A large-scale healthcare services organization needed a proven RPO provider to support its range of hyper-competitive and hard-to-fill IT positions. By the project’s end, Acara generated over $150,000 in cost savings for the client while staffing its IT department with premier tech talent.
A $650-million Healthcare Services organization with over 3,000 employees and 30+ offices across the U.S. and India, they provide a broad range of health services, including analytics, benefit coordination, payment integrity, and population health management solutions.
Our client sought a proven RPO partner with deep IT recruitment expertise to fill challenging positions— including security engineers, database engineers, enterprise and network architects, data scientists, and analysts. Without internal technical recruiting expertise and limited bandwidth, our client had a history of utilizing high-cost contingent search agencies where technology positions sat vacant for months. The company looked to Acara to quickly integrate our industry-leading RPO solution to significantly ramp up their IT hiring efforts.
Acara faced an uphill battle in filling these highly skilled positions in hyper-competitive markets.
Leveraging our relationships with the client’s key stakeholders—along with our understanding of their internal processes and company culture—Acara went to work to fast-track our RPO solution and industry-leading CRM platform. Our team implemented a proven methodology to ensure key leaders were informed and engaged. Acting as an extension of the HR team, we assembled IT recruitment consultants and sourcers, along with a dedicated project delivery manager, to lead our client to successful hiring outcomes.
Acara deployed a number of reporting tools to track and source data—including Microsoft Power BI—that worked in conjunction with the company’s HR system to display recruiting activity metrics such as candidate pipeline volume by position, time-to-submit, and interview-to-hire ratios. We set an aggressive target KPI of five offers per month to ensure that our recruiters met appropriate deliverables.
Acara not only quickly staffed the client’s IT department with premier tech talent, but also delivered tremendous value and significant cost savings. Serving as a trusted advisor, we amplified the company’s employment brand while improving the candidate experience and employment IT value proposition in key markets.
We advised the client on effective offer management strategies and appropriate salary structures by providing them with relevant labor market compensation data to increase the number of accepted offers. To summarize, our flexible RPO solutions achieved the following results:
At the conclusion of the project, Acara generated over $150,000 in cost savings for the client when comparing our pricing model to that of a search agency. We effectively sourced over 2,200 passive IT candidates and submitted more than 250 candidates, hitting a 70% interview conversion rate. In total, our RPO team yielded the hiring and onboarding of more than 20 professionals, thereby providing a much-needed influx of high-quality tech talent to support the organization’s growth. Despite facing a difficult task in filling skilled positions in hyper-competitive markets, our average time-to-fill of 50 days demonstrated our commitment to effective sourcing approaches and recruiting efforts.
With a growing demand for qualified tech talent to meet the workforce expectations of its 1000+ bank branches in the U.S., the Client was seeking a partner to assist with the sourcing and recruiting of IT candidates. Finding quality candidates with digital skillsets proved to be difficult at a time when demand is high and the number of workers that possess the required abilities is low.
A global digital entertainment and technology organization engaged Acara to ramp up and source passive technical talent. While competing to draw talent from established competitors—including Amazon, Apple, Facebook, and more—our RPO team sourced 68,000+ candidates.
The U.S. subsidiary of Japan’s largest power company, our Client is a leader in innovating and implementing low-carbon solutions to generate clean, renewable energy. In need of a more comprehensive talent acquisition infrastructure to hire U.S.-based employees, the Client engaged Acara Solutions to quickly implement an enterprise recruitment process outsourcing (RPO) program that would help them enhance and streamline their hiring efforts.
