Case Study: an oil and gas company fills 65% of roles with TalentNet's direct sourcing program

Gas and Oil Giant Surpasses Hiring Goal After Revamping its Direct Sourcing Program

An oil and gas company faced significant industry changes as it shifted toward sustainable energy, requiring it to hire for new skill sets in IT, marketing, and engineering. The company needed to upgrade its existing direct sourcing program with vendor TalentNet to access new talent pools and expand the initiative globally to meet its contingent workforce needs.

TalentNet implemented several key upgrades, including a strictly enforced 48-hour exclusivity initiative for curators, the setup of new publication sources like Indeed, and better integration of the curation team. As a result, the oil and gas company surpassed its hiring goal, filling 65% of its open roles in Q3/Q4 2022 compared to a 50% target. Furthermore, TalentNet helped the company grow its net new community members by 156%, enabling exponential growth into the following year.
