Dominos Pizza has launched a worldwide online recruitment platform.

It is hoped the system will quickly and cost-effectively attract, assess and hire the majority of the firm's hourly-based staff.

Domino's Pizza operates 8,726 owned and franchised outlets worldwide and the online recruitment system, provided by talent management solutions provider Taleo Corporation, will mean the company will now be able to use a single hiring system.

Joseph Abraham, vice president of compensation, benefits and shared services for Domino's Pizza, said: "We recently embarked on a progressive initiative to completely reorganise our hourly workforce recruiting strategy around the internet and were looking for an advanced recruiting solution to form the foundation. Recruiting for hourly workers requires unique knowledge, processes and practices that Taleo has acquired over the years."
