Astute Technical's Journey to GDPR Compliance and Enhanced Engagement with Herefish by Bullhorn
Astute Technical, a UK-based recruiting firm, was grappling with two significant challenges. The first was the need to become GDPR compliant following the implementation of the General Data Protection Regulation in May 2018. This legislation, aimed at protecting the privacy of EU citizens' personal data, hit the recruiting industry particularly hard. Astute had to clean up and secure its data quickly to avoid compliance issues and potential litigation. The second challenge was a lack of structured engagement with candidates and customers. The company noticed that many of its clients and candidates were slipping through the net, with some not having been contacted for a long time. Astute wanted a system or process that ensured every client and candidate was engaged with the organization, and that their Applicant Tracking System (ATS) was full of legitimate, quality jobseekers, and their business systems full of loyal, happy clients.

Streamlining Staffing Operations: A Case Study on Contemporary Personnel Staffing, Inc.
Contemporary Personnel Staffing, Inc. (CPS), a leading staffing and recruitment firm, was grappling with time-consuming manual back office processes. In 2012, despite recent success, CPS was still manually sending invoices to 25 different companies, a process that involved printing each invoice, checking lists for each company, scanning documents, and emailing a copy of the invoice to each client. Their existing software, AST, could not be updated, forcing them to continuously patch the system to maintain their Front Office, Back Office, and Payroll. This resulted in lengthy app and load times, leading to data integrity issues as most of the team would not add notes. Additionally, CPS wanted to keep payroll internal, but their QuickBooks application could not handle the growing number of temporary placements. With approximately 1,000 W2s processed per year, their growth potential was seriously hampered by the outdated technology.

Cooptalis Enhances International Recruitment Efficiency with Bullhorn ATS & CRM
Cooptalis, an international mobility operator, was facing challenges with their existing recruitment tool. The tool was not built to handle the volume of work they had and couldn't meet the company's needs. It was difficult to conduct targeted and precise searches, quickly find candidates in the database, and visualize the progress of their searches. The tool also lacked an API interface, preventing Cooptalis from adding or extracting data. Moreover, it was not a SaaS tool, requiring installation on personal workstations and server and database maintenance, making it cumbersome to administer. The financial model was for lifetime service licenses and included server maintenance costs, with little pricing flexibility. Cooptalis needed a cloud tool; a customizable online ATS that could integrate with other applications.

Scaling Onboarding Technology for Business Growth: A Case Study on Execusource
Execusource, a leading staffing and consulting firm, was facing challenges with their onboarding process due to rapid business growth and market changes. They had been using Bullhorn Onboarding, which had been successful for their team, candidates, and clients. However, the lack of mobile optimization and increased complexity of the onboarding process due to the firm's growth led to decreased candidate engagement and increased manual errors. The Execusource team found themselves spending an estimated 65-80% of their week on onboarding tasks, including E-Verify, insurance, and document revision. As the firm expanded its portfolio and opened up locations across the country, the onboarding workload became unsustainable. The existing challenges were amplified, and Execusource needed an onboarding solution that could scale with their business.

LandrumHR's Transformation: Achieving a Single Source of Truth with Bullhorn One
LandrumHR, a full-service Human Capital firm, was struggling with an outdated and inflexible system that was hindering their growth and productivity. The system lacked an open API infrastructure, preventing seamless integration with third-party solutions. This lack of flexibility was stunting innovation and preventing LandrumHR from differentiating themselves in the market. Additionally, the system did not provide visibility into key performance indicators (KPIs), leaving the recruiting and sales teams in the dark about their data and work priorities. This lack of visibility resulted in recruiters spending more time searching for data than interacting with candidates. The system was also not intuitive, making it difficult to train new hires and slowing down the company's growth. Overall, the system required too much manual intervention, slowing down workflows and preventing LandrumHR from achieving a single source of truth for their data.

The nature of the staffing business requires strong relationships with clients and candidates, necessitating consistent communication. However, the decentralized approach led to a lack of accountability, with customer engagement and content creation often being pushed to the bottom of the account manager’s to-do list. This resulted in missed opportunities with customers and potential customers.

Strategic Staffing Solutions Enhances Candidate Sourcing with Resume-Library and Bullhorn Integration
Strategic Staffing Solutions (S3), a global staffing firm, was facing a significant challenge in managing its candidate sourcing process. The team was using Resume-Library for sourcing candidates and Bullhorn as its Applicant Tracking System (ATS). However, the lack of integration between the two platforms was causing inefficiencies. The team had to log into Resume-Library daily to search the active resume database, find suitable candidates, download their resumes, and then manually upload them to their Bullhorn account. This process was not only time-consuming but also impractical as it involved navigating back and forth between the two platforms. The challenge was further compounded by the fact that S3 recruits across multiple industries in various locations across the U.S., making the extensive database of Resume-Library crucial for their hiring needs.

Automating Engagement for Reliable Candidate Sourcing: A Case Study on Conexus and Herefish
The Conexus Group, a London-based conglomerate of five companies operating in the consulting, staffing, and training space, faced a significant challenge in managing their candidate database. The database, built over a decade and a half, was filled with dormant, incomplete, or outdated entries. This made it difficult for recruiters to efficiently make placements. Candidates were typically contacted once or twice after registration, but if they weren't relevant at the time, communication would generally cease within six to twelve months. With thousands of candidates in the system, manually re-engaging was not a feasible solution. The group lacked the capacity and technology to revive these dormant relationships.

Bullhorn Automation and Analytics: A Game Changer for j. David Group
Founded in 2011, the j. David Group, a go-to-market search firm for rapidly scaling software companies, experienced massive internal growth in 2021, expanding from a team of two to eleven. This growth brought challenges, including the need to reduce manual work, manage candidate information, and improve reporting functionality. The account managers were juggling multiple tasks, including placing candidates, managing client relationships, and keeping up with candidate communications. The recruiters were storing candidate resumes on their individual computers, lacking a single source of truth for their candidate information. When candidates were not placed, there was no easy way to get their information back to a central database. The team was using Trello to track a candidate’s interview status, which was cumbersome and lacked detailed reporting capabilities. They needed a solution that would automate their manual processes, increase visibility across all candidate information, and provide stronger reporting.

Increasing Speed and Decreasing Costs: The Jacobson Group's Journey with VMS Sync
The Jacobson Group, a leading provider of talent to the insurance industry, had traditionally preferred working with high-touch, highly-consultative clients, and Vendor Management System (VMS) relationships did not allow for this. Prior to 2019, the company actively avoided VMS-style business and did not seek new opportunities in this area. However, they noticed a shift in the industry, with organizations as small as $5 million in spend outsourcing the management of their contingent labor program or centralizing the procurement of their contingent labor through in-house Managed Service Providers (MSPs). As MSP and VMS solutions began to increase rapidly in their space, The Jacobson Group realized they were missing out on potential revenue.

Transitioning to a Retained Recruiting Model: A Case Study of IDEX Consulting and Bullhorn
IDEX Consulting, a recruitment and business growth consultancy, was looking to transition from a contingent recruiting model to a more innovative version of the retained recruiting model. The company believed that a retained model would allow them to provide a more tailored service to their clients by connecting them with a shorter list of nurtured, high-quality candidates. However, they faced resistance from clients who were accustomed to the traditional payment model where recruiters are paid only after a job is filled. Additionally, IDEX Consulting needed to convince their own consultants about the benefits of the retained model. They needed data to prove that the new model could save their consultants time, increase billings, and have a positive impact on their clients’ businesses.
