Contact Information

The application process is a candidate’s first glimpse at how you do business. A lot is riding on that initial impression. HRMC Acclaim™ ensures that this key point of contact is positive, proactive, and consistent.

Job seekers usually require something very simple during the job-hunting process: feedback. Am I a fit for this job? Is the company still hiring? Will they call me back for an interview? Should I go with the other job offer? The longer it takes to get these responses, the more likely a candidate will lose interest.

Acclaim is a highly responsive solution to this problem. The system is transparent, so applicants are typically unaware that they are utilizing anything apart from your company’s technology. They receive a warm welcome, company information, details of the job opening, and clear instructions.

After the computer-adaptive assessment, they are informed immediately if they’re a fit for a specific position. Most importantly, Acclaim does not require résumés, so the applicants are assessed in terms of what they can really do, not what they say they can do. Most candidates appreciate being able to “show their stuff” in a meaningful way. Other highlights of the applicant experience include:

Application interrupt and resume provides the convenience of starting the application process, interrupting the process, and resuming it at a later time (including the ability to switch between use of the telephone and web browser along the way).
Apply by phone and/or web anytime allows candidates to apply for specific jobs at their convenience, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week via telephone using interactive voice response (IVR) technology, and/or by responding online to job-specific questions presented in a variety of formats and a friendly and intuitive interface.

“I’ve tested automated telephone interviews before, but none compare to this. Acclaim feels like a real interview.”
