Education recruitment, connected

School recruitment software built for modern education

SnapIQ gives schools one place to advertise vacancies, receive direct applications, manage candidates, work with recruitment agencies, oversee placements and approve timesheets.

Instead of relying on disconnected emails, spreadsheets and separate systems, your recruitment activity can be managed through one education-focused platform.

Designed for schools, colleges, universities and education organisations.

Bring your recruitment process into one platform

Recruitment can quickly become difficult to manage when vacancies, applications, supplier conversations, candidate documents and timesheets are stored in different places.

SnapIQ brings these workflows together so education employers can see what is happening across their recruitment activity and manage each stage more efficiently.

The platform supports direct hiring as well as agency-led recruitment, allowing schools to use the recruitment model that works best for each vacancy.

Reduce the complexity of school recruitment

Disconnected applications

Applications arriving through multiple inboxes can make it difficult to maintain a clear and consistent recruitment process.

Manual candidate tracking

Spreadsheets and email folders provide limited visibility over candidate progress, notes and next actions.

Uncontrolled agency activity

Without a central supplier process, rates, candidate submissions and agency communication can become difficult to oversee.

Time-consuming timesheets

Manual timesheet collection and approval can create avoidable administration for schools and suppliers.

Limited recruitment visibility

When information is stored across several systems, it is difficult to understand vacancy progress, supplier activity and placements.

High recruitment administration

Repetitive tasks can take time away from candidate engagement, workforce planning and other important responsibilities.

The tools schools need to manage recruitment

SnapIQ connects the main parts of the education recruitment process without forcing schools to manage several separate platforms.
