Managing multiple open positions requires consistent candidate engagement, timely interview coordination, and close collaboration with hiring managers—all while maintaining an effective recruiting process. For a leading provider of payroll, human resources, and human capital management (HCM) solutions, a hiring initiative involving more than 300 open positions created a need for additional recruiting capacity. The organization partnered with Hire Velocity for supplemental recruiting support through a flexible Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) engagement. **Case Study at a Glance:** During a four-month engagement, Hire Velocity supported a large-scale sales hiring initiative that resulted in 44 offers extended, 34 confirmed starts, and four additional candidates in pre-employment, pending their start dates. ## The Challenge: Managing Increased Hiring Demand Across Sales Roles The client provides payroll, HR, employee benefits, and HCM solutions to businesses across the United States. Its sales organization connects employers with services designed to support workforce management and business operations. The company was managing a significant hiring initiative involving more than 300 open positions across several sales-focused roles, including: - Channel Sales Associate – CPA Centric - Mid-Market Sales Consultant - Inside Sales Representative - Executive Mid-Market HCM Consultant Each position involved different sales responsibilities, customer relationships, and areas of expertise. Recruiting across these roles required an understanding of the qualifications hiring managers were seeking, along with consistent communication throughout the hiring process. With multiple positions moving through recruitment simultaneously, the internal talent acquisition team needed additional resources to manage candidate activity and maintain progress toward its hiring objectives. The goal was to expand recruiting capacity without disrupting established processes or replacing the internal recruiting function. ## The Solution: Supplemental Recruiting Support for High-Volume Sales Hiring Hire Velocity partnered with the organization from July through October 2026, providing supplemental recruiting support through an RPO engagement designed to complement the client's internal talent acquisition team. Rather than operating as a separate recruiting function, Hire Velocity worked alongside the existing team, assisting with recruiting coordination, candidate communication, and hiring manager collaboration. This approach allowed the client to increase recruiting capacity while continuing to use its established hiring systems and processes. ### Streamlining Recruiting Coordination High-volume hiring requires more than identifying potential candidates. Each open position involves application reviews, interview scheduling, candidate follow-ups, and ongoing coordination. Hire Velocity supported these activities by assisting with resume reviews, interview scheduling, and candidate communication. Managing these responsibilities provided additional recruiting bandwidth during the hiring ramp, allowing internal recruiters to devote more attention to evaluating candidates and supporting hiring decisions. ### Maintaining Communication With Hiring Managers Effective recruiting requires alignment between recruiters and the managers responsible for making hiring decisions. Throughout the engagement, Hire Velocity maintained communication with hiring managers to clarify position requirements, coordinate next steps, and respond to feedback. This collaboration helped connect day-to-day recruiting activities with the needs of individual sales teams. It also supported adjustments to recruiting priorities as hiring requirements evolved. ### Working Within Existing Recruiting Systems An important component of the partnership was Hire Velocity's ability to operate within the client's established recruiting environment. Access to the client's applicant tracking system (ATS) supported coordination between Hire Velocity and the internal talent acquisition team. Working within the same system helped maintain visibility into candidate activity and recruiting progress without introducing disconnected workflows. This demonstrated how supplemental recruiting support can complement an organization's existing recruiting infrastructure rather than requiring an entirely new process. ## The Results: 34 Confirmed Starts in Four Months From July through October 2026, Hire Velocity supported the client's sales hiring initiative and delivered measurable recruiting outcomes. **Key results included:** - **44 offers extended** to candidates - **34 confirmed starts** during the engagement - **4 additional candidates** in pre-employment, pending their start dates - **4 months of recruiting support** across multiple sales positions These outcomes reflect Hire Velocity's contribution to the broader hiring initiative involving more than 300 open positions. The engagement also provided ongoing support for candidate coordination and hiring manager communication, helping the client's internal recruiting team manage increased hiring activity. While the confirmed starts represent the most tangible outcome, the partnership also illustrates the operational role supplemental recruiting resources can play during periods of elevated hiring demand. ## The Impact: Expanding Recruiting Capacity Without Replacing Internal Teams For organizations with established talent acquisition departments, recruitment outsourcing does not always mean transferring the entire hiring process to an external provider. Supplemental RPO offers a different approach: adding recruiting resources where they are needed while allowing internal teams to retain ownership of their hiring strategy and decisions. In this engagement, Hire Velocity supported recruiting operations by managing coordination activities, maintaining candidate communication, and collaborating with hiring managers. This additional capacity allowed internal recruiters to focus more closely on evaluating talent and supporting hiring decisions. At the conclusion of the engagement, the client provided an overall positive assessment of Hire Velocity's support. Both teams also reviewed lessons learned and identified opportunities to strengthen communication and recruiting processes in future collaborations. ## What This Case Study Demonstrates About Supplemental RPO Not every recruiting challenge requires a new hiring strategy. Sometimes, organizations already have experienced recruiters, established processes, and effective technology but need additional resources to manage increased hiring demand. This distinction is particularly important for companies navigating temporary hiring surges or recruiting across multiple positions simultaneously. **Supplemental Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) allows organizations to expand recruiting capacity by integrating external recruiting resources with their existing talent acquisition teams.** These resources can support candidate coordination, interview scheduling, hiring manager communication, and other recruiting activities without replacing established internal processes. However, successful supplemental RPO involves more than simply adding recruiters. External partners must understand hiring priorities, communicate effectively with internal stakeholders, and operate within the organization's existing recruiting environment. For this payroll and HR solutions provider, Hire Velocity's collaborative approach supported 34 confirmed starts in four months while complementing the client's internal recruiting function. The broader lesson is that **scaling recruitment doesn't always require building a larger internal team. It can mean adding the right recruiting support at the right time.** ## Download the Case Study See the key highlights from this engagement in our downloadable case study, including the hiring challenge, Hire Velocity's approach, and the results achieved.
