With the software, the applicant electronically submits cover letters, resumes, transcripts, 
certifications and letters of recommendations. Because documents are electronic, the paper 
handling process is virtually eliminated, freeing up staff time.  Secondly, the received applications 
are instantly routed to the person who is responsible for filling the position.  For example, elementary 
teacher applications would be directly forwarded to the school principal for his or her immediate review.

 “Hiring in the education profession is a very seasonal practice and the window to access high quality 
candidates is relatively small. During this window, districts across the state are all trying to hire the 
best candidates before they commit to another district. One of the most powerful aspects of the 
Applitrack software is that it will give administrators immediate access to applications and put our 
district in a more competitive position to attain the best teachers. Applitrack will provide instant access 
to applications and Administrators like myself will be able to review them at any time from any computer 
with internet access,” said Jack Zamary, Principal of Middlebury Elementary School.

 The Region 15 Human Resources department has found the new system of applying very helpful and 
user friendly. 

 “Applicants are also responding well to this process,” said Ms. Marilyn Casolino, Personnel Records 
Manager. “I think most people are comfortable these days accessing the Internet, as well as uploading 
and scanning documents. Actually it is easier and neater than completing an application by hand. Also, 
having everything electronically stored eliminates the need for paper storage.”
