Case Studies
Scenario: A global Fortune 500 pharmaceutical company had an urgent need for Clinical Data Manager for their R&D facility in the SW US.
Challenge: The Hiring Manager was being very particular and seeking a candidate with a unique software experience. In addition, the job was open for 12 months, and during that timeframe, there were over 475 applicants. 23 candidates presented for the job which yielded 3 phone screenings and 1 in-person interview.
Solution: We were able to schedule an intake phone call to speak with the Hiring Manager with our client. He was able to give some very exact details on the skillset needed for this job. More importantly, we were able to uncover some intangible qualifications for the ideal candidate pertaining to their ability to work within a matrix-style corporate environment. In addition, the Hiring Manager disclosed the importance of collaborating with a specific team within his group. Our team gathered this information and was able to construct a personalized approach for our client. We were able to submit 2 candidates within 3 days and both were able to gain phone interviews. One was selected for an in-person interview, and he accepted the job within 48 hours of his in-person interview. Our team’s Fill Rate was less than 48 days which included time for the candidate to give his two weeks’ notice AND relocate he and his family from the SF Bay area.
