Introduction
Staffing Fish, a recruitment agency operating in Wyoming, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas, specializes in the finance, tax, and accounts receivable/payable sectors. The agency was founded two years ago by Jasen, who, after starting his career in higher education, transitioned to recruitment and eventually launched his own agency. Throughout his career, Jasen has utilized various Applicant Tracking Systems (ATSs) in both the education and recruitment industries.
Challenges
Before implementing Manatal, Staffing Fish faced several challenges in managing their recruitment processes. The agency was initially using Excel to manage their candidate pool, which had grown to over 3,000 candidates in Phoenix alone. However, as the file size increased, it became increasingly inefficient to search for and find candidates.
Jasen had previously used ATSs, but these systems did not meet his needs for his own agency. He tried several ATSs before finally settling on Manatal, primarily due to its features, ease of use, and fast customer support.
In addition to the inefficiency of Excel, Jasen was also using OneNote to store candidate information. While he was satisfied with this solution, it did not centralize all other activities, making it difficult to have a global vision of all processes. Jasen wanted a system that would allow him to easily see where each job was at and if there were enough candidates in the pipeline.
Solution
Manatal emerged as the comprehensive solution to these challenges. Its user-friendly interface equipped Jasen with the means to seamlessly manage all recruitment processes in one consolidated platform, ensuring a holistic view of candidates and clients. The software also offered the convenience of storing pertinent notes, attachments, and other information as needed. The robust features of Manatal, coupled with its swift customer support, solidified its standing as the preferred choice over other Applicant Tracking Systems.
Conclusion
Implementing Manatal revolutionized the recruitment process at Staffing Fish. The agency was able to efficiently manage their large candidate pool and streamline their recruitment activities. The software provided a comprehensive overview of all processes, allowing Jasen to easily track the progress of each job and ensure a sufficient number of candidates in the pipeline.
In conclusion, Manatal has proven to be an invaluable tool for Staffing Fish, addressing their specific pain points and significantly improving their recruitment processes. The case of Staffing Fish demonstrates how Manatal's innovative software can transform the way recruitment agencies operate, providing a more efficient and effective solution for managing candidates and recruitment activities.
