Embedded recruitment
Intro
How we enabled Speakap with embedded recruitment, resulting in 51 hires.
Speakap started when both of the founders were still working as shift managers in a Dutch grocery store. During their everyday duties, they noticed a communication gap between themselves, their cashiers and other frontline workers. Whether it was a recalled item, or help needed at a cash register. The communication would take place on walkie-talkies, or over the store intercom. With the rise of technology, the founders realized they could streamline frontline communications through one app. Thus, Speakap was born. Almost 10 years after the launch-date, Speakap now has offices in seven locations around the world, employing more than 60 people in Amsterdam alone.

The challenge
A long term recruitment partner, with a good understanding of the market
Speakap was growing really fast, and they were hitting their capacity in multiple teams. To keep their growth journey going, they needed to build out heir teams with specialists in various domains. Their shortage of recruitment capacity and capabilities made it hard to find the right people and fulfil their hiring roadmap. That’s why Speakap started looking for a long term partner, with a good understanding of the market and recruitment capabilities in all different domains.

Our approach
To support Speakap on fulfilling their hiring roadmap, a team of 10 talent business partners we embedded in Speakap’s internal hiring team. Each focussing on a different domain, based upon their experience and field of interest.
Every role started with a kick-off, in which we mapped the ideal candidate profile and shortlisted qualified candidates. Followed by managing the end-to-end to provide an exceptional candidate experience from introduction interviews to eventually signing.
