iCIMS Announces Addition of Onboarding Module to Hiring Management Solution Suite

iCIMS, a Software-as-a-Service provider, today announced the release of iHire, the companyís comprehensive onboarding addition to its Talent Management suite. Fully integrated with iRecruiter, iCIMSí configurable hiring management platform, iHire is designed to simplify an organizationís onboarding program by automating the delivery and completion of post-hire forms, while also improving the management of new hire notifications among internal authorities. iHire enhances iRecruiterís existing onboarding functionality by enabling organizations to distribute, complete and manage post-hire forms directly within iRecruiter.

Many companies of all sizes struggle with a plethora of paperwork and processes that are time consuming for new hires and recruiters alike. In response, iCIMS developed iHire as a highly configurable, easy-to-use solution that eliminates many manual post-hire activities, thereby creating a more positive transition for new employees. With iHire, HR professionals are able to coordinate the logistics of a new employeeís first days with the company through a configurable list of activities that match the organizationís workflow. Moreover, iHire features a secure self-service portal to facilitate the delivery and completion of both custom and standard post-hire documentation, including automated direct deposit, I-9 and W-4 forms. iHire also leverages iRecruiterís existing notification center to trigger alerts to appropriate internal authorities and automate prompts to close jobs, remove postings and issue notifications to candidates that were not selected for the position.

ìRecognizing the importance of hiring the best candidates, organizations strive to provide a positive applicant experience, but this standard of service often doesnít carry over into a new employeeís post-hire experience,î said Colin Day, CEO of iCIMS. ìStarting a new job can be stressful and overwhelming. iHire was designed to ease the often tedious onboarding process for both the new employee and the HR department. The offering works in line with the departmentís internal process and is consistent with the pre-hire experience that played a role in securing the new employee.î

Day added, ìThe faster an organization can help new employees feel comfortable and oriented with the companyís procedures, the more quickly those new employees can contribute to meeting organizational goals and moving the business forward. With iHire, administrative time and costs are reduced through a comprehensive, automated solution that enables new employees to become acclimated to their new environment quickly while simultaneously ensuring HR that government and organizational requirements are completed correctly and on time.î

More than 350 corporations leverage iCIMSí suite of iRecruiter hiring management solutions to drive their strategic talent management initiatives. Developed and delivered on a flexible and highly configurable technology platform, companies of all sizes can turn to iCIMS to meet their current hiring needs as well as plan for long-term workforce management goals. iCIMS also offers comprehensive customer support, consulting and technical services to ensure clients maximize their iRecruiter investment.
