Josh Elliott, a Talent Acquisition Partner at Hudson RPO, knew the challenges of finding the best candidates for his client all too well. In an industry where niche skills and high turnover rates were common, Josh needed a reliable tool to help him source quality candidates efficiently. That's when he turned to FactoryFix.

Hudson RPO had already recognized the potential of FactoryFix by establishing an account, but it was only recently that Josh began using the platform extensively for his manufacturing and labor roles. "I was aware of FactoryFix before and had used it to pull market data for hiring manager meetings, but hadn't posted jobs myself," Josh explained.

Within just a few days of posting a role on FactoryFix, Josh was impressed by the quality of the candidates he received. "FactoryFix was definitely a super big help in terms of my workflow," he said, noting how the platform automated the process of bringing candidates to him, saving significant time that would otherwise have been spent on manual sourcing.

One of the other standout features for Josh was the market data provided by FactoryFix, which he used to have data-driven discussions with hiring managers about expanding salary ranges. "It actually ended up allowing me to bring that to a hiring manager, start those conversations, and expand the salary range, which was really, really cool to see," he recounted. "That all came from the data that [FactoryFix] provided."

For staffing and RPO professionals, the ability to access accurate market data and use it to consult with clients is invaluable. FactoryFix's data empowered Josh to demonstrate his expertise and add value to his client relationships.
