A well-known US staffing agency specializing in IT, administrative, and non-technical hiring manages extensive documentation across multiple regions. The firm associates with nationwide mid-market and enterprise clients and runs massive recruitment drives that usually onboard dozens of candidates within tight deadlines.
To stay competitive, the agency required a technology-based solution that could reduce onboarding time from days to hours, while ensuring accurate documentation, faster approvals, and scalable workflows.
Mostly, staffing agencies rely on printing, scanning, emailing, and manual follow-ups to onboard new candidates using a traditional method.
As the industry scales up, staffing teams start facing various challenges, such as:
Manually, staffing firms spend 3 business days to onboard a candidate, which results in delayed placements and client pressure on recruiters.
Hiring teams with manual follow-ups for missing signatures on offer letters, NDAs, I-9s, W-4s, and candidates' confidential contracts cause bottlenecks.
Incomplete and outdated document templates refer to multiple changes, errors, and slow placements.
Due to the unstructured storage of documents, it is challenging to track candidates' hiring details and meet compliance standards.
No detailed document status tracking and audit trails are possible manually. Hence, it causes an inefficient and unstructured process.
A slow paper-based onboarding process impacts the placement speed and candidate satisfaction.
To modernize staffing workflows, the agency shifted its vision to upgrade to intelligent technology-based electronic document management software. This is where eSigns.io came into the picture.
After trying out various methods and platforms to streamline their onboarding process, they reached eSigns for modern staffing-ready workflows, an easy signing experience, and enterprise-grade security.
