Optimizing Production & Quality Control Hiring
A leading manufacturer in the life sciences industry faced ongoing challenges in recruiting and retaining high-quality Production and QC employees. Frequent turnover and slow hiring times threatened to disrupt production schedules, putting additional strain on HR and hiring managers. In response, the client sought a staffing partner to provide efficiency and long-term workforce stability.
Joulé, a System One subsidiary, partnered with the client in 2017, and by 2022, had become an onsite staffing partner. Through daily communication with the HR team and a hands-on approach to contractor engagement, Joulé became an extension of the client’s workforce management team.
Joulé’s ability to rapidly source, screen, and present high-quality candidates made an immediate impact. By tapping into its vast network of talent and leveraging advanced hiring platforms, Joulé streamlined the onboarding process, filling positions efficiently without compromising quality. Most roles began as six-month contract-to-hire positions, with a high percentage of successful conversions to direct employment.
Beyond recruitment, Joulé enhanced the contractor experience through several initiatives, including quarterly business reviews, contractor appreciation days, and direct engagement with the client’s employees through social events. Additionally, Joulé implemented a monthly newsletter to keep contractors informed and engaged, creating a workplace culture that prioritized communication and retention.
Time-to-fill, conversion, and turnover rates improved significantly thanks to the partnership. Lastly, many new hires now come through referrals, due to the positive contractor experience Joulé has cultivated.
“We’ve worked with Joulé since 2017, and since 2022, Joulé has been our onsite staffing partner. They have been a valuable asset to our team. Joulé is excellent at communicating with HR as well as our direct hiring managers. Joulé goes above and beyond to make sure our hiring needs are fulfilled. We look forward to continuing to grow our partnership with Joulé over the coming years.”
