Business Challenge
The client needed to rapidly scale engineering teams supporting several global transformation programmes running at the same time, the largest and broadest hiring mandate in this group of engagements, spanning a full year with no natural pause point to catch up if hiring fell behind early.
Our Solution
We deployed a 30-member dedicated delivery team backed by AI-powered sourcing, technical screening and continuous candidate engagement, built to sustain high-quality hiring at volume across the full programme without the quality dropping as the numbers grew. An average first-profile-submission time of 8 hours is what let the Director keep every workstream's hiring visibly on track from week one.
Our Approach
A team sized for the actual scale of the mandate, not a standard account team stretched to cover it, meant no single workstream was ever the bottleneck.
AI-assisted matching kept sourcing throughput high without the usual trade-off of screening quality dropping as volume increases.
Screening ran as a constant process alongside sourcing rather than a periodic batch review, keeping the 97% fill rate consistent month over month.
Ongoing engagement through offer and onboarding is what kept quality steady across 450+ closures rather than tapering off after the first wave of hires.
Client Voice
“At this volume we expected quality to slip somewhere along the way. It didn't, that was the real surprise of this engagement.”
— Director – Engineering Services
The Outcome
Closing 450+ technology positions across a single 12-month programme, at a 97% fill rate, made this the largest and highest-throughput engagement in this group, without a corresponding drop in average time-to-fill.
