Executive Hiring Hurdles LHC International Faced

LHC International faced some roadblocks with the previous system they were using. Let’s explore each challenge in detail.

Roadblock 1: Limitations of Recruitment Data Analytics

LHC International faced many challenges due to the limited functionalities of a Recruitment Analytics feature in the previous system. As a result, the executive recruiters at LHC International struggled to clearly make informed, data-driven decisions about their processes and workflows.

It became challenging for the team to optimise executive search strategies since it took extra effort to track and measure the effectiveness of their hiring efforts efficiently. Also, the lack of advanced functionalities in recruitment data analytics impeded LHC's capacity to identify trends and patterns within their hiring processes.

Roadblock 2: Difficulties in Automatically Asking Renewal of Data Consent

LHC International experienced the inconvenience of manually requesting candidates to renew their consent with the previous Executive Search ATS. Unfortunately, there was no automated process in place to handle the renewal once the consent expired.

This added to their operational burden. As a result, managing data consent became a cumbersome task for LHC International, which impacted their ability to streamline their operations effectively. Also, in Europe, there are higher regulations regarding data protection.

Roadblock 3: Ineffective Client Support & Less Customisation But Higher Pricing

LHC International grappled with inefficient customer support from the previous ATS provider, which resulted in major challenges for their operations. The lack of flexible and customised solutions leads to a stagnation in elevating their user experience.

The prior system LHC International used primarily lacked some customisation options despite its higher cost. The limited customisation restricted their ability to tailor the system to fit their unique clients’ workflows and requirements, resulting in inefficiencies.

The iSmartRecruit Solution

Frustrated with their old system, LHC International began to look for a recruitment system solution that better fits their Executive Search needs. Soon, they found iSmartRecruit. Impressed by its capabilities, LHC reaps the benefits below.

iSmartRecruit offered centralised candidate data and interactions so that LHC International could effectively nurture relationships with potential candidates, enhancing their recruitment efforts and increasing the likelihood of successful hires. It saves them valuable time and resources.

Solution 2: Custom & Automated Workflow

LHC International found the best-tailored Executive Search ATS solution to their recruitment needs after using iSmartRecruit's Executive Recruitment ATS. iSmartRecruit enabled them to customise workflows to fit their unique client needs and streamlined the overall process from start to finish.

By leveraging it, LHC International seamlessly connected with executive talent and built stronger relationships, keeping them engaged throughout the executive hiring process.

The result? Enhanced candidate experiences resulted in higher retention rates for their clients. By effectively managing talent pools and nurturing candidate relationships, LHC International attracted top-tier talent easily.
