With the combination of those involved in recruitment and the increase in hiring it's important that there is access to simple, streamlined tools that allow collaborative recruitment on the go. That's why, with Eploy, as well as getting an award-winning Applicant Tracking System, you get a dedicated hiring manager portal that's easy to use. You can raise job requisitions, view and sort candidates, arrange interviews, manage communications and track every action - and more.
Having access to a Transport & Logistics Applicant Tracking System that is configurable to your business and processes will provide improved relationships and management across the entirety of the recruitment process.
As well as the obvious scarcity of candidates for the sector, there are several other challenges such as building a diverse and inclusive workforce, and advertised salaries being lower than the market average, which affects a large number of Transport and Logistics companies.
Understanding sourcing channel success will help to address challenges and where to focus efforts to get the right quantity and quality of candidates. We know from the report that those who regularly monitor and measure the effectiveness of their sourcing channels with an active metrics and analytics programme report greater quality of the candidates they attract.
