TRANSFORMING RECRUITMENT EFFICIENCY FOR WOODIES DIY
Woodie’s DIY, a renowned Irish DIY and home improvement retailing company with over thirty stores nationwide, faced a significant recruitment challenge during their Christmas busy season. They needed to swiftly hire 40 store staff across multiple locations in Ireland, including contract and permanent positions with varying shift patterns.

Founded in 1987, Woodie’s DIY has established itself as a leader in the home improvement sector in Ireland. Their dedication to quality products and exceptional customer service has driven their nationwide success.

RECRUITMENT CHALLENGES
Woodie’s HR team, already managing a small team, was inundated with a high volume of job applications from their recruitment efforts. The timing was critical, as the competitive market meant that prompt responses were essential to secure top talent. Without timely responses, candidates were likely to accept other job offers.

Client Feedback

“Woodies went through a period of growth and my HR team needed help screening applications coming from our job advertisements. Rent a Recruiter approached us and after a conversation to find out how they could add value, they ended up supporting us for 2 months and filled 40 store positions for us around Ireland. This was a huge help to my HR team and it allowed us to focus our time elsewhere. They were very efficient and got to grips with our systems very quickly. I would have no hesitation in recommending Yala and we’ll certainly be reaching out to them again.”
