Case Study: West Monroe achieves rapid senior hires and $100K+ agency-fee savings with SeekOut

West Monroe Builds a Stronger Talent Pipeline with SeekOut

West Monroe, a 1,500-employee business and technology consulting firm, faced aggressive growth targets (initially 180 hires, later 389) and a fragmented recruiting process that wasted time. They struggled with a small talent pool for niche management consulting roles—most notably a Senior Partner for their Energy & Utilities practice that had been open for about two years—so they turned to SeekOut for help.

SeekOut’s sourcing platform, using Custom Power Filters and People Insights, centralized searches, surfaced new candidate pools, and streamlined passive sourcing for West Monroe. In five months the team completed 50+ recruiter screens, 25 interviews, and 10 hires (including two senior partner–level hires), filled the Energy and Utilities Senior Partner role in two weeks, and saved at least $100,000 in agency fees (with total agency savings in the hundreds of thousands), rapidly advancing their hiring goals.
