A New Approach to Recruiting
What We Heard

In the past few years, many businesses have been affected by the labor shortage, and Cardinal Glass was not immune to that labor shortage. They approached JH in a situation where they had been forced to turn away sales dollars as a result of not having enough man power to keep up with production.

Cardinal Glass needed a way to attract qualified workers and stand out from the traditional recruitment methods that their competition have been using (billboards, “Hiring” signage, Sign-On Bonuses, etc.)

Our Approach

Working with JH, a micro-site dedicated to hiring was developed providing prospective employees the opportunity to do their research and learn more about what it is like working at Cardinal Glass. But as Patrick Florea mentions in our Life After Launch video, “If you build it, they will come only happens in the movies.”

So, JH created an advocate based recruitment strategy where Cardinal Glass employees were our biggest advocates and social influencers sharing why they get out of bed and enjoy working at Cardinal each and every day.
