Mumbai based Chemspec is India’s leading manufacturer of various bulk drugs intermediates and personal care ingredients. Established in 1978, the company has carved a strong global presence as one of the top suppliers of pharmaceutical intermediates and specialty chemicals. Their unrelenting growth has been made possible through continuous investment in technological upgradation and process optimization. Chemspec intends to achieve an industry leading position through development of wide portfolio of related products in global market.

In the words of Rajendra Tulaskar, Senior Manager HR at Chemspec Chemicals Private Limited, “We were not using any kind of automation tool before RMS and thus we were facing a lot of difficulty in managing our overall recruitment. Whether it was maintaining a centralized CV database, shortlisting the right profile from a heap of CVs, communicating and following up with candidates or keeping a track on the status of applications, every hiring activity was happening manually. This made the entire process very time consuming & cumbersome, resulting in low recruiter productivity and speed of hiring.

In order to fulfill its vision to become a global player in the industry, Chemspec chose to move away from the existing manual methods of recruitment to an advanced recruitment management system, which could help them automate their entire recruitment process with ease.
RMS’ smart, yet user-friendly resume screening and shortlisting technology along with a robust communication module could provide Chemspec’s recruitment process with the much required shot in the arm. It took just a couple of demo sessions for Rajendra to decide on RMS. As Rajendra says, “We took a few demos and found RMS to be a very good tool, meeting all our requirements. So we decided to go ahead with it.”

Time Saver like No Other

The biggest benefit of RMS for Chemspec Chemicals clearly has been its time saving capabilities. Loaded with a number of useful features, RMS has provided much needed speed to the hiring process. As Rajendra explains, “The automated tool has really sped up the entire process. Most features are good. Its one-stop sourcing, centralized CV database, advanced search that allows us to sort CVs faster and the mass mailing options that allow us to reach out to multiple candidates quickly are extremely useful. It’s a really good time saving tool.”

Closure Rate Gets Better

RMS has also helped Chemspec close more positions. As Rajendra says, “Our productivity has definitely increased. We are quite satisfied with the profiles that we get and we are able to do more closures.”
“Overall, RMS is a good tool to have. It’s definitely time-saving,” says Rajendra in his concluding remarks.
