The Challenge

Breaking Free from Legacy Systems

Capgemini, a global leader in consulting and technology services, knows that recruiting top talent is essential for maintaining its competitive edge. However, traditional recruitment methods often leave HR teams buried in manual tasks and fragmented tools hence struggling to keep up with the demands of modern hiring. The need to swiftly identify and secure the best candidates from a high volume of applications was paramount, yet outdated systems hindered efficiency and effectiveness.

Every year we recruit new candidates from student positions to executive positions, and we receive lots of applications every day, so we have to quickly identify the best talent.

The Solution

AI-Driven Recruitment with MakiPeople

To overcome these challenges, Capgemini partnered with MakiPeople, leveraging AI-powered recruitment solutions to revolutionize their hiring process. MakiPeople's platform transformed recruitment which went from an administrative burden to a strategic advantage by embedding AI-driven intelligence into every step of the hiring workflow.

Before using Maki, the platform we used was a bit clunky. We had to enter our internal HR website to send tests and wait around 48 hours for results. With Maki, the process has been streamlined, making it much more efficient and less time-consuming, with real-time results.

By integrating MakiPeople, Capgemini has reduced its recruitment process to just 10 days, replacing traditional technical interviews with comprehensive AI-driven assessments. This shift has allowed the company to secure top talent more swiftly, ensuring critical roles are filled without prolonged vacancies.
