Modernized Recruitment Software Proves Successful for GCCC
[Garden City, KS] August 10, 2021 -- The Garden City Community College Admissions Office has seen great success since implementing a modernized recruitment software, Ellucian CRM Recruit.
In early 2021, GCCC began using CRM Recruit, a recruitment system that streamlines manual processes of the admission process. Prior to this software, every application was entered manually by a member of the Admissions staff. Not only was this process time-consuming for staff, but it was lengthy and confusing for students who could not track their applications.
Students now receive automated emails and reminders throughout the entire admissions process. CRM Recruit has allowed for automating processes and email responses, which allows staff more time to connect with prospective students one-on-one. It also allows faculty members the ability to send tailored communications about their given program to students. This personalized communication channel then allows students the opportunity to contact and ask questions from faculty.
Dr. Ruda, GCCC President, had high praise for the employees who made this all possible, "The implementation and enhancement of CRM Recruit are credited to the Admissions staff, IT department and the implementation team at GCCC who saw the project through." He also highlighted how GCCC continuously improves processes to better serve students, "The addition of CRM Recruit has tremendous benefits to improving services to students and enhancing processes and communication at the college. GCCC is seeing positive results through streamlining and automating these processes."
