Recruiting Software for Small Trucking Companies
One recruiting software company is making it easier for trucking companies to find job candidates.
Tentstreet, which supplies services designed to help truck fleets manage human resources and driver pools, is offering a small business edition of its software. According to Truck News, the Basic Version, which is available free-of-charge, provides fleets with 200 or fewer trucks with basic functions needed to improve driver recruitment.
“Hundreds of thousands of drivers have used this technology, which was previously available only to the larger carriers,” Craig Johnson, chief executive officer of Tenstreet, said in the article. “Now anyone can use it, and we decided now would be a great time to make this available. That’s because we are doing this, in part, to support the smaller carriers that need a better way to recruit drivers but can’t afford it in this down economy.”
The new software includes: a customized application page with Tenstreet’s digitized signature feature that eliminates faxing and streamlines the collection of drug and alcohol releases and a gap detection feature that ensures completed applications include all necessary documentation, including employment history, safety history and other data validation.
“We know that there are literally thousands of fleets that are currently operating in North America with less than 200 trucks,” Johnson added in the article. “The Basic Version allows these fleets to take advantage of our transportation-specific technologies, which are similar to what some of our biggest customers like Prime, CRST, and FFE Transportation are using.”
Tenstreet also offers a Professional Version and Enterprise Version of its software.
