Engage potential hires with beautiful career sites and media-rich job adverts and build talent networks of future hires, all with a fully mobile-optimised, accessible and inclusive candidate experience.
From vacancy approval, creating new posts, advertising and assessment, through to offers, compliance checks and onboarding (integrated into ESR), all using a single, intuitive leading-edge platform.
All of this is underpinned with powerful and flexible management information and reporting tools, to provide insights on all aspects of your recruitment.
We work with a range of NHS organisations, and we’re proud of the positive feedback we get from our clients. In the words of Jay Patel – Strategic Resourcing Manager at NHS Leicestershire Partnership Trust:
“Overall, having everything be Electronic Forms has been a game-changer already. Consolidating multiple systems and bringing recruitment online into one system has been revolutionary so far.
We’re seeing true transformation happening in real-time and Jobtrain is allowing us to do that. The flexibility of the system, the customisation, it’s all been transformational. You and your team’s passion and desire to work with us has really came across.”
We’re really proud of the NHS organisations we already work with – here’s just a small selection of them.
We’ve worked with NHS organisations for over 10 years and fully understand their needs and demands. Our applicant tracking system is integrated with NHS Jobs and ESR (Electronic Staff Record). These integrations facilitate (for the first time), the seamless ‘end to end’ management of NHS hiring from raising new vacancies and advertising posts, all the way through to offer, onboarding and creating new hires in ESR.
Connect your NHS systems
to your recruitment processes
Our ATS is available to purchase through G-Cloud and your usual tender procurement services.
Our suite of assessment tools cover every aspect of assessing your potential hires. Create an unlimited number of tailored application and assessment forms yourself, without any additional charges for the wide variety of roles that make up your NHS Trust.
Application forms support a two-stage process so you only need to collect the necessary information at the first stage, improving the candidate experience and increasing conversions. Our fully flexible assessment forms can cover everything from simple killer questions to sophisticated scored forms with images and even timed questions.
Transform your assessment processes
For shortlisting, telephone screening and shortlisting forms are all available in our applicant tracking system. We offer collaborative panel and anonymous shortlisting to remove unconscious bias from the selection process too. Our recruiting software can even connect with your 3rd party online testing tools.
When it comes to interviewing, our self-service interview booking feature makes arranging and managing them a breeze.
Are you finding your onboarding processes are taking too long and you’re losing new hires in the process?
Reduce candidate drop-out, decrease your time to onboard to as little as 24 hours and save on expensive bank and agency workers with our onboarding and compliance platform.
From doctors and nurses, to healthcare assistants, clerical officers and cleaners, when final interviews are complete and you’ve found your perfect candidate, you want to bring them on board as quickly as possible. Our recruitment software has all the features you need to manage this with ease.
Take up references, manage offers, contracts, forms, complete compliance checks whilst keeping them informed and engaged until their first day with our Onboarding and Welcome Hub features, all of which are integrated into ESR in real-time.
New hires will be informed, engaged and raring to go ahead of their first day. Welcoming the perfect candidate has never been easier!
Compliance, Right to Work and DBS checks can be overwhelming with many moving parts to manage. The regulations of the CQC, the GMC and the NMC are regularly changing, so you need a process that is up to date. Our applicant tracking system can do just this.
From our recruitment system, candidates can complete ID verification and Right to Work checks online using our digital certified tool. Online Disclosure applications can be requested and managed within Jobtrain too - we integrate with First Advantage – the specialist DBS and compliance checking provider.
Our NHS recruitment software comes with powerful and flexible reporting to enable you to keep track of every element of your hiring activity at your fingertips.
Our platform provide insights dashboards, a full suite of standard reports as well as an insights and report builder platform.
Through our wealth of experience of working with the NHS, we provide flexible real-time data and trend analysis with NHS specific reports including:
All reports can be exported, distributed simply and even automated.
On top of this, we also offer all clients specialist support from our in-house Talent Intelligence team.
The NHS recruits a large number of roles which can often be very similar, but are for different locations and areas of specialism. Perhaps you have a nursing campaign where candidates will have preferences like children’s services, or a location such as one of your hospitals.
Candidates can mark their preferred choices at the point of application and recruiters can use this information to filter based on these preferences. This aids the task of shortlisting on volume campaigns (or often called Generic, Cohort, or even Bulk campaigns). This can heavily streamline the shortlisting and interview processes, and improve your candidate experience tenfold!
NHS Scotland is the second-largest sector employer in the UK, with over 163,000 employees. The implementation of our applicant tracking system was key to supporting their plan and the new recruitment system formed part of the process standardisation for NHS Scotland.
“We felt we needed to balance the capability of the system we chose with the capability to work effectively with NHSS in delivering our specific needs. The time to hire dropped by 31%. That saved nearly a month per hire!”
– Neil Warbrick – Programme Director
