As technology continues to develop, it’s changing the way HR and onboarding teams operate and attract, onboard and monitor new applicants. Whilst digital onboarding and automated HR processes can be hugely beneficial, the sheer choice of technology and number of systems used by HR team can also be somewhat overwhelming. That’s why many businesses are increasingly looking for integrated systems to support all their recruitment needs.
Systems that aren’t integrated have the possibility to cause mistakes and exacerbate the problems they were initially introduced to solve, which can then greatly increase the administrative time on staff members. So, what are the key benefits of integrating your HR systems?
Increased efficiency
When HR systems are integrated, it removes manual and time-consuming tasks of navigating between multiple systems and inputting data into different interfaces. During onboarding, instead of issuing a compliance check, such as a Right to Work check, through a standalone third-party platform, an integrated solution means an employer can issue the check with one simple click from within the ATS or HR system. The integration between Tracker and TrustID allows the candidate to complete their compliance check without leaving the Tracker platform, and the hiring manager can see the report clearly back within the platform before progressing the applicant to the next stage.
Increased data accuracy
Having duplicate data across many systems greatly increases the risk of error. A centralised system eliminates the need for manual data entry and reduces the chances of human error. Manually inputting data between multiple platforms can pose a serious risk, including data loss or compliance data being entered incorrectly, which could lead to delays or wider business risks. An integrated system also facilitates an end-to-end employee audit trail showing when data is altered or updated and by whom.
Improved employee experience
Candidate attraction and retention is crucial in an increasingly competitive environment. A slick and streamlined candidate experience, driven by an integrated system, gives a strong first impression of your organisation. It also means that employees benefit from a more efficient experience – from recruitment to hiring to onboarding. Any information collected during the recruitment process can automatically be added to the candidate profile, along with critical compliance information such as confirmation of pre-employment checks. New staff will not need to share their information again as all information will be given once and kept in one place.
