During the first one year of founding, this Startup hired through referrals, freelancers and job ads. The non-traditional approaches proved to be unreliable and inconsistent.

Approach:

Han RPO conducted a systematic client analysis and listed down the objectives and priority areas to be addressed. A custom RPO solution was proposed and implemented to help the Startup meet its talent demands. This included an employer pitch to attract passive candidates. A RPO team led by a RPO manager drove a dedicated campaign. The team comprised of recruiters certified in hiring for digital marketing startups. Han RPO advised on a number of factors, including compensation, to ensure that the Startup was strategically positioned to attract talent.

Outcome :

Han RPO was successfully able to help the Startup doubled its headcount in 90 days. As a result, the Startup was able to significantly reduce the cost and time to hire. The Startup was that it was able to retain its client projects with the new team in place. An employer pitch was in place to attract passive candidates.
