Client

Our partner pracuj.pl is a corporation that is the most popular brand in Poland offering recruitment services to companies – a well-known platform with employment offers. In addition, since the year 2018, the client organizes the biggest in Poland career fairs called Jobicon. Each year (excluding pandemic gap years), the entire edition, which consists of several events in the largest cities in Poland, is attended by tens of thousands of people.

Our cooperation with the client lasts since 2019, and this year after the pandemic break the event comes back to live presence.

We have delivered the project for pracuj.pl in cooperation with the event agency Bespoke.

Challenges

1. Creating universal tools that will respond to the key needs and abilities of clients from various industries, in various positions.

2. Providing software support ensuring the automatization of communication and organization processes that led to time savings.

3. Building as a part of the software, a database that would be used as a virtual repository for creating the marketing content for events.

4. The database should enable the independent creation of printing materials and allow exhibitors to manage their profiles. This software tool was intended to reduce the number of e-mails between the event organizer and exhibitors.

5. Short execution time for providing a simple and efficient ticket distribution system that ensures high data security.

Benefits

Stand reservation facilitated the stand’s purchase process and shortened its time. The sales representatives on the customer’s side did not have to take part in long e-mail exchanges to complete the sale.

Exhibitor digital panels limited the engagement from the client in exhibitors’ preparation for the event. The panel allowed exhibitors for independent work, introducing changes, all without the client’s active participation. The panel also was in charge of guarding the deadlines, so the client didn’t have to worry about exhibitors’ preparation progress.

A Virtual info kiosk allowed participants to quickly find the job offer they were interested in, and thanks to the map move freely around the place of the event. Exhibitors could add new job offers in real time so the recruitment process could be kept smooth.

Event’s website was a huge facilitation tool for the participants to get the best possible experience from the event. For the client, the biggest asset came from integrating the website with the employer’s panel, which allowed for time-saving data transfer.

Ticketing system turned out to be bulletproof. It was also supported by our tutorial on working with tickets and entering the event so that the admission staff could work smoothly and there was no downtime for people entering the event.
