Hazlet, NJ (PRWEB) May 26, 2005 –- iCIMS, a leading provider of web-based
Hiring Management Solutions, announced today that University of Maryland
University College (UMUC) has selected iRecruiter to streamline the University's
growing Worldwide Faculty Recruitment program. Under the terms of the agreement,
iRecruiter will be implemented across the University and will manage the UMUC
worldwide faculty recruitment initiative.
UMUC, the largest public
university in the United States offering online programs and one of the fastest
growing universities nationwide, has, since its inception in 1947, been highly
regarded for being on the forefront of providing education for nontraditional
students and working adults. It is a large and diverse university, currently
serving more than 90,000 students worldwide in both traditional classrooms and
online.
To support its phenomenal expected enrollment growth, UMUC has
selected iCIMS' iRecruiter Applicant Tracking Solution to improve the sourcing,
review, and hiring of faculty members across the globe. iRecruiter will also
allow UMUC to more effectively leverage both external and internal employment
advertising tools to increase the exposure of job opportunities at the
University to a broader target audience.
“As a university that offers
more than 500 online courses, we recognize the value of web-based offerings,”
says Iris Harvey, UMUC's Director of Worldwide Faculty Recruitment. “Our rapidly
growing student enrollments increased our demand for faculty, a recruiting need
we knew could be handled more efficiently through the installation of a
web-based Applicant Tracking and Candidate Management System. After taking a
careful survey of the technologies available to organizations like UMUC, it was
clear that the flexibility of the iRecruiter platform, as well as inherent
ease-of-use of the application and interoperability with other HR management
tools, would best suit the University’s goal to make UMUC faculty recruitment a
more effective and strategic business function throughout the recruiting
lifecycle.”
iCIMS' suite of iRecruiter Hiring Management Solutions are
currently in use by nearly 250 organizations worldwide and have been recognized
as the Industry’s #1 applicant tracking offerings in each of the past two years.
While iCIMS has provided recruitment technologies to departments within colleges
and universities in the past, UMUC will be the first university to leverage the
iRecruiter platform across all academic departments.
“iCIMS looks forward
to continuing our work with UMUC and is eager to take our place within the
foundation of University of Maryland University College's strategic recruitment
vision,” says Adam Feigenbaum, Director of Marketing & Sales with iCIMS.
“iRecruiter provides organizations the tools they need to streamline their
hiring efforts and reduce their bottom-line, helping them realize a significant
return-on-investment from day one. UMUC has presented iCIMS with a very clear
path to follow for their recruitment management program and we are excited to
play a leading role in making that vision a reality for the
University.”
