Case study: Accenture

Talking to talent: a job well done

0 min read, tagged in Consulting, Writing and in Brand & marketing.

Accenture has thousands of job ads out in the world at any given time. But they weren’t always attracting the top talent they were after. ​

Our client wanted to make a stronger case for each role, in a voice that felt authentic to the company – without losing the complex technical details.

We started with guidelines and a template to capture the feeling, tone and clarity they were after. Then we rewrote a batch of job ads in bulk – 500 of them, to be precise. ​

​

A logistical dream​

It takes painstaking project management to keep track of hundreds of documents (not to mention version control), and make sure everything is delivered on-spec and on time. ​

We had a full-time project manager on the Accenture case, meticulously manoeuvring all the moving parts. Add to that our rigorous ‘second braining’ process, which meant we could assign a whole team of writers and still keep the quality consistent.​

​

Right first time, hundreds of times​

Most of the hundreds of job ads were signed off on the first draft. And all of them were delivered on time and within budget.
