Placement Management System

By implementing a separate Placement Management system campus recruitment can move from a disjointed, manual process to a strategic plus point for the college. Institutions also save time and decrease error as student jobs can be placed with a single database that then manages all aspects of the matching, interview, and offer process. Analytics and transparency create increased accountability (e.g. for accrediting bodies), and richer student profiles with integrated LMS data lead to better matching and higher placement rates. We have established a structured methodology to be used in creating such a system: specifying requirements, research on available solutions, system architecture proposal and consideration for other implementation issues (security, integration, scalability). Diagrams (architecture and ER) and tables of features/effort support the design. Vendors supply most of these components ready to use but an institution may decide on a closed source or open-source system to satisfy its needs. In all these instances careful planning, like the one shown, has been critical. To sum up, good PMS has less paperwork but positive results. The gains for the student (better careers advice), the recruiter (checked applicants) and the university (good reputation and statistics) far outweigh the cost of developing an updated, comprehensive placement portal.
