Brennan IT has been serving Australian businesses for over 20 years, offering a bespoke service that encompasses networking, end-user services and infrastructure as well as IT security services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When Adam Crofts first joined Brennan IT, the business was using outdated talent acquisition methods, with time-to-fill extending to 68 days.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Adam noted that the main challenge was around inefficiencies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\u201cWe\u2019d place an ad and just see how we went, which doesn\u2019t work. We had a system that was terrible. Everything took three to five clicks to get to one spot instead of a simple user interface.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
There was also the challenge of the approval process. Adam explained that getting the approval could take up to a week and a half, requiring a physical signature, email and scanning.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\u201cBecause it had to be emailed to [the approver] who then had to find the time to do that, print it out, sign and send\u2026 it was just a nightmare.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
This process meant there was very little compliance, despite the business having ISO accreditation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How JobAdder was able to help<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Cutting hours of admin work every week<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Since implementing JobAdder, Brennan IT has been able to achieve two significant time-saving milestones:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
- They\u2019ve cut their average time-to-fill time by 40%, with a new rate of 28 days<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- They\u2019ve cut around 3-4 hours of admin time per person, which, with four people in the team, represents two full working days per week<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
A big part of this, Adam explains, is the fact that everything the Brennan IT team needs for their recruitment efforts is within one central platform:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\u201cYou don\u2019t have to go and log into another system; it\u2019s all from the one source of truth. When you\u2019ve got one source of truth, everything gets done through there. From a purely administration perspective, it saves you significant time and effort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And the beauty is, you can add that value elsewhere, whether it\u2019s running training, strategic planning or forecasting with our leaders.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
Attracting top talent<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Talent acquisition can be challenging for Brennan IT. This is due to two reasons: they\u2019re competing against other managed service providers (MSPs), big and small, and the complexity of the work narrowing down the field of potential candidates significantly.\u00a0Brennan IT now addresses this using talent pools across the areas they recruit for. This includes infrastructure and network support, security, cloud and professional services. Adam explains:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\u201cUsing JobAdder, we can directly engage with talent and have their whole history, every email correspondence, in one source of truth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We know exactly who\u2019s available, when they\u2019re available, and what they\u2019re looking for. We know what would actually encourage them to leave where they\u2019re at because that talent pool isn\u2019t necessarily people that have applied for a job with us.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
Get more from your recruiting efforts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
When recommending JobAdder, Adam focuses largely on the time-saving element, because \u201cevery single talent acquisition team is under-resourced,\u201d as well as the ability to build talent pools. Then there\u2019s the ease of use.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\u201cIt\u2019s not complicated; it\u2019s easy to use and really delivers on what it needs to. JobAdder is allowing me to do my job effectively and allowing me to add more value to my stakeholders.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
