Case Study: Grocery Delivery Service Company achieves 59% reduction in talent acquisition costs with Fountain

Fountain enables 59% decrease in talent acquisition costs for on-demand delivery service

Grocery Delivery Service Company, a national on-demand grocery delivery service operating in hundreds of markets and handling roughly 100,000 applications per month, faced severe hiring bottlenecks: applicants often sat idle between data collection and background checks, and manual screening became time- and cost-prohibitive as the business scaled. To solve this, the company turned to Fountain and its hiring platform—using Fountain’s workflow tools, integrations, and video screening features—to streamline and modernize talent acquisition.

Fountain helped by letting the team reorder stages with a drag-and-drop workflow editor, move data collection to the front of the funnel, use bulk edits and cloning for 350+ workflows, and integrate via API with Checkr so background checks run only after applicants are approved. Those changes delivered measurable results: a 59% reduction in talent acquisition cost, about $3.2 million saved in the last year, faster onboarding at scale, and support for rapid geographic expansion.
