Regional Agricultural Supply Cooperative Expands Recruiting with SAP SuccessFactors Career Site Builder
A regional agricultural supply cooperative based in the Midwest operates across more than 40 U.S. states and Ontario, Canada. Known for its strong network of member cooperatives, this organization has been serving the agricultural and energy sectors for over a century, providing premium products and a commitment to business integrity.
With thousands of employees and significant annual revenue, the cooperative leverages its buying power and extensive terminal network to meet the unique needs of its cooperatives and retailers, ensuring they receive unparalleled support and value-added services.
The Challenge
As the organization grew, so did the need for supporting business operational roles like accounting, technology, human resources, and marketing. To fill these new non-agricultural roles, the cooperative needed to reach a broader pool of candidates who didn’t have farming experience.
Project Goals
The cooperative aimed to transform how it recruited candidates by implementing SAP SuccessFactors Career Site Builder. Key objectives included providing clear information on roles that don’t require agricultural expertise, enabling mobile access to job listings, enhancing search functionality for candidates, and integrating with the existing SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting Management module.
Chosen Solution
The cooperative selected SAP SuccessFactors Career Site Builder and partnered with Rizing to implement the solution.
Why Rizing?
Rizing’s deep understanding of the client’s needs and extensive preparation impressed the organization. Rizing came prepared with ideas, pre-built page templates, and a solid implementation plan tailored to the requirements.
Comprehensive Training
Training was a major focus to ensure the recruiting team could effectively manage and update the new career site content post go-live. The organization also worked closely with Rizing to handle role-based permissions across its many recruiting locations. With better analytics and an improved interface, the cooperative can optimize recruiting efforts to find top talent, regardless of agricultural experience.
Business Outcome
With Career Site Builder, the cooperative now provides a seamless, user-friendly, mobile experience to candidates across its brands. Going forward, the organization can optimize recruiting efforts using advanced analytics made possible by the integration between Recruiting Management and its career sites.
