Case Study: Global Affairs Canada achieves standardized global hiring with VidCruiter's end-to-end platform

How Global Affairs Canada standardized global hiring through an end-to-end solution

Global Affairs Canada (GAC), responsible for Canada’s diplomatic and consular relations across 175+ missions worldwide, needed to unify highly variable, region-specific hiring processes plagued by disparate systems, manual data transfers, and inconsistent reporting. To meet requirements for security, compliance, and flexibility, GAC selected VidCruiter’s end-to-end hiring platform to standardize recruitment for locally-engaged staff and replace dozens of disconnected workflows.

VidCruiter implemented a tailored, secure platform with automated workflows, a Government-compliant career page, structured interview guides, centralized applicant storage, real-time time-to-hire metrics, anonymized recruitment options, and automated reference checks. The solution now manages 20+ distinct hiring processes, can process 100K+ applications/year for 175+ missions, and nearly doubled the number of positions advertised over a recent 10-month period versus the prior three years—delivering faster, more transparent, and more consistent global hiring for GAC.
