As one of the largest not-for-profit health systems in the New York region, MJHS provides services ranging from home care, hospice, and rehabilitation, to long-term nursing care. Their commitment to providing care with compassion, respect and dignity is paramount to their hiring process. As an organization reliant on private funding to subsidize services not covered by insurance and government programs, every dollar spent recruiting in such a competitive industry matters.

MJHS hosts 4-6 strategic hiring events per year for key roles such as nursing and allied health. While these events had long proven successful for attracting interest at MJHS, the process was time consuming for the MJHS recruiting team. Candidates registered on the event website through a static form that submitted to a database for recruiter review. The MJHS recruiting team then emailed qualified candidates to invite them to the hiring event. Strategic partner, Buyer Talent Solutions, recognized an opportunity to automate some of this work and improve overall efficiency using Olivia by Paradox to assist with the screening and scheduling of candidates for these events.
