Problem: Lack of active participation by employees

The company was in a difficult situation. It was using a competitor’s digital referral tool, which offered a digital process but generated little employee engagement, and the company was facing recruitment challenges, particularly when filling IT roles and evergreen positions.

400+ employees registered in the first few weeks

The company opted for Sprad and started with a successful pilot project, which was eventually extended to the entire company. The process is fully automated. New employees were automatically invited to Sprad and former employees were archived accordingly, and with the support of the Sprad Customer Success Team, one in five employees was signed up within a short space of time. One year later, more than one in three employees was already actively involved.

Result: High level of active use by employees

The response to the Sprad employee referral program has been overwhelming: 40% of users return to the platform every month. 100+ network connections result in a talent pool of over 40,000 talents. In the first 12 months, an impressive 600 referrals were generated and 46 positions were successfully filled with referrals. Sprad has proven to be a valuable tool for digital recruitment and employee engagement.
