The California State University system has implemented a new system-wide recruitment platform called CHRS Recruiting. CHRS Recruiting is built on a software platform called PageUp. This new system will allow our campus to streamline our recruitment and onboarding processes. Discover the benefits of CHRS Recruiting in the video below.

Benefits of CHRS Recruiting

  • Approvals move faster without waiting for paper forms to be routed around, thanks to electronic workflows.
  • Manual workload is decreased since data will automatically upload from PeopleSoft, rather than doing double entry.
  • Applying for a job is easier and more attractive with features such as resume parsing and application via mobile devices.
  • Information is captured and conveniently accessible since all recruiting data is tracked within the system, rather than using outside tools such as Excel.
  • Hiring effectiveness is improved through easy-to-understand analytics.
  • Onboarding new employees is streamlined by using a centralized system including electronic checklists to track the onboarding process.
  • Systemwide reporting is easier and faster thanks to a common system.
  • Implementing CHRS Recruiting was a prerequisite to implementing the larger CHRS project as part of wave 3 that commenced in April 2023.
  • One of the high-level goals for this project was that all campuses are now able to share HR resources.
