Case Study: PepsiCo achieves just-in-time, centralized talent pipelines with LinkedIn Talent Solutions

PepsiCo - Customer Case Study

LinkedIn’s Talent Pipeline helped companies like PepsiCo and Beachbody solve a common hiring problem: the need for just‑in‑time talent and a reliable way to manage passive candidates. PepsiCo struggled with siloed, quickly outdated CRM records and ad‑hoc spreadsheets, while Beachbody needed to scale hiring, boost employer brand recognition and reduce reliance on job boards and agencies.

By centralizing talent pools in Talent Pipeline — auto‑matching uploaded leads to LinkedIn profiles, adding searchable tags, shared folders and a simple workflow inside LinkedIn Recruiter — teams gained one global, up‑to‑date system for sourcing and nurturing candidates. The result was better collaboration and ongoing engagement with passive talent, faster re‑engagement when roles opened, and measurable impact (Beachbody found 25% of hires via LinkedIn), enabling scaled recruiting and reduced third‑party spend.
