Empower, Engage and drive Efficiency with Jobtrain

Written by Clare Ryder | 12-Feb-2020 08:39:49

Empowering Hiring Managers, strengthening engagement with candidates and driving efficiency in your recruitment are all critical elements for every recruitment team. The latest release of the next generation Jobtrain talent acquisition platform, has made achieving these goals simple through a huge array of updated and new features.

Updated user interface, fresh new style and design

Our latest release offers a fresh take on the comprehensive functionality available in Jobtrain. From animated graphs, new colour palettes, improved and intuitive UI to your very own chatbot P.A., HOWard - it ticks every recruitment and HR team's box.

Entirely new and configurable insights homepage

Time to approve, monitoring your recruitment funnel, advert source, bottle neck reports and time to hire are all key sets of data to keep you on a path to success. That's why, when you log in to Jobtrain, your Insights dashboard provides an immediate snapshot of current recruitment activity and performance.

All new job creation feature including option to define posting and advertising dates

Sometimes you might want to release (and close) a job advert to different audiences at different times - for example your internal employees might have access to apply for a job for 2 weeks before making the job live to an external audience.  You can leave both live concurrently or automatically close an advert at a date chosen by you - there are no limits.

75 enhancements made throughout Jobtrain in response to client feedback

There is not a single area of Jobtrain that remains untouched - we've made a whole host of enhancements - some bigger than others but they will all make a huge difference to our clients. Simplified navigation of Jobtrain now results in far fewer clicks; more filter and search options throughout (candidates, jobs, application form templates, etc); an array of enhancements to calendar events and so much more. For our clients, we've included these changes in your Jobtrain knowledge hub. If you're not using Jobtrain yet, but you'd like to find out what it can do for you, then please get in touch.

Split screen shortlisting

Reading an application form online whilst at the same time trying to complete shortlisting on the same screen can be a bit of challenge - with Jobtrain we've made this super simple with split screen shortlisting - simple but hugely effective.

Streamlined view of candidate application form

The streamlined application form view in Jobtrain ensures quick and easy shortlisting of candidates.  All application form content is now on one page for easy review.  

Compare candidate applications, side by side

Stuck between deciding which candidates are more suitable for a job? In Jobtrain, you can now quickly compare two candidate application forms side by side to see how they compare.

New pipeline metrics on homepage, jobs and candidate listing pages

As part of your new Insights Dashboard, you will have a selection of useful key metrics immediately visible to all users on their homepage.  This snapshot displays key information plus useful links to drill through to further detail.

Automated Intelligence Platform

A helping hand throughout Jobtrain to help with all sorts of tasks - our AI platform is designed to transform your experience of Jobtrain in the following ways:

  • Guided on-screen walk-throughs to help new users quickly get up to speed with Jobtrain
  • Smart automation to help users complete tasks quickly and easily - great for those users who may not use Jobtrain on a daily basis 
  • Intelligent knowledge base that will answer questions on almost all aspects of Jobtrain

HOWard, your own P.A.

Our chatbot, 'HOWard', can automate tasks such as adding new users, change settings, set up interviews and even automate processes such as form filling!

Why 'HOWard'?  HOWard was born from our weekly client webinars - 'Help on Wednesdays' and they're collectively titled 'HOW webinars'. These webinars give our clients another opportunity to learn about new features or to make sure they are getting the most out of what they already have. HOWard is a way of making that help even more immediate.

‘Quick links’ to your most accessed pages

It does what it says on the tin - quick links ensures our clients can rapidly access the areas of Jobtrain they're using on a day-to-day basis all from the main navigation menu.
