CREST - CSPC Recruitment Evaluation, Scoring & Tracking

A modern, end-to-end recruitment platform for the Camarines Sur Polytechnic Colleges. Applicants sign in with Google, apply online and follow every stage of their application, while HR, the evaluation panel and the College President work on connected pages — from document screening and examinations to interviews, final rankings and the hiring decision.

System Overview

CREST centralizes the full hiring lifecycle for CSPC. It replaces fragmented manual workflows with a transparent, role-based, and trackable process from job posting to the College President's hiring decision.

Unified Recruitment Workflow
100%
Digital Application Tracking
Coverage: Job posting and panel assignment, online applications with document uploads and the Initial Assessment Matrix, scheduled document screening and shortlisting, written and work sample (practical) examinations, panel interviews, the Comparative Assessment Matrix and final rankings, the College President's hiring decision, official notices by email, text message and in-app notification, the Personal Data Sheet (CS Form No. 212), and progress monitoring.

Core Modules

Each module is designed to reduce processing time, improve consistency, and support evidence-based hiring decisions.

Job Posting

Create and publish vacancies with deadlines, place of assignment, qualification standards, document requirements and the assigned evaluation panel. Applicants whose qualifications fit a new posting are notified that they can apply.

Screening and Shortlisting

Once a posting closes and its shortlisting is scheduled, HR and the assigned panel verify each applicant's documents against the qualification standards and mark them Qualified or Not Qualified.

Exam Management

HR schedules the written and work sample (practical) examinations, sends each qualified applicant a Notice to Qualified Applicant, and encodes the grades against the set passing scores.

Interview Scoring

Applicants who pass the examination are scheduled for a panel interview. The panel reviews their documents, and the panel chair records the Behavioral Event Interview score.

Final Ranking

The Comparative Assessment Matrix (CSPC-F-HR-80) totals the written exam, work sample, behavioral interview and performance rating, ranks the candidates, and is published to the College President.

Hiring Decision

The College President reviews the published rankings, may schedule a final interview, and appoints the selected candidates for each vacancy.

Notices and Notifications

The office's official letters — Notice to Qualified Applicant, Notice to Non-Qualified Applicant and Letters of Information — are sent by email, text message and in-app notification, each with its delivery status.

Applicant Self-Service

Applicants apply online, upload their requirements, fill in the Initial Assessment Matrix and their Personal Data Sheet (CS Form No. 212), and follow each application in My Applications.

Audit and Monitoring

Audit logs, recruitment reports, role-specific dashboards and schedule calendars (with Google Calendar sync) keep every step visible and accountable.

Recruitment Workflow

The current implementation follows this standard order across the system modules.

1
Publish & Apply

HR publishes the vacancy; applicants submit their documents and Initial Assessment Matrix before the deadline.

2
Document Screening

After the posting closes, HR and the panel verify the documents and mark each applicant Qualified or Not Qualified.

3
Examination

Qualified applicants receive their exam schedule; HR encodes the written and work sample grades.

4
Interview

Applicants who pass are interviewed by the panel, which records the behavioral interview score.

5
Final Ranking

Ratings are consolidated in the Comparative Assessment Matrix, ranked and published to the President.

6
Hiring Decision

The College President appoints the selected candidates; the others receive a Letter of Information.
