Ricker's and Sysdine

JOHNSON CITY, Tennessee -- Silver Creek Technologies, LLC has announced that Ricker Oil Company of Anderson, Indiana, a privately-held company with 30  convenience store locations, has chosen Silver Creek's Web-based Sysdine PRM solutions for the management of its people recruiting and hiring activities.  Ricker's has now completed the implementation of Sysdine in all locations.

Ricker's convenience stores, located in Northeastern and Central Indiana, offer a wide selection of food and beverage products inside their clean, brightly lit and well organized stores. Ricker's convenience stores take great pride in their store employee's ability to make the shopping experience as convenient as possible, while providing quality products and services to its customers.

Ricker's founders, Jay & Nancy Ricker, have positioned the hiring and development of people as the centerpiece of their operating model and future growth plans. "At Ricker's, our customers are THE reason we are in business.  They pay our wages. If we fail to provide quality, friendly service to our customers, we will not be successful. Our customers expect and demand all team members to be professional, friendly and ethical in each and every transaction."

Now Ricker's job applicants begin with a Sysdine online employment application, launched from Ricker's website or from within a store, and designed precisely to Ricker's specifications.  Ricker's managers use the Sysdine Applicant Pool and Applicant Dashboard tools to organize and evaluate applications as they make hiring decisions.

So how's it working out?  Karen Mitchener, Human Resources Director for Ricker's, said that "Our managers are getting better quality and more current applicants with Sysdine."
