CHALLENGE

We partnered with multiple business lines within the Stagwell group of companies including Forsman & Bodenfors (KBS+), MDC Ventures, Crispin, Media Kitchen, KWT Global (HL Group), Assembly, Anomaly, and Doner who had varying needs across each business. Ranging from making new hires as they endeavored to grow each business. We often worked closely with both the HR/Talent leader as well as their leadership teams. With each hiring leader we setup a crisp process to ensure we would find and hire the best people regardless of job function or level (Manager, Director or VP).

ACTION

For each role (over 50 in total) we set a clear, transparent and accountable process:

  • Week 1 we start to put together the talent map and begin to build the candidate pipeline
  • Week 2 we setup interviews with the hiring manager
  • Week 3 would be 2nd, 3rd and final rounds interviews with the team
  • Week 4 we would complete interviews and/or have hired the best person for the open role

RESULT

Engro Partners found hundreds of ideal candidates and helped Stagwell’s companies (Forsman & Bodenfors (KBS+), MDC Ventures, Crispin, Media Kitchen, KWT Global (HL Group), Assembly, Anomaly, and Doner) hire over 50 high-performing leaders and contributors.
