Case Study: Cutting LinkedIn spend and time-to-fill at HatchWorks
Key results
The challenge
HatchWorks faced a backlog of 40 roles with an average time-to-hire of 60 days, while its LinkedIn Recruiter costs climbed after a 34% price increase. The team needed a more cost-effective and faster way to source and engage candidates.
The solution
HatchWorks adopted hireEZ's AI sourcing and recruitment CRM to identify candidates and run outbound email campaigns, replacing much of its reliance on LinkedIn Recruiter.
“Bringing on hireEZ was a condition of my employment. I told HatchWorks, 'I'm not going to come to work and do my job without it.'”
