Alliance Automotive Group

The Alliance Automotive Group was founded in 1998. Initially a network of 2 branches distributing vehicle components, the business has now grown to over 200 locations nationwide, servicing the automotive aftermarket with parts and accessories.

Challenge

As a large group, spanning five individual entities that had grown organically, Alliance Automotive’s talent team was looking for an applicant tracking system to unify processes and centralise the management and control of recruitment activity. As a growing organisation, they needed a system that would evolve alongside their practices, but also be an intuitive platform that all hiring managers could easily utilise.

Solution

Alliance Automotive collaborated with networx for a full digital transformation of their recruitment workflow; streamlining processes into one centralised system. With a newly designed system, Alliance Automotive has aligned recruitment processes across all entities, with the flexibility to address the nuances and requirements of each individual entity.

The complex implementation built a strong partnership between Alliance Automotive and networx, devising processes, automated workflows and user control settings to maximise efficiencies and to provide a new level of operational transparency across the organisation. With improved reporting, there is clear accountability across hiring managers and the talent team, and greater insight into candidate behaviour, trends, and diversity reporting.

With a new digital onboarding experience, the candidate journey is unified and consistently branded. The integrated Right to Work Checks, automated notifications and enforced processes, ensure all candidates receive the attention they deserve. This is driving greater engagement from candidates throughout the process and supporting Alliance Automotive to be an employer of choice.

The implementation of networx ATS has helped Alliance Automotive to reduce agency reliance and expenditure, and also save time throughout the entire recruitment process, with the introduction of automation. The system continues to evolve alongside the requirements of Alliance Automotive and remains flexible and intuitive for users.

Client comment

Having worked with networx across a wide number of organisations from SMEs to large national with over 10,000 employees, I have a great understanding of how adaptable and flexible the networx ATS can be for businesses. With streamlined integrations, the networx Network talent pool which drives a great diverse traffic of relevant candidates, and a supportive account management team, I think networx could work for any organisation no matter the size or sector.

At Alliance Automotive, networx has created a heavily bespoke system that works incredibly well. With regular updates and a clear technology roadmap, their software is always evolving to suit new demands and challenges too.

Compared with other solutions, it may not be the cheapest but the networx ATS offers so much more than others on the market. The team is fantastic and immensely patient, pioneering processes for our needs. It’s great to work with a company that listens and truly collaborates in partnership.
