Case Study: Achievement First achieves 60% faster offer turnaround and up to 90% fewer errors with Adobe Document Cloud

Raising the Bar for Achievement

Achievement First is a network of 32 public charter schools serving 11,500 students across Connecticut, New York, and Rhode Island, committed to closing the achievement gap by recruiting and retaining talented teachers and leaders. The organization struggled with a high-volume, error-prone hiring process—sending about 100 offer letters a month—relying on faxes, scans, and photos that were legally problematic, slowed turnaround, and left recruiters with less time to match candidates to roles.

Achievement First implemented Adobe Sign and integrated it with the Jobscience applicant tracking system to automate offer-letter generation, document selection, and tracking. The digital workflow improved the candidate experience and recruiter efficiency, cutting turnaround time by 60%, halving the time to generate an offer letter, and reducing document errors by up to 90%, freeing recruiters to focus on hiring the best educators.
