About AWT Bavaria
AWT Bavaria operates in the competitive automotive industry, managing iconic brands like Aston Martin and BMW. With 450+ employees across multiple locations, they were determined to break away from outdated management and create an agile, European-standard workplace.
Team’s challenges
Before partnering with PeopleForce, AWT Bavaria faced several challenges across their HR processes, such as:
Recruitment bottlenecks
The hiring process relied on manual tracking and email correspondence, leading to inefficiencies and delays.
Unstructured onboarding
The lack of a proper onboarding process with clear instructions and examples led to confusion and high dropout rates during probation.
Lack of performance management
Performance reviews were conducted manually and on paper, resulting in a poor employee experience and a process that was not aligned with the sustainability goals.
Limited transparency
Employees criticized the organization for a lack of open communication, especially under previous management.
Solutions found in partnership with PeopleForce
Recruitment management transformation
Thanks to the job multiposting feature, recruiters can now post vacancies across 3000+ job sites in one single click. With PeopleForce’s scorecards, candidate evaluations are more transparent. Meanwhile, automated recruitment pipeline allows recruiters to easily manage candidate statuses, schedule interviews, and move candidates through the pipeline without delays.
Onboarding process revamp
HRs used PeopleForce to design customized onboarding plans. Then, scheduled two-week and mid-probation evaluations helped managers track employee progress and satisfaction. And finally, feedback surveys provided a clear picture of team dynamics and flagged any areas for improvement.
Performance reviews and feedback culture improvements
PeopleForce allowed AWT Bavaria to tailor evaluations to different roles, ensuring fairness and relevance. The team utilized PeopleForce’s assessment tools to foster a culture of regular communication. Employees now see feedback as a growth opportunity rather than a critique. The to-do management feature enabled managers to set clear development goals for employees needing improvement, driving progress and accountability.
Signing documents with eSignature in PeopleForce
The bulk functionality allowed entities to create documents and add them to employee profiles. The eSignature feature allowed for a transition away from requiring physical presence to sign documents, a crucial improvement for remote work. This not only reduced paper usage but also saved time for the teams, as employees no longer had to travel to the office to sign documents.
"PeopleForce’s flexibility and user-friendliness have made it the centerpiece of our HR strategy. It’s not just a tool; it’s a partner in our growth."
