“I have always appreciated the work that you do on a daily basis to make EdZapp a better application that meets the needs of many different type of districts, yet still in a personal way to meet the needs of each individual district.”
– Teri Butler, Director of Human Resources, North Santiam School District
About Us
EdZapp is an organization dedicated to the transformation of educator recruiting and hiring. To this end, we provide value-adding technologies, services and data to optimize the effectiveness of all parties involved: employers, job-seekers, policy-makers, and advisors.
For job-seekers, EdZapp provides a way to organize the job search and application process and to proactively seek out employers who match their preferences. For employers, EdZapp provides a flexible way to recruit, screen, and hire qualified educators. EdZapp currently serves over 250 districts across 10 U.S. states and is the statewide teacher application standard for Oregon.
EdZapp was founded in 2004, and is led by T.J. Chandler, who has worked with school district HR offices of all sizes and varieties, including the the New York City Department of Education. The EdZapp team consists of:
- Experienced Technologists who manage the hosting infrastructure, data architecture, and user interface,
- Seasoned HR Professionals with real-world experience who manage the product development and training functions, and
- Passionate Educators who manage the administration and marketing of the organization.
The online technology of EdZapp now provides a unique, “all-in-one” recruiting and hiring service that eliminates paperwork, accelerates business processes, and reduces costs. Most importantly, it improves the quality of education by improving teacher recruitment, selection, and placement.
NOT a software company…
EdZapp is all about improving HR processes, and more specifically, the recruiting-through-hire process. We don’t spend our time thinking about classroom scheduling or textbook tracking…but we spend a LOT of time thinking about putting the right teachers in the classrooms with those textbooks. That’s what we do, it’s all we do, and our team is the best at what we do.
Our Approach
We understand that what matters most is not how many applications you receive for a job, but that you find and hire the candidate who is the best fit for your position and your district.
That’s why EdZapp provides fully-customizable services for school districts and private schools—from recruiting and applicant tracking through hiring. You won’t have to wait for applicants to find you because EdZapp is the only full-featured applicant tracking system that is also a national recruiting database—with more than one million unique candidates visiting EdZapp every year.
Flexible, Customizable, Economical
Because school districts and private schools don’t think or work alike, EdZapp provides a variety of services for affordable prices. You can post jobs for free, purchase standard services such as recruiting and applicant tracking a la carte, or consult with us about your specific needs so we can develop a customized, full-featured (or not) package for your school or district. You’ll be surprised how a minimal investment in EdZapp hiring services can result in maximum time and cost savings.
Paperless
EdZapp is also the only system that completely eliminates paperwork—so you can streamline your recruiting and hiring processes to save time and money. If you still have a scanner on your desk, you’re not “Truly Paperless.” Once you use EdZapp, you won’t need your scanner anymore. We’ll even buy your scanner from you when you sign up with EdZapp!
