Yellow Cab of Denver has taken automation to a new level in the process involved with contracting cab and shuttle drivers. Using the Fast Recruiting system, Yellow enables their specific process to be automated as follows:
- Ads are placed via Fast Recruiting
- Prospective Contractors go through an online pre screen questionaire, which serves to disqualify about 20% of the applicants from being considered for interviews.
- Those that qualify from the pre screen fill out the contractor application, complete other custom documents for Yellow Cab, and agree to a background check.
- Once they complete these documents, they are invited to pick an available time and date for an interview, based upon the recruiters Fast Recruiting Availability calendar, maintained by the recruiter within their log in.
- Applicants show up for an interview, and their application is reviewed. Those matching the qualifications are then background checked within the Fast Recruiting program by TalentWise, our integrated background check provider.
- The qualifying applicant is pre contracted and scheduled for Orientation and Safety classes using the Fast Recruiting system for the scheduling.
- Upon successfully completing the orientation/safety class the driver is Contracted and assigned a contractor number automatically through the Fast Recruiting system.
- License and other critical information is scanned into the Fast Recruiting system, and alerts Yellow via email and within the system to any pending expiration's.
"The time savings is enormous and the contractor information is always complete. Bottom line is we are able to keep our fleet on the road with less resources involved and in a much more organized fashion. " said Cory Mack, Contracting Supervisor for Denver Yellow Cab.
Maintaining the contractor files is another area in which Yellow is benefiting from going paperless with FastRecruiting. "Before contracting an applicant, we can easily see that all required documents have been completed. Once contracted, we are alerted to any expiring documents. Having the files talk to us, insures we are 100% compliant and up to date on all contractor files. Before using Fast Recruiting, this was not nearly as easy a task," commented Mack.
Bart Bement, CEO of Fast Recruiting added, "It is nice to see a client employing all the automation we have built into the system, and to see it working exactly as intended. Although not all our clients choose to take the automated path to this degree, based upon the results of Yellow, they may want to reconsider their Fast Recruiting setup to include some of these optional tools."
