Case Study: Wandle streamlines hiring and improves candidate experience with Zinc Work

Wandle saves 90 minutes per employee with Zinc Work

Wandle, a housing association based in South London, faced significant challenges in its talent acquisition process. As a one-person team, the Talent Acquisition Partner was overwhelmed by the administrative burden of manually managing background checks across multiple non-integrated providers. This time-consuming process prevented them from delivering a human-centred candidate experience and focusing on strategic goals. The vendor, Zinc Work, provided its background check software to streamline these systems.

By implementing Zinc Work's consolidated platform, Wandle was able to manage all necessary checks from a single system. The solution automated reference chasing and provided real-time updates, which drastically reduced manual intervention. This saved an estimated 90 minutes per candidate and cut the average background check turnaround time to just 4.1 days. These efficiencies freed up the talent team to focus on big-picture projects like developing an employer value proposition, ultimately boosting Wandle's employer brand and candidate experience.
