COLUMBIA, MD, February 8, 2016–Berkshire Associates Inc., a leading human resources consulting and technology firm, releases a case study examining how Admiral Beverage Corporation (Admiral) went from using paper-based applications to an automated applicant tracking software–and how it saved the company time, money, and productivity.
Admiral, a leading bottling corporative with approximately 2,000 employees and 400 new hires per year, was in desperate need of a better way to manage its applicant processes. With such a heavy volume of applicants, the time spent by managers tracking every application was difficult and time-consuming.
The company decided to implement Berkshire Associates’ web-based applicant tracking system, BALANCEtrak, which takes the logistical work associated with recruiting, tracking, and hiring, and moves it from ink-and-paper to a digital application. The platform streamlines the process and allows staff to be more productive.
According to Admiral’s Senior Human Resource Manager, Jeff Clark, “As a direct result of BALANCEtrak’s automatic job posting features, Admiral receives 20 percent more applicants. Additionally, our jobs are filled faster–where it used to take a month or more to find the right candidate, now that process lasts only 10 to 15 days.” Clark is also confident his company has been able to attract a higher-caliber candidate, “By using this ATS, we are thinning the herd of applicants to only the select few who fit the requirements.”
