How did a top automotive parts company attract and hire passive candidates?

The Situation

Flex-N-Gate started as a small aftermarket car parts shop in 1956 and slowly grew into a national original equipment business specializing in the highest quality plastics, metals, and lighting. As one of the premier companies in the automotive industry, Flex-N-Gate sought to attract the best candidates to staff their organization.

As the leader in their industry, Flex-N-Gate was left them with a common problem seen by industry leaders around the world. They were uninterested in active candidates, who were invariably the same recycled candidates that they had already seen and rejected in the past. Flex-N-Gate thus came to RecruitiFi seeking to be presented with pre-vetted, passive candidates.

The Solution

Passive Candidates - Passive candidates are the ideal when it comes to talent acquisition. Companies want their recruiters to find candidates who are engaged and producing for their current employers. This was Flex-N-Gate’s stipulation, and they received a number of excellent passive candidates from RecruitiFi’s community of expert agency recruiters whom they hired.

Cost - Recruiting quality passive candidates can be quite costly, often running into the hundreds of thousands of dollars for just a couple of placements. By using the RecruitiFi platform, Flex-N-Gate was able to hire each of their candidates for a flat fee of 14%.

Communication - Calling and emailing with recruiters in order to keep tabs on passive candidates can be a time intensive process with a lot of back and forth. Flex-N-Gate found that the RecruitiFi platform’s automatic status updates and chat feature allowed for an easy, seamless interaction with recruiters where a lot of communication cycles were eliminated or handled more efficiently through RecruitiFi.

Usability - Flex-N-Gate found the RecruitiFi platform easy to use and intuitive. They also made note of how responsive the account management department was at RecruitiFi, ensuring that all of their needs were met and questions answered in a timely fashion.

In Their own words
“We generally do not hire active candidates, which is why we were so excited that RecruitiFi was able to quickly and easily present us with so many qualified passive candidates.”
