San Mateo, CA (HRMarketer/PRWeb) February 16, 2005 -- JobFlash, the award winning pioneer of Voice Recruiting, today announced the successful implementation of their recruiting automation solution at Hornblower Cruises and Events.
In early 2003 management and the Hornblower Human Resources team decided they needed to automate the recruiting of their hourly employees to properly staff their fleet of 30 luxury cruise ships. Their manual process was simply not capable of recruiting, processing and hiring the quantity of qualified employees required.
JobFlash has reduced our HR staff workload by 50%,"says Catherine Finn, Corporate Director of HR for Hornblower Cruises. We look for unique people with strong customer service and marine skills willing to work in the evenings and on weekends. Many candidates have full-time jobs during the day making it hard for them to contact us. The JobFlash solution allows applicants to apply anytime 24/7/365 and still go through our initial screening. We also look for maritime personnel with specific USCG licenses. With the job specific questions, we can find out if they have the minimum license requirements prior to a lengthy interview."
Stephen Kuypers, General Manager of Hornblower Cruises comments, Where was this system when I was trying to hire large quantities of staff for a previous employer?" JobFlash allows Hornblower managers to continually see fresh candidates by utilizing the advanced search feature. They have been able to specify the position criteria and obtain a perfect match.
The key results Hornblower Cruises has obtained from using Voice Recruiting solution from JobFlash are:
• Cut time to hire by qualifying and scheduling candidates within 48 hours.
• Better qualified, more customer focused, and service driven candidates.
• Cut total cost per hire by cutting sourcing, screening, application management and candidate support costs.
• Managers have more control over recruiting process while spending lesser time.
• Doubled productivity for the HR team.
JobFlash was launched in two weeks and requires no hardware or software to be purchased. In addition, JobFlash is very easy to use hence enabling managers to use it without extensive training.
