Case Study: PlanGrid Build achieves 4x growth and a 65% referral hire rate with Greenhouse Software

Hiring For Hyper Growth at PlanGrid

PlanGrid, a construction productivity software company founded in 2011 with about 130 employees, needed to scale hiring without sacrificing its culture of transparency and rigorous candidate assessment. Before Greenhouse, recruiting was tracked ad hoc in Salesforce and Trello, which provided limited visibility, poor collaboration and little ability to scale.

Implementing Greenhouse in under a week gave PlanGrid structured yet flexible workflows, interview kits and customizable scorecards, plus built‑in task management and social sharing to engage employees. The result: employees became more involved in hiring, the company quadrupled in size, and 65% of hires now come from referrals.
