Product Update: Instant Career Fair Check-In with Digital Profile Capture

Passport helps your team connect with more students, faster — without the data entry and stacks of paper resumes. See the new feature we just rolled out to streamline student and employer interactions at recruiting events.

The hardest part of working a career fair? Between the stacks of paper resumes, endless lines of candidates and hours of late night follow-up, it can be hard to choose just one thing.

Even as companies are adopting virtual and digital strategies, physical on-campus recruiting remains just as important — if not more important — than ever. Generation Z (current college students) is twice as likely as Millennials to find career fairs to be valuable during the job search, and they prefer face-to-face communication over digital. Employers find value in career fairs too, attending an average of 41 events each year.

For more than 10 years, Yello has been helping recruiting teams make events more effective through mobile-optimized career fair software. Now, we’re taking the next step to ensure you continue to boost ROI in the competitive labor market.

Welcome to the Modern Career Fair

Yello Passport empowers recruiting teams to make deeper student connections with digital profile capture. Students use a unique check-in code to instantly pre-populate their resume and key information — ensuring campus teams drive efficiency, collect accurate information and provide a better candidate experience.

With Passport, your team can:

  • Impress students with instant check-in. Collect student information in seconds with simplified digital profile capture.
  • Create more conversations, less data entry. Put students first, minimizing cumbersome paper resumes and data entry.
  • Pinpoint quality talent faster. Ensure top talent doesn’t get lost with real-time resume updates.
  • Access post-event student data. See student profiles, resumes and your evaluations — all delivered automatically post-event.

In our initial beta-testing, Passport reduced check-in times by more than 50%. Plus, students using Passport had their digital resume pre-loaded over 60% of the time — resulting in a better candidate experience, less data entry for recruiters and increased ROI at career fairs.

The best part? Passport is automatically enabled for all Yello Pro customers. For any questions on Yello Passport, please contact your Customer Success Manager.
