Applicant Tracking System

So, I just met with a client who is now using CareerScribe in three distinct ways.

Numero Uno | Candidate Evaluation 
Despite the current economic conditions, this company is hiring. Lots. There method prior to CareerScribe was quite conventional. Lots of resumes. Hours of phone interviews, most ending without enthusiasm. They are now working alongside their current applicant tracking system to invite all promising candidates to connect with their open positions via CareerScribe. Now they've got 5X the information on all interested candidates and plan to review the candidates' professional portfolios as a team ... before the synchronous phone call. 

Numero Dos | Intern Assessment
This organization is actively employing interns over the summer and intentionally giving them a comprehensive, working tour of the organization. Their asking all of the interns participating in this program to build their profiles on CareerScribe. This will give hiring managers throughout the company a deep sense of the interns' accomplishments and where they may fit best in the company in the long run.

Numero Tres | Internal Performance
One group within the organization is asking all of their individual contributors to track their accomplishments on a week by week basis in CareerScribe. At the end of the year, the manager will have all of the detail and insight necessary on each individual.Performance reviews and merit increase conversations will be very informed.

Wow. Pretty Cool.
