THE SOLUTION

Integrating platforms and increasing the abundance of candidates

Implementing LinkedIn into their ATS streamlined Factorial’s recruitment process. From utilising just six job slots in 2020, the company has made LinkedIn’s Hiring Enterprise Program a key driver in their hiring success and employer branding initiatives, with over 200 active jobs per month on average over the last two and a half years.

The talent acquisition team received direct training from LinkedIn on how to use dashboards, software, and AI to their benefit. Although user activation for different hiring managers initially posed a challenge, Factorial’s IT team actively assisted in the process. Factorial also found LinkedIn’s features such as Groups to be user-friendly, allowing the easy addition of candidates to the pipeline. Any duplicated messages or activities between LinkedIn and Factorial’s ATS were also quickly identified and resolved.

The partnership improved Factorial’s business strategy as well. The company leveraged LinkedIn's vast network to incorporate outbound recruitment as one of their main sources of talent acquisition. The use of a single platform for massive searches allowed for improved teamwork and collaboration within Factorial’s recruitment team, while the cost savings associated with finding candidates for hard-to-fill positions allowed Factorial to better navigate the challenges of hypergrowth and multiple market expansion.
