For most
large companies the staffing process is controlled by sets of rules that
ensure the equitable treatment of all job applicants for a particular
type of position. The rule for management jobs may be as simple as "consider
employees first", while those for occupational jobs may be codified in
a complex union contract.
dgStaff
supports all flavors of the staffing life cycle within the context of
the rules that your business follows. In addition to supporting multiple
agreements, dgStaff has a set of unique concepts built in to allow implementation
of your staffing rules. The following are just the highlights:
1. Unlike basic applicant tracking systems, dgStaff
knows a great deal about your current employees. With this knowledge in
hand, you can define rules that govern eligibility for normal job movement
(relating, perhaps, to performance and time in job). More importantly,
you can grant special consideration to an employee who is in a situation
that warrants special treatment. For example, an employee who has been
declared surplus may be granted a surplus special consideration that could
override some or all of the normal rules for movement.
2. dgStaff
bases its matching on job bids initiated by employees and external applicants.
In addition to modifications to eligibility, employees with Special Considerations
might be granted special bidding privileges, priority placement requests.
dgStaff
allows you to reserve some types of priority placement requests to your
staffing professionals. Typical situations include employees who have
medical restrictions or are returning from leave.
3. In addition to our various types of placement requests, we
use claimed and measured competencies to include or exclude potential
candidates. Skills are claimed by a person, and verified by an employee's
supervisor or a hiring manager. Tests and employment screenings may be
scheduled, and the results recorded by internal or external providers.
It is worth noting that the competency requirements may be altered by
placement request type.
4. Managing all of these special bids and various competencies
would be impossible without a centralized list of bidders. The dgStaff
candidate summary is a list of placement requests in the order in which
the candidates should be considered. The order reflects all of your rules
about job qualifications (competencies, etc.) as well as special considerations
and placement request types. For example, an employee with a surplus placement
request might appear before another with equal qualifications but a normal
placement request type.
Clearly,
these rules may vary by type Job Requisition, and dgStaff
supports this as well. All of the rules that drive dgStaff are easily
customizable to reflect your staffing policies. Your branded version of
dgStaff
will support your unique staffing processes for managers, staffers, employees,
and applicants.
