Human capital management solutions provider StepStone has announced that travel firm TUI has implemented its e-recruitment and onboarding solution to support recruitment across its business in the UK and Ireland.

The platform will enabe TUI to cut the time from job offer to contract from three weeks to 48 hours and slash recruitment costs by 50%. Since November, TUI UK & Ireland has managed over 22,000 applications through StepStone’s e-recruitment solution.

Matthew Parker, managing director of StepStone Solutions, says: “Even in a downturn companies need to develop their employer brand and enhance the candidate experience to secure the best talent. TUI has shown that having the right recruitment technology pays dividends in attracting great staff and strengthening TUI as a key player in the leisure and tourism sector.

“We’re excited to be involved in TUI’s intensive rebranding programme and helping them cut recruitment costs and shorten hiring cycles.”
