Overall Satisfaction

PeopleAdmin is being used by my organization to differentiate applications, postings and illustrate candidate work flows. Specifically for UNC Chapel Hill, it helps us to hire for Temporary Staff, Faculty and Non-Faculty positions. Yes, this system is being used across the entire organization and is very easy to use. The business problem that PeopleAdmin addresses is that it prevents use from having to submit a lot of hard copy paperwork, it provides adequate tracking and gives updates and data on positing. For example, I originally came from a local university that required the submission of hard copies and it feels great to work with a university that embraces technology for the sake of efficiency.
  • When posting a position, you are able to list a detail description and include supplemental questions. The supplemental questions can be extremely helpful when you have a large applicant pool. Its helps you to weave through the applicants who are not qualified.
  • As applicants are applying for various positions, you can make it mandatory for the applicant to post a resume/ curriculum vitae and/ or a cover letter. These items can give more details about the applicant.
  • After you have posted the positions and selected candidates for interviews, PeopleAdmin allows you to provide feedback on every applicant to outline who and who were not interviewed and why they were not selected as the final candidate.
  • During the final step of selecting the final candidate, you are able to give a justification for the candidate. Also, you have to include the salaries and positions for other employees who are in the same type position. This helps to ensure impartiality regarding salary.
  • Sometimes the information can be redundant. For example, after you have gone through the applicant pool and labeled who's not selected, it should automatically start the hiring proposal for the final candidate.
  • A positive impact would be the increase of customer service. Our department can complete postings and hiring within a timely fashion.
  • I honestly can not see a negative impact for People Admin unless you have employees who do not want change and enjoy pushing paper.
I believe PeopleAdmin is a well designed system and can help any organization.
We have courses that are helpful to new users and also handouts. After you use PeopleAdmin a few times, it becomes as easy a 1-2-3 or brushing your teeth.
