Transforming Recruitment: apna.co's Swift Solution for an Emerging Bank

In a high-stakes race against time, an emerging bank faced the formidable challenge of building a robust recruiting team from scratch in just two weeks. With only one recruiter at their disposal, they were grappling with limited resources and an urgent need to onboard 20 recruiters. This is where apna.co stepped in as the catalyst for change, offering an innovative solution that not only met the bank's requirements but exceeded expectations.

The Challenge

The bank's recruitment team was faced with a daunting task - to hire 20 recruiters within a mere two-week timeframe. The constraints were clear - a single recruiter could only do so much in such a short span. Traditional methods of hiring would not suffice. A fresh, unconventional approach was required.
