This strategic shift aimed to enhance efficiency in recruitment marketing, providing improved visibility into operations across multiple markets.
Enter SmartDreamers: Our AI-powered recruitment marketing platform resonated with bp's data-driven approach and helped them with:

Consolidating global recruitment marketing operations
Operating on a global scale, bp is engaged in large-scale recruitment marketing efforts, necessitating the participation of numerous teams in the process. To bring all these operations together within a unified software solution, we’ve implemented a structured approach to account setup. This involves an admin account managed by the HQ team, complemented by 12 additional sub-accounts, each tailored to specific regions.
The outcome of this approach is the transformation of what was once a highly fragmented recruitment marketing ecosystem into a centralized and streamlined system seamlessly integrated within the SmartDreamers platform. This unified structure enhances efficiency, coordination, and data management across all facets of bp's global recruitment marketing efforts.
Scaling recruitment marketing as a core component of talent acquisition strategy
For bp, recruitment marketing and employer branding are not isolated, short-term initiatives; rather, they constitute an ongoing and integral part of the company's talent acquisition strategy. This approach recognizes that recruitment marketing is not just a one-time effort but a continuous process that plays a pivotal role in attracting top talent.
By leveraging the power of recruitment marketing, bp extends its reach to a broader and more diverse audience while also enhancing the pace at which it can hire candidates worldwide. This strategy ensures that the company is not only able to identify and engage with a wide range of potential candidates but also maintain a steady and efficient flow of new talent into the organization. In essence, recruitment marketing becomes a driving force behind bp's sustained success in talent acquisition. We are privileged to bring the element of technology within bp’s success story.
