Case Study: Softchoice cuts recruitment costs and shortens time-to-hire with LinkedIn Talent Solutions

Softchoice - Customer Case Study

Softchoice, a leading North American provider of technology solutions with roughly 950 employees across 40+ branches, faced rising recruitment costs and the challenge of bringing hiring largely in‑house while filling 50–80 open requisitions at a time. With limited consumer brand recognition and hard‑to‑find technical and sales talent, the HR team needed a more proactive, targeted way to reach passive candidates and reduce reliance on expensive agencies and job boards.

By adopting LinkedIn Recruiting Solutions—including Recruiter seats, Job Slots, Recruitment Insights, Recruitment Ads, Talent Direct and a custom Career Page—Softchoice shifted budget from traditional boards to targeted campaigns, worked with marketing on tailored messaging, and used data to refine sourcing and InMail outreach. The result: more hires sourced through LinkedIn and referrals, shorter time-to-fill for technical roles, lower recruiting costs, and better tracking of recruiter performance through LinkedIn metrics and quarterly business reviews.
