THE ACTION
1.
Understanding first our client’s strategic roadmap was the only way to ensure we would craft the tailored solution smart Europe was looking for. Internal analysis of their existing hiring process and strategic interviews of relevant stakeholders provided an in-depth perspective on the project scope.
2.
We added real-time candidate research and a unique user profiling to create a Hiring Process prototype by means of a rapid co-creation approach. Weekly iterations allowed smart Europe to sign off on the initial prototype within a few weeks.
3.
The entire design process was 100% feedback-driven: The Hiring Process emerged from continuous engagement with internal and external users.

Complete and valuable insights
" In the interview, I was more relaxed because I had enough information to make my case. I was sure I wanted the job and I was sure I wanted to work for this company. Ultimately, the complete and valuable insights were very important for me as a candidate, and in my situation, this was the differentiator. "
