Case Study: Leading Healthcare Medical Technology Firm cuts recruitment costs and time-to-fill with AgileOne RPO

Medical technology firm utilizes RPO program to “stop the bleeding” and save $10 million in recruitment costs

Leading Healthcare Medical Technology Firm, a global pioneer in medical technology, was struggling with recruiting demand that was 50% higher than capacity, along with inefficient internal processes, 120+ day time-to-fill for critical engineering and R&D roles, and an average cost per hire of $7,000. The company turned to AgileOne for an end-to-end recruitment process outsourcing (RPO) solution to help address its hard-to-fill, niche talent needs.

AgileOne redesigned workflows, standardized processes across all U.S. and Puerto Rico locations, and added weekly reporting, targeted sourcing, email campaigns, school outreach, and professional association engagement to strengthen the talent pipeline. As a result, the program saved more than $10 million in recruitment costs in just over 18 months, cut cost per hire by 65% in the first nine months, reduced time to fill to 63 days, and filled 1,612 positions in the first 11 months with strong hiring manager and candidate satisfaction scores.
