Case Study: Insight Partners achieves more diverse early-career hiring with WayUp

Insight Partners grows early-career talent network by 133% with WayUp

Insight Partners, a top private equity and venture capital firm, faced challenges in recruiting diverse, early-career talent due to their traditional focus on a narrow set of top-tier schools. To expand their recruiting footprint and grow a more diverse talent pipeline, they partnered with the vendor WayUp and leveraged its D&I Sourcing and Analytics tools and large candidate userbase.

WayUp helped Insight build a robust top-of-funnel, driving more applications from female, Black, Hispanic, and Mixed-Race candidates. The results included a 20% increase in brand impressions and a 133% growth in their early-career talent network. Furthermore, 25% of the hires for 16 internship roles were sourced directly from WayUp, which provided a talent network comprised of 48% female students and 64% underrepresented minorities.
