Hibernia Case Study

Challenge

Navigating the recruitment landscape for multiple newly established positions amidst Hibernia’s expansion presented a multifaceted challenge.

• There was a pressing need for support with backfills and temporary contract positions, often due to projects or maternity leave.
• The scarcity of quality candidates applying directly intensified the challenge, while internal capacity constraints added further complexity.

Solution

• To address these challenges, Mason Alexander devised a comprehensive plan ensuring a seamless and efficient recruitment process.
• This involved establishing a clear screening-to-offer trajectory, defining an interview process in tandem with Hiring Managers, and incorporating skills assessments to augment candidate evaluation. This ensured only quality candidates were being considered.
• Regular weekly catchups were scheduled to facilitate ongoing progress updates and feedback discussions.
  

Outcome:

• Five candidates progressed to the first-round interview, followed by three to the second round.
• Ultimately, two candidates emerged as finalists, with the ideal candidate identified and a strong second option.
• Subsequently, a formal offer was extended and accepted, marking the culmination of a successful recruitment endeavour.
