Case Study: Hilti achieves $264M projected savings and 30% faster time-to-hire with Beamery

How Hilti Plans To Save Over $260M by Finding the Right Talent, Faster

Hilti, a global construction and manufacturing company, faced the challenge of more than doubling hiring to 55,000 new employees by 2030 while overcoming regional data silos, poor visibility into skills, and limited engagement with passive talent. To build a proactive, data-driven Talent Acquisition strategy, Hilti selected Beamery and its talent platform (including the Universal Skills Platform, Talent CRM and Talent Marketing) as the central system to unify candidate data and support strategic workforce planning.

Beamery implemented a unified talent data ecosystem with AI-driven skills matching, talent nurturing, and global roll‑out across 120+ countries in 25+ languages, enabling recruiters to surface and engage the right candidates faster. The result: an 8x higher conversion rate for candidates found via Beamery, 20.9% of offers from candidates resurfaced through Beamery, and a projected 30% reduction in time-to-hire equating to roughly 240M CHF (~$264M) in savings. Beamery’s platform has therefore improved hiring efficiency, candidate quality, and strategic workforce insights for Hilti.
