Case Study: Stitch Fix achieves 450% stylist growth and 50% faster hires with Greenhouse Software

Cultivating Collaboration at Stitch Fix

Stitch Fix, a 5,000‑employee fashion‑tech company that pairs human stylists with proprietary algorithms, needed a recruiting platform to handle rapid, high‑volume hiring and improve collaboration. The company wanted to eliminate inconsistent administrative practices, reduce lost referrals, gather reliable data, automate and standardize bulk hiring, and clarify ownership between hiring managers, recruiters and interviewers.

By partnering with Greenhouse, Stitch Fix introduced automation, bulk hiring tools, standardized interview workflows, a transparent candidate activity feed, referral tracking and predictive analytics. The platform improved hiring manager engagement and accountability and delivered measurable results: a 450% increase in stylist headcount over 1.5 years, source‑to‑close time cut from 60 to 30 days, and 25% more referrals per month.
