ITS Technologies is one of the Midwest’s largest specialized staffing agencies in the US and it represents some of the most respected names in the industry.

We have recently had the chance to ask Jeff Frantz, Director of IT Services at ITS Technologies, some questions about his experience working with Daxtra Capture and this is the result:

Daxtra Technologies:  What was life like before using Daxtra Capture?

Jeff Frantz: Our recruiters were terrible at getting resumes into our applicant tracking system.  They simply would not take the time to import resumes which meant candidates were not in our database and not findable by our users.  So, we had two administrative employees whose responsibility was to import resumes.  It was a cumbersome job and there were often errors, and they would fall behind in keeping up with the volume of candidate resumes.  Sometimes, it would be two weeks from the time a recruiter sent a resume for importing until it was in our ATS due to backlog.

DT: Why did you choose Daxtra for that purpose?

J.F.: Quite simply, there was no parsing technology like Daxtra had.  We had reviewed many other products and were never impressed at information extraction.  In fact, I didn’t believe the first demo from Daxtra so I found the worst resumes I could to run them through the parsing engine to see if they could be parsed.  Every resume I submitted was extracted with 100% accuracy.  I was quite stunned, really.  The information Daxtra’s technology was able to extract from resumes would take a person 10-15 minutes.

DT: What are the results after using Daxtra Capture?

J.F.: Resume importing went from being a chore to completely automated.  Resumes are available in our ATS within minutes rather than days or weeks.  Our Daxtra Candidate Capture system has parsed and imported hundreds of thousands of resumes.  Getting candidates into our database is no longer an issue. Daxtra’s technology is also outstanding at identifying duplicate records and thus preventing duplicates in the ATS.

DT: How does Daxtra solution integrate with your business model?

J.F.: Our Daxtra Candidate Capture implementation is hands-off for the users.  Any emailed resumes the user receives are automatically copied to the Candidate Capture system and automatically parsed and imported.  The user also has a shared folder where they can simply drag and drop or save resume files to for easy parsing and importing.  Daxtra has allowed us to focus on filling our customer’s jobs.

DT: Would you recommend Daxtra to other recruitment companies?

J.F.: Absolutely, and I do recommend Daxtra whenever I have the opportunity.  There simply is nothing better at context-sensitive parsing.  The ROI on Daxtra’s products is short.  Candidate Capture had recovered our investment within a few months.  Save yourself time, money and headaches with Daxtra.

DaXtra has signed a partnership agreement with the recruitment efficiency specialist TrackerRMS to provide an integrated, contextualised search capability to the US, Canadian and UK recruitment market.

Recruitment agencies and staffing companies using TrackerRMS will now benefit from an enhanced functionality, which will offer a single point of entry to search for candidates throughout both, their internal database and external online resources. 

This integration will help TrackerRMS to avoid having to log in and out of jobboards sequentially, saving considerable time on shortlist creation. It will also provide recruiters with the ability to get a single aggregated results list from their searches, where the most relevant candidates from their internal database and the internet are ranked by relevancy.

TrackerRMS is already using DaXtra’s Resume parsing software to automatically extract information from resumes and load it onto the TrackerRMS platform saving hours of manual work and allowing users to focus on actually making placements.

David Alonso, Founder and Chief Executive Officer at TrackerRMS, describes, “As Recruitment Software providers, our priority is to provide the user with the best experience, and by integrating Daxtra tools within our system, our users will see an improvement in their efficiency save time on admin tasks and find the best candidates.”

Steve Finch, Founder and Chief Technology Officer at DaXtra comments, “The ability to search and capture candidate information is one of the most important functionalities in software tools for recruitment. The new partnership will benefit both parties. It will enhance our offering to the Applicant Tracking software market and at the same time TrackerRMS users will benefit of a contextualised search and a reduction on administrative overheads.”

Mike Beresford, MD at Randstad Technologies and Digital in the UK explains their experience with DaXtra CV Parsing technology.

"I've always found the quality of the data capture to be accurate. It enables our consultants to run searches based on accurate information so they can find the best candidates quickly so I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Daxtra."

Steve Weston, CIO at HAYS talks about why they need CV Parsing Software and why they chose Daxtra as a supplier.

“The way that Daxtra can take data, from the candidate source in multi languages, transform that, tag that, make it searchable and place it in the database in less than 2 minutes from inception to end… In my opinion you can’t find a product in the marketplace today that can do that in a better way.”

For a multinational, multilingual, multi-sector organisation, the recruitment software needs of Hudson are broad and vast. A Top 100 recruiter with worldwide revenues of $1.18 billion, to continue to compete in our fast-paced sector, Hudson needed a product that could acquire and process CVs very reliably and in minimal time.
