “A Recruiting Edge”, the latest offering, fills a void of helping job candidates and hiring managers share consistent benefit information.

About Chuck Busse, President of Benesytes

Chuck Busse is a graduate of the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, with a degree in Economics. After a 10 year career as a VP in mortgage banking he and his wife Hunter left Richmond, VA and moved “back home” to Davidson, NC  in July 2007 where he partnered with Andy Beard and Benesytes.

If you missed this past week’s WebMingle, or any of our past WebMingles, please visit our web site or www.HRWebMingle.com. You will see a complete list of upcoming guests and will be able to listen to past shows.

Our next WebMingle will take place on October 23 with Keith Duarte, President of DataFrenzy, a job distribution and resume management company. We look forward to welcoming Keith to the HRchitect WebMingle next week.

We hope to have you join us!
