Problem

Eaton kept candidate profiles and job openings in disconnected systems. Recruiters struggled to match existing talent pools with vacancies, while lengthy applications contributed to candidate drop-off.

Approach

Eaton deployed Eightfold to connect recruiting workflows and match candidates with roles using their skills and potential. Recruiters ranked candidate matches and gained visibility into internal talent. The rollout also simplified the application experience.
