Impact of COVID-19
Leveraging CEIPAL’s advanced tech, Managed Staffing actually increased their number of
submissions during the COVID-19 crisis, transitioning to the healthcare space and responding
to clients’ rapid demand for temperature screeners and other COVID-19 related needs.
As a result, Managed Staffing grew as a firm during COVID-19 by:
• ATS Ecosystem. CEIPAL’s cloud-based ATS, along with its robust recruitment ecosystem,
enabled Managed Staffing to seamlessly transition to work-from-home.
• Business Intelligence. Because Managed Staffing had never tested a work-from-home
model before, the senior management wanted to track submission numbers, interviews, and
overall placements closely. CEIPAL’s Business Intelligence capabilities were crucial in
accomplishing this.
• Constant Innovations. Finally, CEIPAL’s constant innovation continues to help the team
succeed, even when unprecedented problems arise. For example, Managed Staffing quickly
realized that many clients were so desperate for talent that they stopped interviewing
candidates. That meant more pressure than ever was on their team to provide candidates
that fit with their client’s needs.

Because the transition to WFH was so instant, Managed Staffing was able to keep their
recruiters busy and combat the downturn in hiring by expanding to the healthcare industry.
Quickly they provided temperature screeners and other COVID related services to their current
clients. And soon, they were branching out to new clients as well. As a result, more submissions
than their pre-COVID quarters.

With CEIPAL, Managed Staffing was able to increase submissions and reduce expenses during
one of the most uncertain times in the recruitment industry. CEIPAL’s adaptable and advanced
platform was their trusted partner throughout the entire process, with stellar results.
