Case Study: Westminster-Canterbury on Chesapeake Bay achieves faster, lower-cost hiring with Hyrell

Hiring Automation Leads to Significant Benefits for Westminster-Canterbury on Chesapeake Bay

Westminster-Canterbury on Chesapeake Bay is a continuing care retirement community with roughly 700 residents and about 540 employees that hires roughly 200 people a year across roles from hospitality to specialized healthcare. Its recruiting was largely manual—reliant on newspaper ads, individual job boards and Excel tracking—which generated thousands of resumes (sometimes 300 for one opening), made it hard to track applicants or share information with hiring managers, and created long, inefficient hiring cycles and poor applicant communication.

Westminster-Canterbury implemented Hyrell’s cloud-based hiring solution to automate job posting, applicant tracking, virtual interviews, scheduling and status notifications, and to centralize hiring data. The change cut advertising costs by consolidating postings, eliminated paper-based review and phone-tag, improved screening and reach to more qualified candidates, enhanced the organization’s reputation, and delivered measurable time and cost savings.
