Hudson RPO implemented a tailored RPO program with a team of 15 recruiters, a multi-channel sourcing strategy, and a defined employer value proposition. The solution was highly successful, filling 1,700 positions within seven months. Hudson RPO achieved an average time to fill of 45 days against a 60-day target and filled 40% of roles through proactive sourcing, significantly improving the quality of hires and the organization's retention.
