One of the world’s largest privately owned cybersecurity companies approached us with a pressing challenge. Their careers website was outdated and inefficient, failing to attract potential employees and unable to manage the influx of professionals seeking job opportunities. The HR department was overwhelmed, struggling with an unorganized application process and an outdated site that made even minor updates frustrating. They needed a streamlined, scalable solution that would improve their internal processes and enhance their recruitment efforts.
Problem
The client's main pain points included:
- An outdated website that didn't drive enough traffic from job seekers.
- A chaotic, inefficient process for handling CVs and applications.
- Difficulty making updates or additions to the website.
- A lack of integration with their existing HR systems like SAP SuccessFactors, leading to manual processing and delays.
This created a frustrating experience for the HR department and potential employees alike, hampering their ability to attract top talent.
Solution
At ProSense, we approached the problem holistically, focusing not just on the aesthetics of the website but also on the underlying functionality. Our solution involved:
- A full redesign of both the backend and frontend applications, providing a more modern, user-friendly experience for applicants and HR personnel.
- Seamless integration with SAP SuccessFactors, automating the flow of job applications and simplifying internal workflows.
- The development of specialized projects to continuously enhance the website’s performance, including features that optimized the job search and application process.
- A focus on improving conversion rates through UX improvements and strategic adjustments that better aligned the website with the client’s recruitment goals.
Execution
Given the urgency of the project, we had just two months to execute the full transformation. Our team worked in sprints, ensuring that each phase was rigorously tested before moving forward. Key steps included:
- Collaborating closely with the client’s HR and IT teams to gather requirements and prioritize features.
- Implementing a modular backend structure, enabling quick updates and scaling for future needs.
- Designing a mobile-responsive frontend to cater to the growing number of job seekers accessing the site from mobile devices.
- Overcoming a tight deadline by leveraging agile development methodologies, ensuring constant feedback and iteration throughout the project.
The most significant challenge we faced was the limited timeframe. However, through a well-coordinated effort and close client collaboration, we delivered the project on time.
Results
The impact of our work was immediate and measurable:
- Increased Conversion Rate: We increased the conversion rate of job seekers' applications by 2.5 times, providing a significant boost to the client’s talent acquisition efforts.
- Streamlined HR Processes: The integration with SAP SuccessFactors reduced the need for manual processing, enabling the HR team to focus on higher-value tasks.
- Enhanced User Experience: The redesigned website, with an intuitive interface and improved navigation, received positive feedback from both internal users and job applicants.
- Scalability for Future Growth: The client now has a robust, scalable platform capable of supporting future recruitment campaigns and handling increased traffic.
