QJumpers and WorkPro “Change the Recruitment Game”
QJumpers and WorkPro “Change the Recruitment Game” with
Fast-Tracked Background
Checks
Kiwi
recruitment software expert QJumpers has joined forces with
innovative Australian screening and induction specialist
WorkPro to create a hi-tech shortcut that speeds up the
hiring process in New Zealand.
Ministry of Justice
background checks from WorkPro are an efficient,
cost-effective and flexible way to process your NZ MoJ
checks. The service offers an easy, online application, fast
response times, flexibility to choose from a standard check
or priority checks each time a check is
processed.
WorkPro has spent the past 10 years helping
organisations more easily manage workforce compliance and in
more recent years, revolutionizing how Kiwi companies
process and manage MoJ checks.
But the new
groundbreaking partnership – QJumpers is the only New
Zealand applicant tracking system to integrate with
WorkPro’s system – now sees the whole process automated
so that a company can order a MoJ check through the
intuitive QJumpers dashboard; a candidate can complete the
process online; and the finished check can be returned
directly into the company’s QJumpers system within a
guaranteed five-day turnaround.
This aids speed, cost and
efficiency and provides a clear advantage when it comes to
candidate experience – one of the key drivers in today’s
competitive employment market.
WorkPro founder Tania
Evans said background MoJ checks were a huge growth area in
New Zealand recruitment.
“When you unite HR tech with a
web-based recruiting platform such as QJumpers it can
significantly enhance business efficiencies”, says Tania.
“Recruiters can now more easily present better qualified,
work-ready candidates, it streamlines the whole recruiting
process for them, and provides their clients with a superior
service. WorkPro also guarantees a 5-day turnaround for
priority checks which massively reduces time to hire saving
employers thousands of dollars in lost time. It’s a win
for candidates, recruiters and their clients.”
“Interestingly when we started doing police checks in
Australia 10 years ago the only people who needed them were
primarily those working with vulnerable groups – and that
appeared to be similar when we introduced the service to New
Zealand. But we have found that it has taken off over the
course of the past three years and now it’s not just those
working with vulnerable groups. Maybe it’s because New
Zealand employers are becoming a bit more risk-averse, or
perhaps the media has played a role in highlighting the risk
around making sure people’s backgrounds are checked and
validated because of the damage that can be caused by an
individual.”
QJumpers General Manager Simon Oldham said
WorkPro’s automated “post-and-retrieve” system
provided a seamless process for clients when integrated with
the QJumpers software.
“Initially we used their service
manually but the idea of QJumpers is to enable our clients
to be able to manage all of their recruitment needs through
the software – never needing to leave from the time that
they have an opening until the job is filled,” Simon
said.
“Once WorkPro had completed their automated
system, we jumped on board and became the first New Zealand
applicant tracking system to integrate. We are still the
only one.
“It is so much faster and easier for a client
to click a button within their recruitment system to request
an MoJ and then having the completed MoJ check automatically
returned to QJumpers platform. Also, all information about
applicants is contained within the one system instead of
having some on email, some on spreadsheets, some in WorkPro
and some in QJumpers.”
The trans-Tasman partnership
might not stop at MoJ checks either, with both companies
talking about automating further aspects of the hiring
process.
“As WorkPro expands their integrations into
other services such as workplace inductions and ACC checks,
QJumpers will continue to add these services into our
recruitment platform to make these services easily available
to our clients with the extra convenience of never needing
to leave QJumpers,” Simon said.
“QJumpers is always
looking for ways to make recruitment easier for its clients.
Any technology that we can implement to save our users’
time and money within the recruitment process will be
considered. The partnership with WorkPro is a great example
of how we have done exactly this.”
