The Client
Christian Living Communities (CLC), a non-profit senior living organization, has served the South Denver metropolitan area since 1972. With the implementation of Click Boarding, their team has reduced the amount of administrative work for their hiring teams.
- Total Employees: 850
- Hiring Trends: 16% YoY

The Challenge
- Complex preboarding process
- Custom data capture fields
- Manual HR processes
- Time to recruit
When Christian Living Community (CLC) came to Click Boarding, they faced challenges related to compliance issues with their Colorado Adult Protective Services (CAPS) forms, inefficiencies in the preboarding process, and time-consuming manual new hire activities that took up time for their talent acquisition teams. Seeking to enhance their operations, CLC implemented a customized form solution to expedite these processes.
- Compliance Gaps with CAPS Forms: Crucial for regulatory adherence and reporting, the CAPS forms often lead to gaps in information or inaccuracies. Because this is a highly intricate form required before day one, talent acquisition was stuck going back to candidates multiple times to ask for revisions before the form could be submitted.
- Inefficient Preboarding Process: Recruiters manually stepped in to help the forms process, diverting their attention from strategic recruitment efforts.
- Manual Processes in HR Team Meetings: Discussions in HR team meetings often revolved around streamlining forms for recruits, reflecting the ongoing challenges posed by manual work processes.
- Consistency between Locations: With 11 locations, a simple and unified onboarding process was important to improve efficiency during recruiting.
