Automating Recruitment with a Tailored System

A professional services company that hired over 100 staff each year was managing their recruitment process using spreadsheets. This approach required two full-time staff members just to handle the administrative side of interviews, onboarding, and training, creating a significant bottleneck. 📊

The company wanted to increase their applicant intake without expanding their admin workload or recruitment team. They needed a solution that could streamline their processes and allow them to focus on selecting the best candidates.

With these objectives in mind, they approached HiTide to develop a custom recruitment system that would automate and simplify their hiring process. 🚀

Recruitment involves numerous finicky processes, especially when it comes to ID collection and contract signing. The system needed to automate as much as possible while ensuring compliance with all necessary regulations. 📋

Additionally, the company required a solution that could handle a high volume of applicants efficiently, providing a seamless experience for both the HR team and the candidates.

The challenge was to create a system that not only addressed these needs but also integrated seamlessly with their existing processes. 🏗️

HiTide built a custom web application that included a careers website, a multi-step application form, and a backend applicant tracking system. This comprehensive solution automated job postings and streamlined the application process. 🔄

The applicant tracking system automatically followed up with candidates, focusing on making managing applicants as fast and clear as possible. This automation reduced the manual workload for the HR team and improved the overall efficiency of the recruitment process.

The platform was designed to enhance the candidate experience, providing a user-friendly interface and clear communication throughout the application process. 🌐

The custom recruitment system saved the team hundreds of hours every month, allowing them to scale up their recruitment numbers without increasing their admin workload. ⏱️

The enhanced careers page and application form, combined with automatic follow-ups, increased the quality and volume of applicants completing the process. The system provided the company with a competitive edge in attracting top talent. 🌟

We are proud to have been part of this journey and look forward to supporting the company's future growth and success. 🚀
