Case Study: BuzzFeed achieves consistent, data-driven hiring and clearer reporting with Greenhouse Software

Empowering recruiters through system optimization at BuzzFeed

BuzzFeed, a 1,350‑employee internet media company focused on social news and digital entertainment, needed to standardize hiring across departments and locations and produce meaningful KPI data for its executive team. To evolve its recruiting process and adopt industry best practices, BuzzFeed engaged Greenhouse Consulting to implement consistent workflows and build a data-driven recruiting approach.

Greenhouse provided an onsite audit of system configurations and processes, oversaw implementation of recommendations, and delivered training on Greenhouse features and reporting to enable data-driven decision-making. The engagement produced more meaningful reports, consolidated rejection reasons, and increased process consistency — boosting adoption rates and giving talent leaders the insights needed to iterate and innovate.
