Case Study: Hike One improves candidate experience and hiring efficiency with Homerun

How Hike One uses Homerun to put candidate experience front and center while receiving up to 300 applications per job post

Hike One, an agency, needed a better way to manage hiring as applications grew and candidates were left waiting for replies. Their process had become reactive and disorganized, with applications scattered across email threads and up to 300 applications per job post, making it hard to deliver a positive candidate experience.

With Homerun, Hike One added structured application forms, reply reminders, and star ratings to evaluate candidates more quickly and objectively. Homerun also helped them build a dedicated career page that reflects their employer brand, and the team says the time saved now goes into writing personal responses and moving candidates through the process more thoughtfully.
