Case Study: VEIT Construction cuts time to hire and triples applicant flow with Hireline

VEIT Construction leverages Hireline to optimize its hiring economics by going beyond job boards

VEIT Construction, a Midwest specialty contracting and waste management company, faced significant challenges in sourcing skilled candidates for craft and project manager roles due to a scarce labor market. Their reliance on traditional job boards like Indeed was yielding a low candidate flow, making it difficult to fill critical positions and support ongoing projects. To address this, they turned to the vendor Hireline for a new solution.

Using Hireline, VEIT implemented intent-driven job ads on social media platforms to directly engage with passive candidates. This strategy, supplemented by a chat screener tool to evaluate experience, allowed them to connect with qualified professionals who were not actively searching job boards. The results for VEIT were substantial; within a month, Hireline helped triple their applicant flow and reduce time to hire by 60%, leading to successful hires for both craft and previously hard-to-fill project manager positions.
