Bentley recruitment

Bentley goes online to secure talent.

Legendary British car manufacturer Bentley has used StepStone’s e-recruitment solutions to recruit skilled craftsmen and engineers as part of a programme to design and manufacture a new wave of luxury, high-performance cars. 

The luxury car brand dumped its previous, paper-intensive recruitment process to create a brand new recruitment portal, www.bentleycareers.com, which is expected to slash hiring costs by 40 per cent, as it places renewed focus on attracting talented engineers in a highly competitive market. 
 
The StepStone solution allows applicants to apply online for vacancies across the globe, or register for email job alerts, whilst enabling resourcing teams to handle the entire recruitment process online, reducing the administrative burden whilst increasing time to hire.

Board member for Bentley personnel, Christine Gaskell, said: "Our new e-recruitment system will enhance our ability to attract high-level people from around the world. It will enable Bentley managers to track applications securely and enable us to align our recruitment process with the innovative technological leadership found elsewhere in Bentley."
