Case Study: Concern Worldwide streamlines humanitarian program applications with Trakstar Hire

Concern Worldwide - Customer Case Study

Concern Worldwide, an international humanitarian organization based in Dublin, runs the Program on Humanitarian Leadership (PHL) to train professionals working in crises around the world. As application volumes surged from more than 750 to over 1,500 candidates for just 37 spaces, the team needed a better way to manage and sort a highly competitive, global selection process. They used Trakstar Hire to organize applicants instead of handling everything manually.

Trakstar helped Concern Worldwide streamline screening with buckets like “yes,” “no,” and “maybe,” plus labels to tag key qualifications and quickly identify standout candidates. The result was a much faster, more efficient review process that made it possible to shortlist, interview, and select a diverse cohort across regions and skill sets without being overwhelmed by paperwork; Concern Worldwide noted that doing it manually would have taken an extremely long time.
