Initial Challenges

‍

Goodyear was using another vendor management system that did not offer global services. With agency needs in North America, LATAM, EMEA, and APAC, their global divisions were left to fend for themselves. Gaining visibility into total global spend and agency performance was impossible…until they switched to RecruitiFi.

Strategic Shift and Positive Outcomes

‍

Global 

Goodyear had agencies in dozens of countries spread across four continents. Their prior VMS only offered U.S. capabilities, so they had no way to manage their existing agencies or find and vet new global agencies. With RecruitFi, they can not only manage their entire global agency workflows through a single platform, they gained access to the RecruitiFi global community of curated agencies. The RecruitiFi community fills nearly 50% of roles on the platform at a deep discount to the local agency rates in countries around the world.

‍

Consolidation

Prior to RecruitiFi, Goodyear had dozens of different processes for contracting, engaging, paying, and receiving candidates from agencies that were fragmented across different regions and divisions. RecruitiFi allowed Goodyear to consolidate their global agency processes to one vendor for billing, one set of terms, one platform for all agency communications, and one source for all agency candidates.

Visibility & Reporting

For the first time ever, Goodyear was able to gain true visibility into metrics like global spend, spend by division, time-to-hire, agency performance, and hundreds of other valuable numbers. RecruitiFi’s real-time reporting helped Goodyear make data-driven decisions regarding their third-party agency usage.
