Case Study: Trafikverket achieves data-led hiring — fills 3,000 roles and reduces failed recruitments by 25% with LinkedIn Talent Solutions

How Trafikverket modernised their talent strategy to recruit for today, and in the future

Trafikverket, Sweden’s national transport agency with 10,000+ employees, faced a tightening labour market and rising competition for talent. Reliant on traditional recruitment methods, the organisation struggled to find the right candidates quickly and needed new tools to build a sustainable pipeline for current and future hiring needs.

By adopting LinkedIn Talent Solutions and its Enterprise Program, Trafikverket combined active candidate search, targeted employer branding, and real-time market intelligence with Talent Insights. The data-led approach improved outreach to passive and active candidates and delivered measurable impact: a 25% reduction in failed recruitments, 3,000 roles filled in one year, and a 1.6x increase in LinkedIn followers.
