The following detail process map and modeling diagram using Business Process Modeling Notation (BPMN) has been developed and documented by a third-party consultant. The processes include:

i) Review all three processes of the Recruitment and Hiring (above) including the Detail Process Map for Recruiting and Hiring

ii) The company CEO has requested a written recommendation for a new online Recruitment and Hiring program as part of company's new HRIS. The new program will reduce the number of process steps (hand-offs) required to: Advertise; Screen and Interview Applicants; and Hire New Resources. The proposed changes should address improvements across all three process areas as part of an overall solution.
