Randstad Digital developed a workforce strategy tailored to the client’s hiring challenges, ensuring a steady pipeline of specialized talent in AV design, engineering, and esports.

We achieved this through:

  • targeted talent acquisition: Conducted market research to identify talent pools in Raleigh, NC, where IT and engineering professionals were more accessible and cost-effective than in their headquarters. Built direct sourcing channels for roles like AV Designers, Hardware Developers, Application Engineers, and Technical Trainers.
  • dedicated recruiting framework: Implemented a structured hiring process, assigning dedicated account managers and technical recruiters specialized in AV technology and engineering disciplines. This ensured a deep understanding of role requirements and corporate culture.
  • strategic workforce planning: Analyzed the client’s long-term product roadmap to provide proactive workforce recommendations, helping them scale teams ahead of demand rather than reacting to staffing shortages.
  • data-driven hiring decisions: Leveraged analytics to refine candidate selection, optimizing job descriptions, compensation benchmarking, and role-specific assessments to improve placement quality and retention.
