18. Case Study: Global
Systems Integrator
• Problem: A severe shortage of relevant CVs from
current suppliers meant our client could not move
forward with its recruitment drive. This was resulting
in additional demand on its current teams due to a
shortage of 30+ employees within their data centre.
• Solution: To provide an immediate volume response
across the board to all vacancies followed by a
targeted campaign based on their needs to
support the initial drive.
19. Case Study: Global
Systems Integrator
• Result: After HR made initial contact with Evolution,
we met to gain a deeper understanding of the
business and its current needs. After the meeting,
the urgency of the roles was obvious so Evolution
pulled out all the stops including mobilising its
resources to work a 7 day week to capture and
interview candidates. The results were very positive
with over 500 candidates contacted and over 140
applications for roles across the board.
20. Case Study: Global
Systems Integrator
• Evolution achieved a ratio of one interview
requested for every two CVs sent.
• Evolution is now proud to be the IT and Telecoms
recruitment supplier of choice to the client.
