How Justin from MATRIX Built a Unique Tech Stack to Power His Business
While staffing firms across the globe are forced to re-examine the way they do business in light of the recent global events, we understand that you still have a commitment to your clients and candidates to be as effective as possible. With that in mind, here is a spotlight from our Global Changemakers series, highlighting those who have successfully navigated a technology change within their business.
When Justin first joined MATRIX, they were using a few different systems that they tried to fit together, making it difficult for both current employees and new team members to be set up for success. They began looking for a solution that would truly help their employees and provide the data the team needed to plan appropriately and see what was going on within the business.
Time to Make a Change
From candidate ownership to documentation to recruiter expectations, lack of process allowed some employees to be highly successful but didn’t maximize the potential output that an organization has. With 13 different offices, it was crucial to get each office on the same process to create consistency across the organization.
Roadblocks to Progress
The main challenge that MATRIX faced when navigating the change to Bullhorn was adoption across the organization – getting employees to use the technology most effectively, which would lead to better results on the recruiter level and higher performance for the company overall.
For example, documenting notes correctly within Bullhorn was crucial so that the team could get a true representation of what was actually happening within the business, but many recruiters weren’t used to documenting all of their information in one system.
Reaping the Benefits
Since making a change towards digital transformation, the MATRIX team has been able to improve placement rates and adopt a more agile approach to their business now that the team is better connected to each other with increased visibility into the entire recruitment process.
But most importantly, the team is better set up for success and is already seeing the results of delivering a top-notch candidate and client experience: MATRIX was awarded the Best of Staffing Diamond Award for Client and Candidate Satisfaction from ClearlyRated in 2020.
