Finding and hiring new employees is a complex and multi—step process that requires a clear organization. In Bitrix24, you can set up a recruitment funnel and maintain a candidate database in the system.

  • Maintaining a database of candidates — HRM stores the data of applicants, their resumes, contacts, test results and interviews. You can add notes to keep track of the details of communication with each candidate.  
  • Setting up a recruitment funnel — the system allows you to divide the process into stages (for example, "Resume received", "Initial interview", "Test assignment", "Final interview"), so that HR specialists can easily control which stage each candidate is at.
  • Automatic notifications — when a candidate moves to a new stage, the system can automatically notify the recruiter, send letters to applicants, or assign interview tasks.  

2. Onboarding

After a successful hire, it is important to help the newcomer quickly adapt to the company. Automated onboarding in Bitrix24 facilitates this process.

  • Automatic assignment of tasks — tasks are automatically created for a new employee immediately after starting work: to study the regulations, get acquainted with the corporate culture, and complete training.

5. Engagement and communication

An open and transparent corporate environment increases employee motivation and promotes the development of the company's culture.

  • A social network for employees is an opportunity to like, comment on news, post posts and congratulate colleagues.
  • Gamification — you can implement game elements (such as ratings, awards, and achievements) to increase staff engagement.  

6. Control of working hours
