Case Study: University of Phoenix achieves 25% higher response rates and 6 nursing hires with hireez

University of Phoenix Nabs Nurses with Hiretual

University of Phoenix faced a recruiting shortfall for campus nurses: traditional channels produced low response rates because many nurses rarely use LinkedIn, making InMails slow and ineffective. To solve this, the university turned to hireez, deploying hireez Pro to expand sourcing reach and access passive candidates more directly.

Using hireez’s cross-platform search and automatically generated Boolean strings, the team quickly located passive nurse candidates and obtained personal emails and phone numbers, improving outreach efficiency and lowering costs. hireez helped boost response rates by 25% across verticals, delivered 90% contact-data accuracy, and enabled six nursing hires with niche skill sets within seven months, producing a faster, more diverse candidate slate.
