Case Study: University of Melbourne achieves 66% faster applicant processing and 40% more efficient recruiting with PageUp RMS

University of Melbourne - Customer Case Study

The University of Melbourne, a world-ranked institution with 7,300 staff serving over 35,000 students, was receiving nearly 20,000 job applications a year for roughly 800 roles and found its legacy recruiting system could not handle that volume. The university needed a secure, modern solution to automate and streamline hiring, support hiring managers, improve HR communication, and ensure privacy-compliant processes while maintaining a strong candidate experience and employer brand.

The university implemented the PageUp Recruitment Management Solution (RMS), a flexible, cloud-based system that let hiring managers execute tasks independently and integrated with existing processes. As a result, recruiting processes were streamlined by 40% and job posting and application review were sped up by 66%, shaving weeks off time-to-fill, improving candidate communication and branding, and helping retain top talent while meeting strict privacy requirements.
