Risketeers

Overview and professionalism

Previously, the organization worked largely with Excel, but the rapid growth of the organization made working in Excel confusing. Administration took too much time and the candidate journey could be more professional. Thanks to Mysolution, Risketeers now has a solid foundation for further growth.

The start: from Excel to ambition

When Risketeers was founded, it largely ran on Excel. That worked fine in the beginning, but as soon as the number of candidates and clients increased, the team ran into limits. There was little overview and a lot of manual work. Documents went back and forth, data had to be entered twice and the application process did not always run smoothly.

Roy, Lead Recruitment Marketing at Risketeers, remembers that moment well: "When I came in, almost everything was still done in Excel. We had to do a lot of duplication, and there was little insight. Together with Sjoerd, we therefore immediately started looking for an ATS that could support our growth."

Managing Partner Sjoerd adds: "We needed a system that not only helped us get things in order, but that also grew along with our ambitions. It had to strengthen our way of working: more objective, transparent and honest to candidates."

Looking at talent differently

That vision is a common thread at Risketeers. Not the resume is leading, but motivation, personality and skills. To make that concrete, they add an assessment to the selection procedure as standard. Applicants play four short games that measure cognitive skills and natural behavior. They always get the resulting report back. Even if they don't join Risketeers.

"That way we always add value for the candidate," Sjoerd says. "We want to show them where their strengths lie and how they can develop further. That makes our work more honest and more fun." So a system that supports that way of working was crucial.

"The great thing about Mysolution is that you have everything in one system. From the first contact with a candidate to the client proposal and sales reporting."

The choice of Mysolution

After a thorough search, Roy and Sjoerd ended up at Mysolution. What immediately stood out: everything is integrated in one platform. Recruiting candidates, managing data, drawing up contracts, registering hours and invoicing.

"Mysolution suits how we look at talent," explains Sjoerd. "The system supports us in selecting on skills and motivation and helps us match candidates and clients better. Not just on hard criteria, but precisely also on culture and environment."

For Roy, the integration was especially decisive: "The great thing about Mysolution is that you have everything in one system. From the first contact with a candidate to the client proposal and sales reporting. That gives overview, saves an enormous amount of time and ensures that work can easily be taken over."

A personal partnership

What Risketeers might remember most is the cooperation with Mysolution. "It never feels like purely commercial," says Roy. "You just notice that time is always taken for you. Questions are answered seriously, and you feel that they really think along with you."

The implementation also went smoothly. Not a standard process, but one that was well listened to and thought along with. "You notice that they understand how our industry works. We always got practical solutions, and if there is something wrong, someone is there right away," Sjoerd said.

Favorite features of Risketeers

Switching to Mysolution not only provided an overview, but also new possibilities. For Sjoerd, the candidate portal in particular stands out: "It immediately gives candidates a sense of belonging. Even before they are hired, they already have a place in our look and feel. Everything works easily: uploading documents, entering data, it looks sleek and professional. I think that's grandiose."

Roy is also a big fan of Maia, Mysolution's AI tool: "Maia reads all a candidate's data and converts that into a complete profile sketch with one question. You can send that to your client right away. That saves an enormous amount of time and makes our work faster and more professional."

The results in a row

A lot has changed at Risketeers since the switch to Mysolution:

- More overview:
All candidate and client data is centralized in one system.
- Better collaboration:
Because recruitment, sales and marketing are connected, information flows faster and more efficiently.
- Time savings:
Double work is a thing of the past; follow-up and reporting are faster.
-More professional to the market:
Using AI tools such as Maia, complete profiles are created within minutes that can be sent directly to clients.

It's just the beginning

During the conversation and recordings, it became clear that Mysolution is not just a system for Risketeers, but a partner that grows with them. Or as Roy puts it nicely: "Everything where humans don't create added value, you have to digitize. Thanks to Mysolution, we keep time to invest in talent, and that's exactly where we make a difference."

Risketeers has only been on the road for three years, but its ambitions are big. The organization wants to train and supervise more and more talent in the financial sector, and to do that they need a solid foundation. With Mysolution, they have that foundation in hand.

"We have only just started," says Sjoerd. "But we can already see that Mysolution helps us work better structurally. The system grows with us and gives us the overview we need to realize our vision."

Roy concludes, "For us, this is just the beginning. With Mysolution, we have the peace of mind and the overview to continue doing what we do best: preparing young professionals for a successful career."

"Anything where humans don't create added value, you have to digitize. Thanks to Mysolution, we keep time to invest in talent, and that is exactly where we make the difference."
