Case Study: a top-10 government contractor turns employee profiles into a skills inventory with Phenom Talent Marketplace

Top-10 Government Contractor captures 50,000+ skills and drives 37% of hires from within with Phenom

The customer, a top-10 government contractor in the aerospace and defense sector, faced a challenge where its employees lacked visibility into internal career opportunities and the business had no clear inventory of its workforce's skills. This made it difficult to quickly align talent with new contracts. Using the Phenom Talent Marketplace, the vendor aimed to solve this by creating an internal career center to help employees advance their careers.

Phenom implemented a comprehensive internal talent marketplace that encouraged employees to build and maintain detailed profiles, which effectively created a company-wide skills inventory. This solution resulted in over 50,000 employee skills being captured, a 50%+ profile completion rate representing more than 20,000 employees, and 37% of hires now coming from internal transfers. The data is now used by managers for business planning and talent alignment, reducing reliance on external hiring.
