Client Profile

SC Services, a Michigan-based demolition and construction firm founded in 2008, specializes in residential and commercial projects with a skilled team of around 30. Positioned for significant growth, the company plans to expand fivefold over the next decade. Hoops partnered with SC Services to streamline and scale their talent acquisition, providing advanced technology, expert support, and a flexible approach to meet their workforce needs across various roles. This collaboration enhanced recruitment efficiency, supporting their growth while allowing the company to focus on its core business operations.

The Solution

Hoops provided a flexible annual subscription model, expert recruitment team support, strategic onboarding and job positioning, and an automationdriven collaborative platform.

  • Flexible Annual Subscription Model

    Hoops proposed an annual subscription service that provided access to both their software platform and expert team. This model included a variable spending budget adjustable on a month-to-month basis, allowing SC Services to control costs while maintaining consistent access to recruitment resources. This approach enabled them to budget for annual costs effectively, avoid expensive ad hoc headhunter services, and always have an experienced team at their disposal.

  • Expert Recruitment Team and Targeted Marketing

    Hoops provided a dedicated Client Success Manager with extensive recruitment experience across various disciplines. This expert, supported by a diverse client success team, conducted thorough market analysis and leveraged programmatic advertising to identify optimal channels for each unique role. This tailored approach ensured that job postings reached the right audience efficiently, adapting strategies based on where to find ideal talent for each position.

  • Strategic Onboarding and Job Positioning

    The Hoops team led SC Services through a comprehensive onboarding process, conducting in-depth market analysis to support tailored recommendations. This strategic alignment went beyond traditional recruitment, helping SC Services define nebulous roles, optimize job titles, structure competitive compensation/benefits packages, and identify the best hiring locations. Hoops' expertise in defining and positioning roles effectively addressed SC Services' challenges in structuring new and undefined positions.

  • Automation and Collaborative Platform

    Hoops implemented its proprietary platform, featuring HULA AI and automation, to streamline recruitment while maximizing time and cost efficiency. This all-in-one system handled applications, automated knock-outs, stored resumes, tracked candidate statuses, and provided real-time insights. Automated workflows managed thousands of tasks, like messaging, while weekly accountability calls kept hiring managers aligned, ensuring a seamless, data-driven, and highly efficient hiring process.

The Results

Enhanced recruitment efficiency with reduced time-to-fill metrics, quality talent acquisition from a selective screening process, significant time savings, improved budget management, and a scalable partnership that adapted to the company's growing needs.

  • Significant Time Savings

    Hoops's strategic interventions reduced SC Services' time-to-fill metrics. For instance, an Account Manager position was filled with a Time-to-Find of 9 days and a Time-to-Fill of 34 days, surpassing industry standards.
  • Strengthened Employer Brand

    Starting with a single role, the partnership quickly expanded to managing multiple positions simultaneously, demonstrating Hoops' ability to scale with SC Services' growing needs.
  • Cost Reduction

    The flexible annual subscription service allowed SC Services to manage recruitment costs effectively throughout the year, avoiding the high expenses associated with unplanned and costly headhunter services.
  • Quality Talent Acquisition

    SC Services utilized Hoops' professional team for job market research, job postings, candidate communications management, application screening, resume reviews, phone screenings, weekly reporting, and more, enhanced by the HULA AI/Automation software. HULA automation managed 8,859 tasks, including specific screening and knockout questions that automated 775 screening actions. Thanks to Hoops’ combined people and technology efforts, approximately 366 hours were saved by SC Services for the first five hires.
  • Faster Time-to-Fill

    Out of 1,198 applications across multiple roles, Hoops screened and presented the top 7.43% (89 applications), resulting in five hires for difficult positions within the first four months of working with Hoops. This selective approach ensured SC Services accessed a pool of highly qualified candidates aligned with their organizational goals.

Partnership Response

My philosophy has always been that any business can be distilled down into people and processes. If you have the right people and understood processes you can accomplish great things. Hoops HR has been an invaluable partner with the recruitment of quality and qualified people to our team. The Hoops team takes the time to really understand the needs of your organization and leverages advanced screening technology and tenured professionals to present to you the very best candidates they can find. A huge hassle of recruiting is the large amount of time needed to filter through hundreds of unqualified resumes and then conduct phone screens before having a talent pool that is actually worth the time to interview and consider for a position, Hoops takes all that hassle off of your plate and streamlines the process so you can stay focused on operating your business. We had used traditional recruiting methods in the past whether it be our own Indeed and Ziprecruiter posts or expensive full time headhunters/recruiters and Hoops runs circles around all of them, delivering exceedingly more value at a fraction of the cost. We have made numerous hires already through Hoops and truly see them as a long term partner to our team.
