International School Testimonial: Okinawa Christian School International

About Okinawa Christian School International

Okinawa Christian School International (OCSI) was established in 1957 to provide Christ-centered education for the children of evangelical missionaries. Today, OCSI serves over 500 students from PreK through Grade 12. The school offers classes taught in English using an American-style curriculum that focuses on holistic development, is Biblically based, and recognises that all truth is God’s truth. The curriculum emphasises sharing the Gospel, discipleship, and fostering Biblical thinking and living.

We recently spoke with Megan Roe, Head of School at OCSI, about her experience using Schrole products and the impact they’ve had on the school’s hiring processes.

The challenge

When OCSI first connected with Schrole, they were seeking solutions to two key challenges: managing a growing volume of incoming applications and conducting thorough background checks more efficiently. As Megan explains, they needed a platform that could simplify these processes and improve visibility for leadership teams.

“We were looking for a solution that would help us manage incoming applications and for a  smoother way to run background checks.”

Choosing Schrole

OCSI chose Schrole for its online platform and ease of use. With Schrole’s suite of products—Connect, Verify, and Engage—the school gained access to an integrated system designed to meet the unique recruitment needs of international schools. Schrole’s intuitive interface and tailored features stood out as the perfect match for OCSI’s goals.

“We ultimately decided on Schrole due to the platform itself and how easy it is to use.”

Achieving results

Since adopting Schrole, OCSI has transformed its recruitment processes. Megan highlights that Schrole has provided “more streamlined processes” and increased visibility of candidates for the leadership team. The onboarding modules, in particular, have been invaluable in ensuring a smooth transition for new hires.

Schrole Connect has enabled OCSI to attract a broader pool of qualified candidates while simplifying application management with its Applicant Tracking System (ATS). The ATS has given leadership teams greater transparency, allowing them to collaborate more effectively in recruitment decisions.

Schrole Verify has streamlined the background-check process, providing peace of mind through thorough and reliable vetting. Meanwhile, Engage has enhanced communication and onboarding, ensuring a positive experience for candidates and new staff alike.

“With Schrole, our processes are much more streamlined and we’ve found the onboarding modules to be very helpful. As for the ATS, it’s given the leadership team far more visibility over candidates.”

Exceeding expectations

One standout benefit of working with Schrole has been the increased number of applicants. As Megan notes, this has helped OCSI broaden its talent pool and ensure they have access to the best candidates available. Additionally, the onboarding modules have proven to be a key feature in creating a seamless experience for new hires, setting them up for success from day one.
