Case Study: James Andrews Recruitment Solutions achieves 5.67x ROI and upskills its talent acquisition team with LinkedIn Talent Solutions

How James Andrews used gamification, carrots and sticks to upskill its talent acquisition team and differentiate itself in a competitive marketplace

James Andrews is a sector- and region-focused recruitment specialist serving housing management, assessment/maintenance and professional services. Facing a competitive, post-pandemic market, the firm needed consultants to adopt real-time data and modern tools and to move away from traditional working methods so they could give more strategic, sector-specific advice to clients.

The company expanded investment in LinkedIn Recruiter, LinkedIn Learning and LinkedIn Talent Insights, delivered bespoke mandatory training and gamified adoption with a LinkedIn 'Hunger Games' "use it or lose it" trial of licences (12 original; trialled 12 more; now access to 21 LinkedIn Recruiter Licences, subsequently purchased an additional five licences and four more added recently). The initiative drove measurable results — ROI x 5.67, 6,410 potential new customers added to the James Andrews database and 113 successful hires — and created a more data-driven, motivated consultant team.
