Improving the Recruiting Process Using the Microsoft Office System

Improving the Recruiting Process Using the Microsoft Office System

Hiring the right people is a strategic necessity for every company. As a result, many companies have implemented software to help automate the recruiting process. Despite these efforts, recruiting often remains a disjointed, manual process because common tasks, such as scheduling interviews, must be performed outside of automated systems. A recruiting solution that integrates automated recruiting tools with the Microsoft Office System can help all participants in recruiting collaborate more effectively and improve hiring processes.

Situation

Although many large organizations have automated recruiting systems, such as applicant tracking systems, organizations often find that these tools do not fully meet the needs of the individuals involved in recruiting. Often, Microsoft Office tools such as Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Word, and Microsoft Excel are used by recruiters and hiring managers to supplement recruiting software. As a result, recruiters must manually switch between recruiting software and Microsoft Office to complete steps in the recruiting process. The following figure shows a typical recruiting process where switching between tools is a frequent occurrence.
