Customer interview with Doreen Hemmann, former Recruiting Team Lead at a large company

From black-box recruiting to a transparent success story: how Doreen Hemmann transformed her processes with mana HR

In this customer interview, Doreen Hemmann, former Recruiting Team Lead at a large company, describes how she finally brought clarity to the recruiting chaos with mana HR. And how she cut the average process time by a full 50%.

Before mana HR came in, recruiting was often a guessing game. Outdated systems, a lack of transparency, poor communication with departments and data-protection concerns shaped everyday work. Candidates got lost in the process, and responses came too late. Or never at all.

mana HR changed all of that. The software won Doreen and her team over with intuitive handling, measurable KPIs and a genuine partnership during onboarding. What mattered most to her was that mana HR adapts to existing processes. Not the other way around. The result: a custom-built dashboard, clear responsibilities, transparent communication and a more effective recruiting process.

"Manchmal ist man so mit Scheuklappen unterwegs. Aber wenn man gemeinsam mit einem Partner wie mana HR diskutiert, entdeckt man ganz neue Möglichkeiten." - Doreen Hemmann

(English meaning: "Sometimes you go through your day with blinkers on. But when you talk things through with a partner like mana HR, you discover completely new possibilities.")
