Project scope
What is the main goal for this project?

As a startup, Vital Staffing is more than just a staffing agency – we are champions of diversity and inclusion in the tech industry. With a mission to connect opportunities in tech to underserved communities, we are dedicated to empowering individuals of all backgrounds to thrive in their careers. Our company size is 1-10 employees. However, we have had some challenges recruiting top-quality talent for our current client contract due to manpower and I'm looking for ways to optimize my processes: automate any redundant tasks and have an SOP in place for hiring.



This project will involve several different steps for the students, including:


  • Documenting the current state of our staff and volunteer recruitment process, from when the resource need is identified to when the position is filled.
  • Creating visualizations such as data flow diagrams to identify strengths and pain points in our recruitment process.
  • Assessing our current process and making recommendations for improvements and efficiencies such as better use of automation with Zapier, our CRM and outreach
  • Documenting and mapping a target state process.
  • Suggesting feedback mechanisms to gather input from staff, volunteers, and applicants.
What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?

By the end of the project, students should demonstrate:.

  • Assessment of the current process and recommendations for improvements
  • Documentation of a target state process



Final deliverables should include.

  • A final report
  • A Standard Operating Procedure for the optimized recruitment process.
How will you support learners in completing the project?

Students will connect directly with us for mentorship throughout the project. We will be able to provide answers to questions such as:

  • Our recruitment practices
  • Input on choices, problems or anything else the students might encounter.
What skills or technologies will help learners to complete the project?

To complete this project, students can self-teach, but it is beneficial to be familiar with:

  • Recruitment processes


Again, students can complete this project without any of the prior knowledge listed here. Students will be expected to research and learn more about the above as the project goes along.
