beesite Recruiting: The reliable application management system
The Union Investment Group is one of Germany’s largest asset managers for private and institutional investors. Union Investment employs around 2,500 people at various locations and is an attractive employer in the financial sector. Regular awards from external, independent juries document the excellent development and career prospects as well as modern personnel management. In the recruitment process, this is reflected in the close support provided to candidates and the prompt processing of around 6,000 – 10,000 applications per year.
Task:
The previous applicant management system had reached its limits with its functionalities and processes. An applicant management system was therefore needed to make HR management more efficient and to enable greater automation and optimisation of processes. Other project objectives were to improve service quality and the satisfaction of all those involved in the process, as well as to increase the company’s attractiveness as an employer through a modern applicant management system. It was also important to connect the recruiting system to the internal SAP system and external job boards.
Solution:
Union Investment has been using the beesite Recruiting Edition since 2008, now in its third generation since 2014 and with a mobile job board since 2015. The software is used for online recruiting and complete applicant management, including CV parsing (automatic import of CVs) in the application’s back office. The applicant management system is designed so that applicants can apply online with or without registration.
The beesite Recruiting Edition is embedded in Union Investment’s SAP system landscape and enables highly integrated application management via import and export interfaces:
- Starting with the import of SAP position data into beesite,
- publishing job adverts in the company’s own layout on its own mobile job board, on the intranet and on external job boards,
- the management and processing of all candidates from the application
to recruitment,
- with the involvement of all relevant process participants,
- through to export to other company systems.
