Case Study: Maxar accelerates virtual recruiting and improves talent pipelines with Brazen

Maxar turns to virtual recruiting for hard-to-find talent

Maxar, a space technology company, faced a challenge when the pandemic halted in-person recruiting, threatening its ability to hire for high-volume roles and connect with hard-to-find talent like cleared DevOps engineers. To maintain their talent pipeline and improve diversity, particularly for their intern program, they turned to the vendor Brazen and its virtual recruiting platform.

Using Brazen's virtual event solution, Maxar efficiently fostered diverse candidate pools and targeted niche talent markets. The results were significant: the company filled roles more quickly, with one event achieving a 78% attendance rate and nearly half of the candidates moving forward to interviews. Brazen's platform also improved internal efficiency, allowing Maxar to provide strong support to hiring managers and successfully integrate virtual recruiting into their long-term talent strategy.
