Case Study: Dollar Shave Club achieves $2.5M savings and 58% faster hires with Jobvite Hire

Dollar Shave Club Uses Jobvite to Shear off Agency Spend

Dollar Shave Club, a fast-growing subscription men's grooming company, struggled to manage hiring as it scaled: without a formal recruiting team or applicant tracking system, it relied heavily on agencies, driving up costs and stretching time-to-hire to around 90 days. Sorting thousands of applicants was chaotic and inefficient, making it hard to fill positions quickly.

By implementing Jobvite Hire and a tailored workflow with branded messaging templates and social referral tools, Dollar Shave Club centralized sourcing, candidate communication, and manager reviews. The change all but eliminated agency spend (nearly $2.5M saved), cut time-to-hire to 38 days (a 58% reduction), and enabled more proactive, scalable recruiting and stronger employee-driven referrals.
