The Business Need

A Europe-based recruiting agency could not find their ideal candidates even though they spent a quality amount of time and resources. They came with a pressing need to aggregate and build high-quality talents to empower their manpower.

Challenges

• The client’s database was outdated, making it difficult to match candidates with current job market demands.
• Sourcing high-quality talent across multiple locations was time-consuming and inefficient.
• Manual data aggregation led to gaps in candidate profiling, slowing down the hiring process.

Solution

The client’s existing database was not updated to the latest job seekers. We had to first refresh those data and aggregate other profiles across various locations. Xtract.io adopted an automated method to extract prospective job seekers based on their skills, expertise, designation, and location. It was then merged with the client’s database to have a consolidated talent pool.

Results

The data-driven candidate profiling helped the client shorten their hiring process from 8 months to 45 days. They were able to target their hiring efforts like recruitment, marketing campaigns and branding. Moreover, the quality of the candidates aggregated was significantly higher than those interviewed before.
