As the world’s largest privately held wine company, E&J Gallo has a surprisingly nimble campus recruiting team. Just 6 recruiters work across the U.S. to source, engage and advance top students to hire.
So how does such a small group make such a large impact? Focusing on relationships. At each school, E&J Gallo hosts several events which give recruiters the chance to formally — and informally — evaluate candidates to understand who might be a good fit. The process is relationship-based at every step, and allows the team to quickly narrow down their pool to the ambitious, serious candidates that can get the job down. They use Yello to manage recruiting events, engage students via text and email, and schedule interviews — ultimately helping them win over the talent they need to move the organization forward.
