From Paper Trails to a Smarter Hiring Flow
Client Problem
The client was overwhelmed with a manual hiring process β collecting paper forms, reviewing scattered email applications, and scanning physical resumes. The system was slow, disorganized, and difficult to manage as the number of applicants grew. They needed a digital solution to make the process faster, easier, and centralized β without building a full app.
