Case Study: Lyst hires 59 engineering roles with Talentful

How Talentful helped Lyst make 59 engineering hires

Lyst, the London-based fashion technology company, was experiencing rapid growth and needed to scale engineering hiring fast. Their lean internal talent acquisition team was overstretched, and the company also wanted to strengthen its employer brand in tech and become a more attractive destination for engineers. Talentful was brought in as an embedded talent acquisition solution to help meet these hiring demands.

Talentful embedded two Talent Partners in-house to support Lyst’s engineering hiring goals, improve sourcing and candidate engagement, and provide more strategic reporting to leadership. The partnership delivered 59 engineering hires, 118% of target, saved an estimated $418,800 versus an agency model, and reduced time to hire to 22 days. Talentful also helped improve hiring diversity, with 33% of hires from BAME backgrounds and 13.5% female engineers.
