Solution
As part of BP's global upstream recruiting team, we developed strategies and creative elements that helped BP make a positive impression on top quality recruits around the world. Our work consisted of collateral production and promotions for recruitment marketing events, local market advertising campaigns, and assistance developing BP's Employment Referral Program (ERP).
Results
Thanks to the combined efforts of the three firms involved, BP exceeded it's hiring goals and even achieved an 85% applicant acceptance rate, indicating that the marketing reached qualified recruits very effectively. Additionally, use of BP's ERP increased from 2% to 17% in just one year's time. BP's recruitment and retention success has arguably played an important role in helping the company rebuild its corporate image.
