Challenges
A global partner for global challenges
One of the world’s leading high-performance networking products and services companies has nearly 10,000 employees and offices in more than 40 countries. The company’s recruitment function in North America, Latin America, EMEA and APAC wasn’t equipped to meet hiring needs created by its rapid global growth and ongoing diversification of products and services.
The firm needed top talent in increasing volumes, within very niche skill sets and demanding geographies. It wanted a flexible Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) partner that could bring genuine talent acquisition expertise – and Cielo fit the bill.
Cielo hit the ground running and helped us ramp up our hiring to more than double the anticipated volume.
