If you want to automate the employee journey, tools like **BambooHR, Enboarder, and Jestor** are the main options — the choice depends on whether you seek a standard HR system or the flexibility to build bespoke hiring and culture processes.

### **First impressions matter**

### **What HR is looking to solve (Pain Points)**

- **Bureaucracy:** Collecting the same data multiple times.
