Is It Time to Switch to a More Comprehensive and Unified Recruitment Strategy?

Discover how the food processing company, Olymel, created a more consistent and effective recruiting process.

Olymel, a Canadian-based food processing company, had a decentralized talent acquisition function with separate processes across different plants and regions creating inconsistency company-wide.

With limited resources and time, and more than 3,000 open roles across five plants each year, the company sought to achieve a more cohesive talent strategy and as a result, turned to Randstad Sourceright to implement a recruitment process outsourcing (RPO) strategy.

The switch to a unified recruitment strategy has led to significant improvements, including creating a robust pipeline of qualified candidates to fill Olymel’s open roles. Olymel is now filling more than 140 roles per month across their plants, driving more than 15,000 applications. Having an RPO program in place has driven greater recruiting consistency and they now have a proven strategy to attract qualified candidates.
