Opportunity

Arcadis came to Connectr to help attract the best construction talent, and increase brand awareness for their non-construction roles. Connectr helped them do just this, and more.

Implementation

We worked with Arcadis to give prospective graduates and apprentices access to information, through Connectr’s platform, to help them explore what a career at Arcadis might look like. This included digital mentoring, which allowed candidates to speak directly to current employees. We put an emphasis on interactive content, and topics that resonated well with talent, including:

  • Quizzes, videos and blogs
  • Wellbeing content and Mental Health Ambassadors
  • Showcasing innovation at Arcadis

Impact

  • 2,264 users of our candidate onboarding platform
  • 916 mentor/mentee interactions
  • 41% increase in female hires
  • 41%

    increase in female hires

Connectr have been an invaluable partner to us over the past few years. Their external expertise brings a wealth of knowledge to me and my team. They successfully helped us navigate attracting and hiring apprentices, which was brand new and a little daunting to us at the time. They are friendly and approachable to work with and now genuinely feel like a trusted extension of our in-house team!
