Samolet Group implemented Skillaz in just a 1,5 month

Samolet Group implemented Skillaz in just a 1,5 month

Objective
To replace an ATS with another solution within a month and a half seamlessly for Samolet Group's staff
  • Accumulated history. The existing software took 6 months to implement and was used for 2 years.

  • Changes to the terms of reference. When a project begins, it's not always clear what the final process should look like.

  • Complex processes, configuration, role model and hierarchy.

  • A very tight deadline.
Challenges with the project
  • Integrating the ATS into a complex HR automation eco-system.

  • Developing and strengthening the HR brand.

  • Creating simple, user-friendly services for all participants.

  • Taking HR processes to a new level.
Samolet Group guidelines
Solution
To launch an MVP, a minimum viable product, should meet critical recruitment needs so that recruitment at Samolet Group continues and has to be done manually within a month and a half.

Performance

  • 1
    MVP
    Over a period of a month and a half, a solution replacing the vital functions of current software was implemented and launched seamlessly.
  • 2
    Seamless transition
    Recruiters continued to work with all Skillaz candidates without losing any data.
  • 3
    Fail-safe operation
    The solution was implemented in time, helping Samolet Group to continue automated recruitment without disruption.
  • 4
    Improved candidate path
    The candidate path is now more modern and friendly.
  • 5
    Convenience for managers
    The recruitment process is now more transparent and convenient for managers.
  • 6
    Candidate engagement
    Candidates are now more engaged at the recruitment stage thanks to automated offer negotiation.
  • 100 000
    Candidates from the old database were migrated to Skillaz
  • ~5000
    User accounts were created
  • ~2500
    Applications were created by hiring managers
  • ~1000
    Employees were hired since the launch
It's a myth that implementing such a solution requires a large development team and significant financial and time resources. A team is needed, of course. However, it's better to have a small, highly professional team, as we had in our case study.

What do the project participants say?
  • Elena Kulagina
    Head of Employee Services Department, Samolet Group
    We initially understood that the project in its ideal form cannot be implemented 100%, and we were actually ready for recruitment to be needed to be done manually, but that didn't happen. Thanks to our coordinated cooperation with our colleagues, we made a seamless transition to Skillaz. Now, we have ambitious plans for development and upgrades.
  • Andrey Sinyakin
    Skillaz Project Office Manager
    We're very pleased to have had the experience of implementing a project that would normally have taken at least 6 months in 7 weeks. The training and professionalism of the Samolet Group team was the key to our success.
