Our client, headquartered in Houston with a presence in all 50 contiguous States, relies on the expertise of its employees to deliver the solutions and the quality of service demanded by its clients. "Human capital return on investment" is used by this customer as an indicator of the increase in skill and productivity of its workforce, in combination with financial performance. The firm invests in developing and motivating its employees whether they are new hires, seasoned employees, key talent or senior managers. As an organization that invests largely in its human capital as a competitive differentiator, our client considered employer branding a very important consideration to support long‐term strategic hiring.

As an organization that believes that human capital return on investment is a key performance indicator of its business success, our customer wanted to upgrade the quality of candidates, diversify its recruiting sources and reduce costs, make the entire recruiting and hiring process more efficient; and enhance the candidate experience and its employer brand.
