Case Study: Cardiff and Vale College improves bilingual recruiting and candidate experience with HireRoad

Cardiff and Vale College - Customer Case Study

Cardiff and Vale College, one of the UK’s largest colleges, needed to modernize a highly manual recruitment process that involved heavy admin, large volumes of paper, and a growing need to improve the candidate experience. HireRoad’s HR Recruit applicant tracking system was chosen to help the college manage more than 2,000 applications a year for around 100 vacancies while also supporting a bilingual English and Welsh application process.

With HireRoad’s HR Recruit, Cardiff and Vale College automated routine recruitment tasks, gave hiring managers better visibility and control, and created a more modern, streamlined candidate journey. The college reduced the resources needed to handle peak hiring periods, eliminated the burden of printing more than 20,000 pages of applications annually, and improved reporting for hiring decisions, including easier generation of Equality and Diversity reports.
