What's the most efficient way to add a candidate into the system? What is one benefit of doing this versus manually? (*explain*)
Email resume to USMPLAResumes@michaelpage.us.com with candidate's name in the subject line. The system will scan PRS for duplicates based on the email address in the resume, create a new profile if applicable, and pull data from the resume into the profile automatically. This process leaves no room for human error that could occur the manual way.
How do you enter a new contact in the system? (*explain*)
1) Check if the client is in the system
