Unlike other applicant tracking products, Desktop Recruiter is an end-to-end hiring solution that completely re-engineers the hiring process with robust workflow capabilities. It gives companies competitive advantage by quickly moving qualified candidates through the hiring process, from identifying potential candidates to systematic closure of the requisition folder. What's more, Desktop Recruiter is enabled by hardware and software that are most likely part of your company's existing infrastructure - providing a return on your original technology investment, without requiring any additional implementation, administration and user training costs.

Here's How it Works Desktop Recruiter is essentially a state-of-the-art electronic filing cabinet with two drawers - one for job openings ("Requisitions") and one for people ("Dossiers"). The product uses software system agents called Position Categories to match information between the two drawers. In addition to allowing users to match Requisition and Dossier information via sophisticated search criteria, Desktop Recruiter's paper-free, workflow environment guides you through requisition creation and approval.

Scanning/Gathering Résumés Paper résumés can be scanned and processed into Desktop Recruiter Dossiers by SkillSet's Resume Center. In order to eliminate labor intensive data capture tasks, SkillSet also has partnerships with leading data conversion providers such as Scan Centers of America (SCA) and SAZTEC International.

Competitive Advantage - Workflow for Collaboration and Communication Desktop Recruiter fully integrates with Lotus Notes' industry standard groupware technology to manage all the procedures and documents that typically flow through the hiring process. These include all of the tasks and documents associated with Requisitions and Dossiers such as electronic signature approval, forms routing, automated correspondence, employee referrals, Web-based job postings and more. By involving key, non-HR groups in the hiring process, Desktop Recruiter allows companies to hire as an enterprise versus a single organization. Unlike other systems that require your intervention to toss information back and forth via e-mail before finalizing candidate selection, interview schedules, reference checks and evaluations, SkillSet's products involve hiring managers, colleagues, employees, applicants, payroll and finance groups and even external recruiters at key points in the process.
