##NAME##
IFSM 300 Section 7384
#### ##, 2018In order to facilitate the hiring of 75 new employees in the next three months,
Chesapeake IT Consultants (CIC) needs to update the current hiring process. As it stands, the
current recruiting team is working at capacity, and not able to handle this increased volume in
such a short amount of time. In order to accommodate this immediate need, and future needs, a
new recruiting system needs to be put in place to keep up with company growth. The new hiring
system will need to work with CIC’s current IT structure so that it can be up to speed
immediately, and to keep costs down.
To continue CIC’s business strategy of providing extraordinary consulting services and
recommendations to its customers, a new hiring system will need to be implemented. The new
system will enable the current recruiting team and hiring manager to streamline the hiring
process, thus increasing the number of new hires, with minimal expense to CIC. Since CIC’s
software development staff is smaller, the new system will be a Software as a Service solution,
so it can be deployed quickly. The new streamlined system will include an electronic dashboard
that shows all open positions, along with a calendar showing scheduled interviews.
For CIC to increase its competitive advantage; there is a need for the company to find
qualified candidates quickly, and at a reasonable cost to our clients. The improved hiring process
will allow our recruiting team to screen the candidates more quickly, and pass the information on
to the hiring manager so interviews can be scheduled. With a streamlined, effective recruiting
system in place, CIC can have an advantage over the competition by providing the benefit of
quality candidates more quickly than our competitors (Amadeo, 2018).
