Case Study: Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory strengthens recruitment and collaboration with idfive

Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory builds a Drupal 9 website with idfive for 8,000 staff across 12 mission areas

The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) faced the challenge of attracting top talent and fostering partnerships through its main website, despite much of its groundbreaking work being classified. This created a paradox where they needed to showcase their work to recruit and collaborate but were legally restricted from doing so. Partnering with idfive, they sought a strategic solution built on the Drupal 9 CMS.

idfive's research revealed that the solution was to highlight APL's people and their collaborative spirit. The vendor designed and developed a bold, modular website that focuses on the employees and embodies the connected nature of APL's mission areas, facilitating exploration and featuring clear calls to action for job-seekers. This new site allows APL to effectively tell its story and attract the right talent and partners, ensuring its mission continues for years to come.
