Recruiting a great team makes business growth so much easier. Unfortunately, sorting out good from bad job applicants can be extremely complicated, costly and time-consuming. With greater staff mobility and increased job applications due to the downturn, it is becoming even more difficult to find star employees.

There are hundreds of applicant tracking systems and recruitment software solutions out there but most fail to address the central problems of recruitment. Most recruitment software offer basic automation of the recruitment process but a 2008 Gartner study showed that most recruitment databases fail to address these key challenges:

  • Candidate quality
  • Candidate sourcing
  • Acceptance rates of top candidates

To address these challenges, we recommend applying the principles of Customer Relationship Management (CRM) to your recruitment and staffing processes. Recruitment CRM software give your recruiters and HR staff powerful new marketing, financial management, sales and candidate management capabilities. Recruitment CRM can help focus your team on building and nurturing relationships with top candidates.
Recruitment CRM will assist you with the key roles of recruitment management:

  • Organising - With a Recruitment CRM, all contracts, resumes, candidate contact details, notes, and communications across your organization will be securely and logically filed. With a quick search you can quickly locate essential information within these documents.
  • Monitoring - Recruitment CRM make it easy for you to access simple reports like KPIs as well as highly sophisticated business intelligence.
  • Controlling – Recruitment CRM allow you to recruit using the methods that work best for your industry. Your HR staff and recruiters will be guided through the whole recruitment process with a logical workflow.


Artificial Intelligence to Separate Good from Bad
To help you handle thousands of resumes and quickly identify the top quality candidates, some Recruitment CRM use artificial intelligence. Through artificial intelligence it is now possible for systems to read and interpret CVs for your consultants. This technology will pick up all relevant information about a candidate and parse it into your database for easy searching. As well as saving recruitment and HR professionals an average 45 minutes per job in data entry time, your database will be enriched with much more valuable information. The result is less job advertising costs and higher HR productivity.
