In Hobsons’ recruiting department, filling the company’s offices around the world with talented, knowledgeable employees proved difficult in 2013. After years of relying on a paper-based recruiting system and a generic Applicant Tracking System (ATS), Hobsons Talent Acquisition Manager Amy Whitman knew the company’s recruiting department needed some assistance. With some aggressive growth goals set for the coming years, Whitman prepped the team to explore new options. After a Hobsons partner recommended Jobvite, Whitman tested the recruiting software against other talent acquisition tools and was immediately sold. The entire Hobsons team would not be able to meet our growth goals without an updated ATS tool. After experimenting with Jobvite, it was the system’s ease-of-use that I loved. We don’t have a large recruiting department, so I needed something that was efficient and functional, that hiring managers could utilize as well. Jobvite is simple, intuitive and cost-effective — I’m so thankful we have such an invaluable resource.

Today, powered by Jobvite’s reliable, easy-to-use ATS, Hobsons has adopted a much-needed element of technology for its recruiting program. Jobvite’s sophisticated recruiting solution has become the foundation supporting Hobsons’ successful growth strategy. Leveraging Custom Reporting & Hiring Data Amongst the top reasons for choosing Jobvite, Hobsons looked to the solution’s sophisticated reporting capabilities to help align resources and better allocate workflow. For a while, all reporting was done manually, which naturally took up much of the hiring managers’ time and energy. Particularly for the finance department, having reliable reports on hand around open positions, budgeting and salaries was key to streamlining the hiring process. With Jobvite, hiring managers and recruiters can create custom reports to keep finance in the loop. I customized all the reporting so that it filters directly to the finance department keeping them abreast of hiring activity. Now, they know each open requisition and salary, which hiring manager to contact for specific roles, and what to budget for. Finance can even see if a requisition is placed on hold, which helps the department better allocate budget and stay updated on any changes in hiring activity. To me, that’s an even bigger win.
