The Challenge
River Delta Consulting is a New Jersey, USA based leading recruitment services firm with offices in multiple locations in India specializing in IT recruitment for mid-size companies and government agencies (local, state, federal). As a firm that is exclusively focused on international placements they faced specific problems with their existing process:
- They had a high volume of resumes coming in not only from email but also from internal job portals among other sources that the team was finding difficult to manage and mine
- With a 100% international recruitment focus particularly US-based clientele demanding low turnaround time for resume submittals while maintaining high-quality standards, the team was repeated falling short on delivery time & quality
- Candidate acquisition costs were becoming unmanageable as there was a heavy dependence on international Job Portals like Monster & Dice for sourcing with unproductive usage such as same resume downloads by multiple team members
- Tracking of team’s work status on submittals, interview line-ups etc. was time-consuming and manual
Manan Panchal, Manager, River Delta Consulting, remarks “We knew that to meet the strict turn-around times and submission quality standards of our US clients we needed an automation solution which would deliver speed alongside quality”.
The company was, therefore, looking for a solution to implement a complete process framework for their recruitment workflow and a centralized team management platform.

- Centralized resume bank enabling concurrent access for the entire recruiting team
- Chrome Extension was configured to integrate their resume database with international job portals including Monster.com.

- Resume submittal & client feedback was fully automated using Candidate Submission feature that automatically generates Excel Candidate Tracker of the forwarded resumes and also includes the company branding in all resumes sent
The Results
The most immediate change that the team saw was the ease with which sourcing could be done from international job portals. Within a couple of months, targeted downloads from job boards had built a high-quality internal database and the team’s usage of portals was firmly under control.
“The solution delivered the quality and speed we wanted. I especially love its candidate communication platform that allows us to reach a huge number of prospects in a single click”
– Manan Panchal, Manager, River Delta Consulting

- The Resume aggregation combined with the high performance search engine has translated into anoverall 80% utilization of their internal resume data cutting down on their Job Portal costs
- Using Portal Connector for easy sourcing of candidates from international job portals has led to at least 60-70% cost reduction due to focused bulk downloads and elimination of unproductive usage due to same resume downloads and multiple logins
- The automated resume submittal & formatting along with full mail trail of all submissions has resulted in 100% time-saving and eliminated gaps in client communications
- There is now 100% automated tracking of resumes with status of candidates at every step of the recruitment journey available with single-click Live XL reports
