Astra-Works decreases Sourcing Overhead by 78%

‍Company: Astra Works is a leading Staffing Agency placing specialized staff with Power, Infrastructure, and Renewable Energy companies.

Challenge: Astra Works had a high-volume of searches, but were not producing enough candidates to keep-up with client demand. After recently undergoing a restructure they needed a cost-effective means of scaling.

Root Cause: Recruiters were spending a substantial portion of their day sourcing, instead of speaking with candidates. They needed a more time-efficient way of generating calls with qualified candidates. Astra Works was interested in hiring offshore, but skeptical of the process after a failed effort to outsource to an offshore agency.

Solution: Well Oiled Machine guided Astra Works to an experienced Recruiter in the Philippines with several years of experience recruiting in the US. They built-out processes for efficiently assigning search projects, performing quality control, and managing the process.

Results: Astra Works doubled their Q1 production YoY and did so at 78% less than if they had hired in the United States.
