HRCap Expands CRM Service to More U.S. Clients

Since the launch of the HRCap CRM service (http://crm.hrcap.com) back in September 2016, selected clients have been able to access and take full advantage of our Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system. Our CRM system provides an at-a-glance comprehensive look at the status of all cases and automatically suggests best-fit candidates who may be of strong interest to our clients. Our clients can easily view the most up-to-date information on each case, make online inquiries on the pending cases, and request further information on our recommended candidates.


Due to the positive feedback we received from many of our clients, we have decided to expand the service to many more U.S. clients this year. We strongly believe that our CRM system will be vital to improving our services and deepening our relationships with valued clients, all the while contributing to our client’s organizational growth and business success as well. Please feel free to reach out if your organization is interested in taking advantage of our CRM system as well. Our success is our candidate’s and client’s success.
