The challenge

Meet urgent tech recruiting demand with limited resources

Trine University experienced remarkable growth over a span of three years, primarily in the technology and engineering sectors. The university moved quickly to hire a substantial number of Adjunct Professors with advanced qualifications and extensive tech industry experience. In addition to being limited in resources and time, the university was challenged by the level of tech expertise needed to vet candidates.

The solution

Collaboration with Dice Sourcing Services

Trine’s Office of Human Resources had previously worked with Dice Sourcing Services to recruit IT professionals and reached out to see if the company was willing to collaborate together to find adjunct faculty in engineering and technology. Dice accepted the challenge and provided a tech recruiter to partner with Trine’s staff to strategically market the position, source talent and visually screen candidates. The Dice recruiter’s experience in tech recruiting sped up the hiring process and ensured every candidate presented met Trine’s qualifications.

The results

59 offers accepted within just 4.5 months

Dice’s tech recruiter provided over 100 qualified Adjunct Professors resulting in an impressive 59 offers accepted in less than five months. This accomplishment empowered Trine to consistently meet their ongoing hiring demands with a team of top-notch professors who could teach highly specialized tech skills, ensuring their commitment to delivering an exceptional educational experience, which has always been their most important priority.
