By using PeopleAdmin, the applicants have a consistent portal for entering their materials, no one person is responsible for distributing the materials to the search committee and everything is tracked consistently.

PeopleAdmin - a good choice.
PeopleAdmin is being used as our Applicant Tracking system. The system is used organization wide with the exception of student hiring. Prior to PeopleAdmin our recruiting process was done via inbox and emailed forms which increased the time it took for us to make a posting and fill a position. Having PeopleAdmin has allowed up to start the approval process and finish the approval process in less time (sometimes a day) and post immediately.

PeopleAdmin is used by our entire organization as a recruitment tool to fill full-time and part-time jobs openings. We use PeopleAdmin to post positions, collect applications, screen applicants, and select the candidate to hire. A separate software is used to hire the applicant which is not affiliated.The levels of use and access vary throughout the organization depending on the position level and approval rights of each user.

PeopleAdmin will simplify your day!
We use PeopleAdmin to manage staff position descriptions and to post open positions and manage searches. This is used by the entire campus although actual access to the software is somewhat centralized. We moved to this from a VERY old paper-based system and it has provided a much more efficient way to store and access staff job descriptions. The applicant tracking side of the software has allowed much better tracking and reporting of our search processes.

PeopleAdmin Review
PeopleAdmin is being used by one department (Human Resources) to service every department in our organization. Our organization is made up of three sections that use the product, our University (all departments and colleges), our Research Corporation, and our Marshall Health (hospital affiliate employees). Our department posts all full-time and part-time benefit eligible positions on to our PeopleAdmin website. We require all interested applicants for any of the mentioned positions to apply through our PeopleAdmin website. No candidates may be considered without applying through it. PeopleAdmin addresses man business problems for our organization. Some of the most important issues it resolved for us were accurate record keeping of all recruitment and applications, it eliminated a lot of human error when it came to posting positions, closing positions, and reviewing applications, and also it has facilitated the application process for applicants allowing us to receive more applications.

PeopleAdmin 5.8 Objective Review
Score 4 out of 10
Vetted Review
Verified User
We, at one point, were using PeopleAdmin for Applicant Tracking, Position Management, and Performance Management. Due to budgetary constraints, we have been unable to upgrade to the latest version (7) of the PeopleAdmin system. We found that both Applicant Tracking and Position Management worked well for out needs however, we needed a more robust system for Performance Management so we dropped that module a few years back.The PeopleAdmin system is being used company-wide. The Human Resources Department is the administrator of the system and all departments and applicants are users of the system. The system has really simplified our recruiting process. It has solved problems with workflow of our requisitions, which used to be a manual process. Now requisitions can be reviewed by all appropriate approving managers, including the budget office, prior to posting. This has reduced our "time to post" by at least 3 days in most cases. Electronic applications have also increased the number of applications that we receive for our positions, reduced recruiting fees, reduced applicant traffic in our department, and reduced copying and mailing expenses. It has also made it much easier for managers and committee members to review applications without having to come to HR and review files. The system has also reduced our "time to fill" significantly as managers can review applicant materials, request interviews, and make hiring decisions much more efficiently in this system. Hire Forms are also electronic so they can be routed through the approval chain must faster than the manual process we once had.

PeopleAdmin is used throughout The Scripps Research Institute. Human Resources makes the most use of it, but hiring managers for all departments use it for staffing.

PeopleAdmin is used throughout our Human Resources department for hiring purposes. It is used to post positions that are available throughout campus and for candidates to apply for these positions. With PeopleAdmin it makes it easy to see who applies for each position and to see how they would fit into the position available. It makes it easy for our department to screen applicants and find the necessary information we need to contact them.

PeopleAdmin is being used on our campus as the sole application site for all staff and faculty positions. We are currently using the 5.8 version and there are some drawbacks --- the "back" button is not useful and it does not enable efficient reporting tools for HR and managers.

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.
