The Sharp-Hudson RPO partnership: technology focus
Sharp design and manufacture one-of-a-kind electronics. As a Japanese multinational corporation, Sharp’s employer brand had been relatively unformed in the UK and Europe.
For many years, Sharp had relied on traditional recruitment methods, but this approach was costing the business more than £750,000 per annum.
To achieve greater efficiency and cost savings, Sharp selected Hudson RPO. Within weeks, our team had designed the processes to attract sales professionals, engineers, technicians, and corporate specialists.
From the start, we installed on-site recruitment leads in the UK and Sweden, and recently in France.
Additional support comes from Hudson RPO’s Centre of Excellence.
Sharp also partnered with Hudson RPO to launch a new Sharp careers site. It provides localised content to attract candidates across EMEA, using 10 unique locales.
Furthermore, thanks to the addition of 21 employee videos in native languages, prospective candidates are instantly introduced to life at Sharp and a range of career paths.
The result? A larger number of qualified candidates engage with the brand and submit completed applications quicker. Key posts are filled faster.
Sharp is tracking to achieve 90 per cent of recruitment through direct delivery. The company is also tracking to save £750,000 in agency fees.
