Customer Interview with Wencke Pietschmann, Wilhelm Linnenbecker GmbH & Co. KG

From Handcart to Recruiting Rocket: The Success Story of Linnenbecker and mana HR

Wencke Pietschmann, HR Director at Wilhelm Linnenbecker GmbH & Co. KG, describes how she built a professional applicant management system in record time. With mana HR as a strategic partner.

Before the recruiting software, the entire application process was analog. Applications were stamped, distributed through the internal mail run, and took two weeks to move around. Wencke was not willing to accept that and chose a modern, digital solution: mana HR.

Today the whole applicant management runs centrally and efficiently. Across locations, easy to use, and with no lengthy training.

"Vom Bollerwagen zum Space Shuttle. mana HR hat unser Recruiting komplett transformiert." - Wencke Pietschmann
(English meaning: "From a handcart to a space shuttle. mana HR completely transformed our recruiting.")
