Passage of this motion will result in the provision of software to assist the city with hiring processes. Overview NEOGOV provides a subscription to Insight Hiring Management Software which assists many local government agencies with customized hiring processes. Interested candidates for city positions will be able to complete their applications on line and attach additional information such as a resume. Since the candidates log in via their email addresses, they'll be emailed information as we move through the process which will keep them more informed. The Human Resources Department will be provided with a more in depth process to evaluate candidate qualifications. Specific data fields will be required which will insure that we have all of the important information needed to evaluate the candidates. In addition, since the applications are computerized, they can be more easily viewed by the parties involved in the interview process. The agreement is priced through a cooperative purchasing agreement with LOGIS which enables us to get the best possible pricing. Primary Issues to Consider • Is the system difficult to use?
