Update on KEEB Statistics

We continue to monitor the use and success of the new Kansas Education Employment Board (KEEB) as we look for ways to improve the service for both school districts and applicants. As of March, we have seen tremendous growth in visitors to KEEB and unique applications for positions. Below is a chart of monthly visitors comparing first time visitors to returning visitors. As you can see we have had a steady incline since December.



In addition, the number of individual applications submitted to job openings has doubled since December. An individual application is an application submitted for a specific job opening by a potential candidate. As the number of job openings posted have increased, so has the number of applications submitted.



These applications have resulted in 291 openings being filled to-date.



So far the data suggests we are on the right track. With over 965 openings in the state being advertised today, we will continue to focus on increasing traffic to these job openings, while providing the tools employers need to recruit and hire quality candidates.

New Updates to Data and Resume Submission

New updates have been made today to KEEB to allow you access to more manageable data and improve resume submission. Below is more information regarding these updates:

Manageable Data
You can now download a CSV Excel file of all applicant data for your positions to import into any HR management system you may use. This link is now located on the 'My Account' page and titled 'Export Applicants to CSV File'. If you have questions regarding how to utilize this feature please feel free to contact us or contact the vendor of your HR management system.

Resume Submission
Applicants are now unable to submit duplicate applications to positions they have already applied for. They are notified that their resume has already been used to apply for that particular position and asked to contact the position's contact person if they have updated their resume.

Both of these features are a result of feedback from district user's of KEEB. We appreciate the feedback you provide and please feel free to contact me with any suggestions you may have at kylie.stewart@greenbush.org.
