Meet, Joe
Joe is a data-driven sales and marketing lead with a background in tech and a passion for AI, analytics, and innovation. Now working in a fast-growing consultancy tackling complex challenges in high-hazard industries, Joe knows a thing or two about precision and efficiency.
The Challenge
After taking a well-earned break from his previous role, Joe jumped back into the job market and quickly hit the usual hurdles. Endless application forms. Repetitive data entry. Radio silence.
“You can’t just submit a CV these days. You’re having to custom fill out huge bits of information every single time,” Joe said. “Lots of [applications] just go off into the ether. You hear no response back, no acknowledgement.”
Sound familiar? For Joe, it was déjà vu…
The Solution
Then came Employment Hero’s SmartMatch.
“It got me the best match… exactly what I was looking for,” Joe said. “Previous platforms were getting me poor matches that weren’t really relevant or at the right level.”
Within days of applying, Joe was contacted for his first interview. By week 3, after many rounds of interviews, he was offered the role.
And for the first time, he could track every stage of his application with Employment Hero’s Applicant Tracking System – no guesswork or waiting in the dark.
“It was a very quick and efficient process. I had clear visibility on the progress of my application – I knew exactly where I stood.”
Why It Matters
Recruitment doesn’t have to be a black box. Employment Hero connects the right people to the right roles faster, smarter, and with more heart.
“It was a very clear and concise tool that can match people very well,” Joe said. “Start to finish, it was smooth and transparent.”
Because when recruitment is this smooth, everyone wins.
