Find the perfect software for your digital recruitment

Today, one of the most important HR issue is the conversion to a digital recruitment process. In 2019, trends show that the digitization of hiring processes is a major challenge for businesses’ strategies: how to find the best talent despite the profusion of profiles available online? How to find people fitting into your employee's team? How to engage them to stay?

Whether you are a hiring manager in an SME, in a large team or in a recruitment agency, discover how recruitment technologies can help you find the rare gem in your sector and compare high-performance tools to make your way in a competitive job market.

A CV library is a database containing CVs of all the applicants for a role in an organization through different websites and platforms. Each one has a personal file containing the following information:

• name
• contact details
• level of education
• type of training
• sphere of past professional experiences, positions held, duration of past experiences
• type of role sought
• type of job contract desired
• mobility constraints
• privileged sector of activity, etc.

👉 The CV library is a "CV bank", or pool of candidates, from which to pick the most relevant profiles when a company has a vacancy.

Before you can manage resumes, you must be able to collect them and find the ones who will be relevant to you from the infinite number of profiles available online.

Multiposting, or multicasting, is a way to multiply the publication of job offers with a minimum of effort. You just need to create the ad in your recruiting service, and the tool will share it itself on many online platforms:

• job boards,
• social networks,
• university and school networks for young graduates,
• specialized sites, etc.

💡 This way you improve the sourcing without wasting time in copying and pasting several times the same ad. Plus, all the applications are centralized in just one tool: you do not need to check several websites to sort out CVs.

Whether your profile database is generalist or specific (by sector of activity, by type of profile, etc.), multi-criteria search via search engine is a valuable tool for searching applicants. To find the ideal profile, you can search on many criteria:

• level of education
• level of professional experience
• industry
• number and duration of professional experiences
• geographical area
• spoken languages, etc.

✅ You immediately target relevant profiles and save a lot of time.

Here are our best practices on information management to better exploit your HR databases (time saving, relevance of profiles, required skills, adequacy with the company's values, etc.).

• Split the applications received into three categories: profiles matching the job, profiles are competent but not relevant to your search, and profiles who do not meet your business’ needs.
• Keep the applications from the second group, i.e. profiles who do not meet the requirements or previous experiences required of a position at a given time, but whose skills could be useful to your business in the future.
• Immediately discard unsuccessful profiles who do not match your company's project or values. This will allow you to "clean" your CV library to keep only interesting profiles.
• Sort the profiles kept by type of role, field of expertise, status, level of experience, etc. You will find the profiles more easily when you will source again for talents.

The automation of your hiring process goes hand in hand with its simplification. Be careful, however: human must be at the heart of companies' interests.

Recruitment software is a tool to help you find the right person faster, but applicants expect to meet the people who make a business, not just an online interface.

Automation offers you a better time and application volume management through the development of an automated funnel of the hiring process. It makes it possible to respond to applicants quickly, but also to process applications qualitatively and to process each of them no matter how many resumes you have received. Finally, most of recruitment marketing tools allow to design an effective hiring campaign.

Another advantage: you benefit from a history for each profile in your recruitment process; you ensure yourself applications’ follow-up and can find all the information related to an application quickly.

• The diffusion of offers, thanks to multiposting: you can reach more potential applicants by multiplying the platforms for the diffusion of your offers (job boards like Indeed, or Monster, social networks like LinkedIn, your corporate website, specialized websites, etc.).
• Sorting CVs: quickly discard CVs which do not meet your expectations thanks to keywords you define upstream.
• Refusals: an applicant prefers a negative response to none at all. Thanks to a customizable email template, you can dismiss profiles you are not interested in without leaving them waiting. It also helps to create a positive employer brand among applicants showing positive values of your company culture.

Software services are available to structure your application management process. You save time and ensure the quality of the resumes you study while increasing the overall volume of applications received.

Using a CV management service is not only beneficial to recruiters and agencies; it is also beneficial to applicants. Offering a pleasant and positive experience also means attracting the best talents.

A recruitment tool helps you to do this through:

• personalized answers
• follow-up of the applicants
• better quality interviews
