You may have been using Bullhorn for quite a while, or when moving over to Bullhorn your data was previously imported from another system or your team has been inputting data in a certain way.
What ever the reason, there comes a time when you need to make mass updates to your Bullhorn data. Typical data updates our customers have us doing include
- creating new fields and copying data from another field to that one
- joining data from multiple fields together
- splitting data from one field to another
- replacing/removing company names in the description field
- removing data xx years old
The list goes on but the end result is the same. Making changes on a large scale with minimum impact and time cost.
Typical Bullhorn Mass Update Project
We all have data that we know isn’t great, but the time taken to fix spans days, weeks, even months. Not to mention the labour cost of going through each row correcting the data. It’s a mammoth task.
Step up our Bullhorn Mass Updating tool. Just let us know what needs fixing, we create scripts to perform this mass update on your Bullhorn data over night. The next morning, you have a perfect database waiting for you.
One of our larger customers created a spec to mass update their Bullhorn data prior to asking us whether we could create a solution for them.
Their solution: hiring two temporary members of staff for 6 months each (12 month total) to spend all day every day modifying Bullhorn data. Recruiters have to use two methods for maintaining data during this period.
Our solution: use our Bullhorn mass data tool to script the process. Running the tool over the weekend meant that by the time their whole office arrived to work Monday morning, all data was perfect and ready to go.
Team this with our Bullhorn Data Backup Tools to create a snapshot of the moment in time just before the mass update, incase you needed to look back for any reason.
