Case Study: Colliers reduces agency spending with SmartRecruiters

Colliers cuts agency spending and boosts direct hiring to 80%+ with SmartRecruiters

Colliers, a global real estate services firm operating across EMEA, faced inconsistent hiring processes and a lack of visibility across its many offices. Without a centralized system, candidate experience varied and the company lacked the data to improve its talent acquisition. This led them to partner with SmartRecruiters to implement their talent acquisition platform.

By deploying SmartRecruiters, Colliers standardized its hiring tools and processes, enhanced its careers site, and leveraged recruitment marketing campaigns. This brought much-needed consistency and visibility. The solution delivered significant results, including a consistent direct hiring rate of over 80%, a reduction in agency-based sourcing to just 7%, and a 25% improvement in first-year hire retention, all while significantly cutting agency spending.
