Difficulties in attracting qualified candidates for Solarix's sales role

Solarix is a dynamic company at the forefront of the renewable energy revolution. Specializing in transforming buildings into sustainable energy hubs, Solarix leads the charge in integrating stylish solar panels to power modern structures efficiently.

However, even pioneering companies face challenges, Solarix faced a daunting challenge as their critical Account Manager position remained unfilled for an extended time, causing potential revenue losses each month. 

The few applicants they did receive were not suitable matches, which kept the position urgently open and compounded the problem. This ongoing vacancy not only increased pressure on the existing team, thereby affecting their productivity and morale but also meant lost revenue opportunities. Each month without a suitable hire translated into considerable financial losses, severely impacting Solarix’s growth trajectory.

Speed, efficiency and quality

To address the specific challenges faced by Solarix, we developed a strategy that concentrated on three key areas: actively headhunting top talent within the sector, strategically advertising job openings to reach a broad audience, and optimizing our existing talent pool in the renewable energy sector.

This approach enabled us to swiftly respond to Solarix's staffing needs by not only identifying potential candidates but also actively engaging with them. Additionally, we leveraged our network within the renewable energy industry to effectively promote job vacancies to suitable candidates, resulting in efficient and targeted filling of the open positions.
