Case Study: Peabody Essex Museum achieves faster hiring and streamlined onboarding with ClearCompany

The Peabody Essex Museum Adds ClearCompany’s Industry-Leading Software to Their Amazing Collection

The Peabody Essex Museum (PEM) in Salem, Massachusetts is one of North America’s fastest‑growing and longest‑running museums, stewarding more than 840,000 works and supported by 400+ staff, interns, and volunteers. Managing a wide range of hiring needs—from international curator searches to frontline and volunteer roles—had become difficult with paper applications, separate forms for different candidate types, no centralized records, and costly, first‑day onboarding packets.

After evaluating multiple vendors, PEM implemented ClearCompany to streamline recruiting and onboarding. ClearCompany delivered online applications, interview scheduling, shareable candidate notes, bulk actions, centralized candidate files, and a bi‑directional ADP payroll integration, plus online onboarding forms. The result: faster, smoother candidate experiences, greater hiring manager involvement, reduced paperwork and administrative time, and a single up‑to‑date employee record that helps PEM quickly staff and engage talent.
