Streamlining Global Consultant Recruitment with infoRouter
A leading multinational consulting firm, renowned for delivering large-scale projects to prestigious organizations like the World Bank, IMF, and European Union, faced a growing challenge in managing the resumes of hundreds of consultants. Their business model depended on attracting and hiring subject matter experts for multi-million-dollar projects, often involving government and international agencies. These projects, requiring long-term commitments from hundreds of consultants, meant submitting expert resumes to various clients, each with specific formatting preferences.
The sheer volume of resumes, combined with the need to format and submit them differently based on client requirements, placed a heavy administrative burden on the firm. Manually processing, reviewing, and formatting resumes consumed countless hours, significantly slowing down their recruitment process. Failing to submit resumes in time often led to lost opportunities.
The infoRouter Solution: A Game-Changer for Consultant Management
Recognizing the inefficiency, the firm turned to infoRouter to streamline their resume management process. Leveraging infoRouter’s built-in Forms Management module, they created a standardized HTML form for capturing consultant data. This form, embedded in a customized portal for applicants, allowed consultants to easily submit their resumes directly into the a folder created in infoRouter.
Once submitted, the data was automatically converted to XML and displayed in the firm’s standardized HTML layout. But that was only the beginning. Custom properties embedded in the forms ensured that resumes were instantly routed to the appropriate project managers for review, expediting the hiring process. With the custom properties feature, the firm could quickly search for matching resumes when a job position was posted. Within minutes, these matching resumes were automatically rendered in the hiring company’s preferred format and submitted, helping the firm respond to opportunities faster than ever before.
Additionally, the standardized conversion of information reduced errors and omissions, ensuring the resumes were consistently formatted according to each client's specific needs.
