Case Study: Gables Residential achieves time and cost savings with iCIMS Onboard

Gables Residential - Customer Case Study

Gables Residential is a nationally recognized, vertically integrated real estate company managing multifamily and mixed‑use communities with about 1,200 employees. Its paper‑based onboarding process was costly and slow—new hires spent their first day filling out forms, payroll and IT setups were delayed, and hiring managers reported frustration over lost productivity and shipping/printing expenses.

Gables implemented iCIMS Onboard to deliver personalized pre‑hire electronic forms, role/state-based form routing, e‑signatures and integrations with HRIS and background screening. The change cut required paperwork from 10+ forms to 4–5, enabled payroll and IT setup before day one, saved thousands in shipping costs and supervisor time, and noticeably improved new hire and hiring manager satisfaction.
