The Job to be done

While the waterdrop® HR team was still growing and fully engaged in different projects, they were running out of recruiting capacity. pplwise supported with a fully embedded 0.5 FTE Talent Partner to hire across various crucial business functions from HR and Marketing to Finance and Supply Chain.

The Approach

The pplwise Talent Partner was driving the whole recruitment process End-to-End for active and passive talent. The initial focus was on 5 Account Management roles and changed in their second month to a completely different set of roles. The Talent Partner was able to adapt efficiently to several changes made throughout the collaboration and came up with quick solutions.

The Result

In total, 1,026 candidates were sourced and 173 interviews conducted, leading to 12 offers and 9 successful hires – with a cost per hire of 5,787€. Despite a short break in between (due to hiring need), the collaboration proved so strong that waterdrop® chose to re-engage with pplwise for a second term, underscoring the trust and value established during our partnership.

What our client says

“Everyone involved was super friendly, super helpful right off the bat. It was just super easy to work with them.
