Case Study: Evidence Action streamlines hiring and supports growth with Workable

Evidence Action grows to 700+ staff with Workable

Evidence Action, a global nonprofit scaling health and development solutions, faced the challenge of recruiting effectively for critical senior roles during a period of rapid growth. To ensure they hired talented professionals who aligned with their mission, they partnered with Workable and implemented an archetype-based approach to their recruitment process.

Workable's solution involved creating ideal candidate archetypes—holistic profiles blending skills, traits, and experiences—to serve as a guide for sourcing and evaluation. This method provided clarity, streamlined the hiring process by front-loading assessment work, and saved invaluable time and resources. By defining multiple archetypes per role, Workable helped Evidence Action improve candidate diversity across different geographies and backgrounds, ensuring hires were a strong fit for both the role and the organization's culture.
