As Texas Children’s continues to expand our facilities and services to advance health care for children and women around the world, it is of the utmost importance for us to identify, recruit, engage and retain the best talent. To keep up with this expansive growth, Talent Acquisition is launching national recruitment strategies and investing in new and advanced technology. On Monday, April 18, Texas Children’s will be going live with a new applicant tracking system (ATS).

“These are exciting times for Texas Children’s as we are in the midst of unprecedented growth for the organization,” said Matt Perkins, assistant vice president of Talent Acquisition. “We need to continue to grow our community of team members who will unite, energize and inspire Texas Children’s with their infinite passion to deliver on our important mission.”

Powered by iCims, this ATS provides us with new technology, which works with PeopleSoft to enhance our current recruitment processes and experiences for both external and internal candidates, our hiring leaders as well as new hires.

“There are many features that will help us throughout the recruitment process in a more thoughtful approach that reflects Texas Children’s thought leadership as a premium health care employer,” Perkins said. “There are also social media components that will further engage prospective candidates.”

As part of the transition to this new system, five online webinars will be available to Hiring Leaders from Tuesday, March 29 to Thursday, March 31. Hiring Leaders will receive a separate communication from HR Communications with details about these training sessions and how to register.
