Case Study: Global Manufacturer cuts time-to-hire in half with PeopleScout global RPO

Peoplescout cuts time-to-hire in half with global talent acquisition solution for manufacturer

A global manufacturer of engineering solutions faced significant challenges in acquiring specialized industrial engineering talent across 16 countries. Their previous RPO provider had failed, leaving many roles unfilled for over 500 days and resulting in a disjointed, inefficient process with little visibility. They partnered with PeopleScout for a global recruitment process outsourcing (RPO) solution to gain a consistent process and address a looming talent gap in their aging workforce.

PeopleScout implemented an end-to-end global RPO solution, leveraging multilingual teams and local market expertise to source candidates through proactive headhunting and targeted strategies. This included tailoring approaches for each region and building talent pools for future needs. As a result, PeopleScout surpassed the initial hiring target, filling 245 roles in the first year, and cut the average time-to-hire by 50%. The partnership expanded in the second year with over 300 projected hires.
