About The Customer
GR0 is a digital advertising company that was facing challenges with their recruitment process. The company's Vice President of People, Aaron Friedman, who has a background in software implementation in the healthcare industry, was looking for innovative recruiting tools to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of their recruitment process. The company's recruitment team, led by Friedman, was primarily using LinkedIn Recruiter to source candidates but found it limiting in terms of outreach and automation capabilities.
The Challenge
GR0, a digital advertising company, was facing significant challenges with their recruitment process. The company's Vice President of People, Aaron Friedman, and his three-person recruiting team primarily relied on LinkedIn Recruiter to source both active and passive candidates. However, they found the platform incredibly limiting in terms of outreach, as LinkedIn only allowed 150 InMails a month per $9,000/year recruiter seat. The team struggled to cut through the InMail noise and reach more qualified candidates. Another major limitation was the lack of automated outreach capabilities on LinkedIn Recruiter. The team wanted a way to send drip campaigns without the hassle of setting manual follow-up reminders.
The Solution
Aaron Friedman discovered Fetcher, a recruitment automation tool, through his LinkedIn network and decided to integrate it into GR0's recruitment process. In just four months, GR0's recruiting strategy now revolves exclusively around Fetcher. The team uses it daily to engage new and nurtured candidates, and even to connect with candidates on LinkedIn, through the link provided in each Fetcher candidate profile. They have been able to personalize the platform by creating email templates, A/B testing emails to determine what resonates with candidates, and adding diversity sourcing criteria to the searches. Fetcher's integration with Lever, GR0's current ATS, is also much stronger than what they had previously with LinkedIn. It takes just a second to move an interested candidate over to Lever, even when the GR0 team self-sources candidates they found on LinkedIn via Fetcher's Chrome extension.
Operational Impact
  • The adoption of Fetcher has led to significant operational improvements for GR0. The recruitment team has been able to create and send automated email sequences, which has been a game-changer according to Aaron. The integration of Fetcher with Lever, GR0's current ATS, has also improved the efficiency of the recruitment process. The team can now quickly move an interested candidate over to Lever, even when they self-source candidates they found on LinkedIn via Fetcher's Chrome extension. This tech-forward approach to recruitment has allowed GR0's recruiters to build workflows based on their priorities and goals, and focus on the overall candidate experience.
Quantitative Benefit
  • GR0 expanded their outreach through automated, personalized email sequences with average open rates at 98%
  • The average response rates of the email sequences were 29%
  • In the first four months with Fetcher, GR0 made five hires
