Insurance Client High-Volume Project - Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO)

The Client 

Our client is a global insurance company, providing market-leading products across car, home, health, and business markets. Currently, their services extend to over 100 million individuals in 57 countries and are provided by more than 160,000 employees. 

Client Challenge 

Our client was looking for a Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) partner to support high volume recruitment projects to facilitate hiring ramps in the call centres and office networks.  

The client’s internal teams supported sourcing on these role types, however, the organisation had significant concerns regarding volume of applications, quality of responses, and the capacity of the talent delivery team to complete the projects within the necessary timescales and on budget.  

Cpl’s Talent Evolution Group was selected to develop and run a comprehensive RPO solution, including talent attraction marketing strategy, sourcing and screening of candidates to bridge the quality gap, interview selection, onboarding, and full process management. The client’s request was to complete each RPO project, with successful candidates starting within 14 weeks of the talent acquisition process commencement. 

Client Journey  

The client was transparent about the concerns they had about the pressure this extra work would place on their in-house talent delivery team given progress to date. They recognised that to be successful in meeting the demands of the business, they required additional support and that Cpl's Talent Evolution Group could offer a tailored Project RPO solution.  

The benefit to our client was that they were able to transfer the entire recruitment process to a dedicated Cpl’s Talent Evolution Group team to ensure that candidates and hiring managers had an excellent recruitment experience.

Client Success 

Cpl’s Talent Evolution Group, in collaboration with our internal recruitment marketing team, delivered a targeted talent attraction campaign. This campaign was tailored to capture the interest of individuals who may not have previously considered opportunities within the target job families

The close coordination between Cpl’s Talent Evolution Group and the client facilitated an efficient and synchronised recruitment campaign. 

Central to our client’s strategy was the implementation of a comprehensive Project RPO program, overseeing the entire recruitment lifecycle. This initiative included the introduction of refined pre-screening assessments and screening calls, meticulously designed to evaluate candidates' suitability and core competencies for the roles, both behavioural and technical.  

Employing an array of inclusive channels, Cpl’s Talent Evolution Group effectively identified and attracted both active job seekers and passive talent with diverse backgrounds.
