Case Study: Atlassian achieves 4,900+ employees and improved candidate experience with Lever

Atlassian's Journey to Nearly 4,900 Global Staff

Atlassian, the Sydney‑based enterprise software company founded in 2002, scaled rapidly to nearly 4,900 employees and faced mounting talent challenges: unifying data across systems, creating a predictable model to hit hiring targets, and improving recruiter engagement and the candidate experience as headcount grew.

Atlassian deployed Lever as a comprehensive hiring suite to humanize and streamline recruiting, giving 100+ recruiters an intuitive interface to collaborate, preserve candidate data and personal touch, and run nurture campaigns. The result was scalable hiring that upheld company values — over 80% interview feedback completion, more than 30% of hires sourced, and rapid expansion including a new Bengaluru R&D center.
