Snap Bids

[KSUViolet06]

^^^^That's funny you say that because every other time someone doesn't get the desired result from recruitment, the urban legend is like "there was a computer glitch."

What more knowledgeable people know is that ICS does not "glitch." Anything that goes wrong with ICS is 99% of the time, a "user error" issue.

And even then, unless you've NEVER used ICS in your LIFE, the likelihood of making a catastrophic mistake (i.e. one that results in someone either not being matched, being released from a chapter, etc.) is VERY low. In most recruitments, the invite issuance and bid matching phases are generally checked, rechecked, and checked again for accuracy BY ACTUAL HUMANS before anything goes to the PXs to get to the PNMs. No one is pushing "ok" for matching/issuance of invite lists until everything has been checked over by a few sets of eyes.

Ex: At a HUGE recruitment like somewhere in the SEC, you can bet that there is not just ONE person dealing with ICS. There are "checks and balances" to the point that it's almost overkill because no one wants to be the girl who managed to input something incorrectly. Someone is checking lists, then letting someone else double check the settings, then letting someone else check (and ask if something seems incorrect - like you think you think XYZ may have the wrong Sarah Smith on their cut list), then checking again before they pull the trigger to issue any invites, match bids, anything.
