Entertainment

 

Everybody wants to be a star

As Andy Warhol said, "In the future, everyone will be famous for fifteen minutes." And what better way to ensure you get your piece of stardom then by working in the Entertainment industry? From music, movies and TV, to gaming and resorts, this widely varied industry covers a broad range of careers and sectors.

It's also a haven for those with stars in their eyes and big personalities. Whether behind the camera, shining in the spotlight or anything in between, those attracted to this industry want more than the average career. And they need more than the average campaign to get their attention. That's why at Hodes, our solutions for recruiting this sometimes jaded group of professionals go beyond the traditional to include innovative campaigns that will really turn heads.

If you build it, they will come - an ATS success story

Harrah's Entertainment operates 26 casinos in the U.S. With 6,000 hires per year and growing, the company was finding its existing applicant tracking system too limited to meet its needs. A friendly application process and best-in-class experience for walk-in candidates was also essential.

After assessing the situation, our team proposed the Hodes iQ Standard Edition, along with dedicated websites for employment opportunities at harrahs.com, internal mobility, high potential employees and walk-in kiosks. The application process at the kiosks was particularly important--it needed to be user-friendly for non-computer users, and easy to read and follow.

With the help of Hodes iQ, Harrah's was able to build a better system that not only brought in the candidates, it also allowed the company's recruiters to expand their sourcing options and quickly track candidates through the hiring process.
