Networx‘s recruitment management system, apoint+, has been chosen as provider to information and consultancy provider Wolters Kluwer, parent company of Croner.
Handling on average over 30 vacancies per month, the UK business was in need of a management tool to help deliver substantial benefits to a relatively small recruitment resource including improved efficiency and reduced time and cost spent on recruitment.

A role specific application form presents applicants with the opportunity to provide further details in support of their CV and upon submission acknowledgements are sent upon receipt of their information to complete the application process.
As well as improving the recruitment process for the candidate, Wolters Kluwer UK will also gain more control through the back office of apoint+, the recruitment management system will assist in the administration and organistation of the cycle.
