Our Methodology
Leveraging technology is the only way we can keep up with the pace!
If you remove the technology, we're out of business! The primary tools we use are described below.
The central technology that drives our business is our Applicant Tracking System (ATS). The 3 primary databases (Clients, Jobs, and Candidates) are tied to common activities (Notes, Emails, Calls, Texts) and tie neatly to our recruiter workflow. All of these connections allow us to view progress from two key perspectives - Job & Candidate. From the job perspective, we see all candidates and what stage they're in - Short List, Submitted, Initial Interview, Final Interview, Offer Extended, Placement. From the candidate perspective we can easily see every note, email call, and text conversation as well as their position in the recruiting stages.
If candidates share their resumes but aren't a fit for our current positions, we profile them with keywords and goals to match up with future jobs.
The other technologies that are critical to our success are characterized below.
- VOIP Technology - Integrates with our ATS to support voice calls and texts.
- Microsoft Outlook - Integrates with our ATS to support email, calendar events, and the intake of candidates.
- Microsoft Teams - Allows us to coordinate virtual interviews between clients and candidates.
- LinkedIn - Integrates with our ATS to support messaging and the intake of potential candidates. Also provides us a vehicle to post jobs during our searches.
The best news!
The third-party platforms we use are continually improving their offerings. As they improve, so do we! Every new short cut or automation makes us faster and more thorough. That translates to quicker searches and candidate engagement and shortens the time it takes to get them in front of you!
