In The Beginning …
Hopes, Dreams and MyFuture The Garden The Fall The Rise The Promise
Our PSP Hopes
Build a great interface displaying the College’s best side
Engage prospects Build relationships with recruiters Integration with EM Software Content rich environment Miraculously increase
applications and feed admissions
What we got
Luminis OOTB PACWA Extension
Landing Page Unsolicited Accounts Solicited Accounts New iPerson Attributes Targeted Announcements from EM
NO NEW CHANNELS NO FURTHER
INTEGRATION
RPE:Schedule a visit
allows prospect to schedule a time to talk or visit
prospect feels that the college / recruiter are close and they can schedule a personal talk / visit / phone call whenever they want to
little application thatstores a meeting time / phone call information
RPE: Talk To Me
interactive chat / IM system allowing real-time chat with recruiter (Mebo)
further encourage interaction with recruiter / foster relationship
build a new chat / IM function. The one that Luminis comes with in groups ... well ... sucks :)
RPE: Email Me
communication to recruiter a mechanism for a prospect to send a
message to their recruiter without an email client. This is not Luminis Mail, its a direct shot into the EM software that targets the prospect’s recruiter
encourage open communications with prospect
take the communications content and put it into the EM tables
RPE: My Communications
lists all email communication between the student and the recruiter
the communication information is already stored in the EM software, so expose it to the prospect. Allows the prospect to view communications without having to go to their email client to find an emailthey hopefully saved
communications / email information is already stored in EM tables, just expose that to the channel
RPE : Recruiter Profile
lists the prospect's recruiter information, name, email, extension, photo, bio, interests, blog, favorite links , etc
personify a recruiter, make them a friendly face, with interests, links, blog etc. Brings down the 'high up recruiter' persona and meets the prospect on common ground and interests takes away the intimidation
access personal data from Banner, and possibly store other meta data in some new EM tables.
Design
Get over the Luminis look Give it a look to ‘match’ Many customizations Announcements CSS
Post-It 2 over 3 layout
Dev / XLS hack Side ‘tabs’ Side Links
BSSA modification My Information My Recruiter Application checklist RSS content Crazy Role Logic
Custom Built
BSSA Connector
OOTB – same lack of vision The biggest problem for me was trying to figure
out how to get the 'BSSA' connector to work to connect to scripts other than the "Apply for Admission" screen.
I had to customize the "bwskalog" package and trick it into going somewhere else. (The baseline package is hard coded to go tothe "Apply for Admission" screen --- which we are not even using !!!)
Source code
CPIP Inline Frame
example
My Recruiter ?!?!??!!!

It is Worth Having?
Probably… but still up in the air Huge amount of work to make something

CHANGE Waiting to see the ROI Still feels like Luminis was an afterthought
