Before CareerPlug, several locations of The Goddard School struggled with the usual hiring challenges like low applicant counts and hiring processes that drained time and money. Since implementing CareerPlug, Jim Wolfarth, of The Goddard School in Baltimore, has seen a 70% increase in applicant volume and a 50% decrease in recruitment cost.
About the Goddard School:
The Goddard School is a private preschool franchise with over 600 schools across 38 states. The schools offer an innovative academic program that helps children learn valuable skills and sets them up for long-term success.
The Problem:
For Jim Wolfwarth at the Goddard School in Baltimore, Maryland, the quality of candidates he was receiving did not match up with the ever-increasing cost of promoting their open jobs on multiple hiring platforms. He could no longer justify paying so much for advertising jobs and needed higher caliber candidates. Other Goddard locations were experiencing similar frustrations.
The Solution:
CareerPlug posts your job to all the major job boards in just one click to help you expand your reach. Plus, the pre-screening tools ensure that applicants meet your minimum requirements, so you don’t waste any time with unqualified candidates. CareerPlug saved the Goddard School time and money.
Automatic job distribution brings in more applicants at a lower price
Jim Wolfarth shared that CareerPlug increased his business’s applicant count by 70% per month, and they are spending over 50% less on advertising their open jobs online.
Other Goddard locations have experienced similar benefits.
Sarah from the Goddard School of Pickerton was able to publish and share multiple job postings and attract more candidates than before for less money. She shares, “CareerPlug has been a game changer in hiring new employees at our school. We have already saved hundreds of dollars in just a few months compared to when we were posting directly to individual job boards. We are able to run constant job postings and receive daily applicants without having to worry about the budget.”
And Rick from the Goddard School of Union town also saw an increase in applicants:
100% increase in candidate quality
But the Goddard School didn’t just receive more applicants – they received better applicants. In addition to increasing applicant quantity, CareerPlug helped improve applicant quality as well by over 100%.
Rick adds, “Even better is the candidates we are getting are pre-screened and given a score based on our requirements for our positions. We know immediately whether or not they have the qualifications, experience, knowledge, and skills to work with us.”
Automated interview scheduling makes it easier to convert the best applicants to interview quickly
Not only is the Goddard school enjoying an increase in applicant volume, they are able to more easily pinpoint the best fit for their open roles and let them self-schedule their interviews.
CareerPlug’s pre-screening and automated interview scheduling tools make it easier for Goddard to convert more high-quality candidates to interviews, saving managers time (and we all know time is money!).
