Case Study: P&O Ferries achieves rapid hiring—75 roles filled in 6 weeks and 62% line‑manager time savings—with myInterview

Candidate engagement & implementing video for the win

P&O Ferries, a leading UK ferry operator with 4,000 staff and 20 ships, faced a recruitment crisis after COVID‑19 slashed tourism (98% drop) and furloughed a third of the workforce, while Brexit increased paperwork and slowed operations. To speed up hiring and improve candidate screening as people came off furlough, P&O Ferries turned to myInterview, a smart video interview platform that prioritises personality and makes hiring collaborative and efficient.

Using myInterview’s branded video interviews, P&O Ferries filled 75 jobs in six weeks (about 83% of vacancies), processed 1,000+ applicants, and cut average time-to-offer to 9 days. myInterview delivered a 70% video completion rate, saved line managers 62% of their time, enabled 25% more interviews in less time, produced 8.3 candidates/day and resulted in three out of four candidates being met after video screening—driving faster, higher-quality hiring.
