This year has now seen Verified Hiring, LLC reboot its applicant tracking and talent management campaign with a second patent and two waves of new cases. In February 2015, the NPE filed ten, including suits against ADP, CareerBuilder, IBM, and Oracle, and now in November, it has added cases against 17 more companies, including Ceridian HCM, Fast Workforce, HireMojo, Kronos, and Vivify Software.
