The Client

KCG Companies is a mixed-use and multifamily housing developer based in Indianapolis, IN.

The Situation 

KCG was experiencing rapid and aggressive strategic growth, expanding their portfolio both onsite at properties and corporate. Due to the pace of expansion, they lacked the bandwidth to cover their recruiting needs, leading to delays in response time and in filling open roles.

The organization sought a partner who could improve response times and reduce the pressure on employees to fill seats quickly. They also wanted to ensure a positive candidate experience that would represent KCG well.

The Solution

Purple Ink provided outsourced recruiting services for KCG, working within the organization’s systems and acting as part of their team to support their recruiting efforts. We quickly integrated into KCG’s systems and build strong relationships with the KCG team by maintaining a good cadence of feedback and communication with hiring managers. Constant proactive communication helped create a smooth transition for new hires.

The Outcome

As a result of our work, KCG made several quick hires within six weeks. Response times improved, candidate experience was enhanced, and the organization had a positive experience working with us. As open requisitions decreased, they began the process of hiring another person on their talent acquisition team. Having a lower volume of positions to fill, KCG had the time to hire the right person for the talent acquisition role without pressure to fill the seat quickly.
