challenges
Meeting rising expectations in a competitive talent market
NES Fircroft operates across high-demand sectors where sourcing top talent is increasingly complex. The team needed to modernise its approach to reduce time-to-hire, engage passive candidates, and meet rising client expectations, without compromising on quality or the personalised experience that defines its brand.
How LinkedIn helped
Empowering recruiters with AI-driven efficiency
By integrating LinkedIn’s Recruiter and Hiring Assistant into their workflow, NES Fircroft transformed their approach to talent acquisition. The team quickly embraced these advanced tools, which enabled them to save significant time on candidate searches and focus on high-impact activities. The intuitive “Show Details” feature in Hiring Assistant surfaced unique and passive candidates, while the AI-driven recommendations provided a constant stream of quality talent, especially for standard roles.
With Recruiter and Hiring Assistant, NES Fircroft recruiters could confidently make faster, more informed decisions, reduce repetitive manual tasks, and deliver exceptional results for clients. The partnership with LinkedIn empowered NES Fircroft to scale their efforts, reduce time-to-hire, and access a richer, more diverse talent pool.
