The problem of shortage of qualified workers and unsuitable recruitment channels for talents

Job 4 You is specialized in recruitment and job placement in the fields of construction and skilled trades, engineering and industry as well as business and information technology. Due to the shortage of qualified workers, Job 4 You faces the constant challenge of identifying the right channels for quick and easy talent acquisition. Mario Ferrigno, CEO and co-owner of Job 4 You, says that the traditional application channel via forms is leading to fewer and fewer applications. In addition, traditional communication via email and telephone often results in delays and inadequate responses.

“We have already seen over the years that you simply have to have the hurdles as low as possible"

says Mario.

Immediately after the introduction of PastaHR, the even lower application hurdles resulted in more applications. Thanks to PastaHR, the number of applications increased by over 70%. In order to make the initial contact with the target group very simple, no pre-qualification questions were asked. According to Mario, WhatsApp is clearly the application channel favored by his target group over the traditional application form:

“People always opt for the WhatsApp application if they have the opportunity to choose"

The speed at which applications are processed has also improved considerably. As a result, the time-to-hire for Job 4 You has also been reduced.
