Case Study: Teach For America achieves automated candidate selection and reduced manual processing time with Bonitasoft

Automation of Candidate Selection with Bonita

Teach For America, a national nonprofit working to eliminate educational inequity, faced a heavy manual burden in its candidate selection process—reviewing some 60,000–70,000 applications annually—and needed to streamline and automate admissions to identify the right teachers and reduce time-consuming tasks. To address this, they engaged Bonitasoft and deployed Bonitasoft’s Bonita BPM solution.

Bonitasoft implemented an automated selection workflow (starting with a successful pilot) that integrates with TFA’s systems—including Salesforce and custom Java code via Bonita connectors—allowing staff to shift from manual processing to value-added work. The Bonitasoft solution significantly reduced the time spent on manual processes, improved throughput in handling tens of thousands of applications, and enabled TFA to focus on placing the best teachers in classrooms; TFA is now expanding Bonita to additional front- and back-office processes.
