Case Study: Siemens achieves 550 hires and builds a proactive talent pipeline for UK wind power with LinkedIn Talent Solutions

Siemens takes a creative approach to recruitment

Siemens, expanding its wind power business in the UK, faced a shortage of candidates with the specific, underrepresented skill sets needed in this young industry. To support rapid growth the company needed to revamp its recruitment approach and engage passive candidates with adaptable skills.

By using LinkedIn Recruiter and targeted LinkedIn Jobs campaigns, Siemens proactively sourced talent from outside the sector, built talent pipelines, and engaged passive candidates early. The approach generated 1,500 new candidate connections, led to 550 positions filled in 12 months, and filled 70 technician roles during a three-month campaign.
