Anticipating a pandemic-driven surge in demand in Ontario, a healthcare services industry client turned to Robertson to help grow its frontline patient-facing resources in a tight, 60-day timeframe. Working alongside the client’s specialists, Robertson created a program to capture specialized job knowledge, standardize and streamline the recruitment process, go live in the field, and provide real-time reporting — all in just two weeks.
As the demand surged mid-assignment, the client twice increased its overall requirement, almost doubling the initial requisition to more than 250 positions, while also adding a third location in Saskatchewan.
Working together, Robertson slashed the client’s expected time-to-hire by more than 50 per cent, halved the cost of vacancy, and reduced the cost of hiring by more than 60 per cent. With support from Robertson, our client also enhanced its recruiting processes and now attracts and retains better candidates. More importantly, our client exceeded its own customers’ expectations on response time, quality, and cost in a period of unprecedented challenge.

Our client, a cannabis company, turned to Robertson to provide a turnkey solution to its temporary hiring needs. Located in a remote part of Ontario, and with a small in-house recruitment team, our client needed a partner with resources and experience to create and manage multiple sourcing strategies to meet its tight timelines.
Anticipating a spike in consumption of products in late 2020/early 2021, the client contracted Robertson to recruit 50 temporary production labourers within four weeks, and to manage payroll for the production workers. It was also hoping to increase first day turnout, which had averaged only 50%.
Robertson analyzed the demographic landscape and utilized the client’s existing ATS database and community outreach to create a two-pronged approach. We also used off-shore sourcing support and on-shore recruiters to create a 16/5 work schedule to ensure coverage in all areas and meet target and timeline demands.
Robertson exceeded our client’s expectations. All 50 hires were made by the 3rd training date and the first day attendance rate was 95%.
