BHP + Qualtrics
BHP + Qualtrics
With a need to hire highly specialised (and changing) skillsets in some of the tightest talent markets, BHP needed to get every element of its candidate experience right. Here’s how BHP meticulously designed its candidate experience and modelled the correlation with long-term employee engagement. Helping them unlock productivity and performance gains.
Unlocking performance through better candidate experiences
Navigating talent shortage and changing skillsets
BHP needs specialist talent in some of the remote locations where employer reputation could determine its ability to hire for generations. It’s also facing a pivotal transition as it looks to industrial automation in the near future. To ensure BHP protects and builds on its reputation as an employer (where a candidate also has high likelihood of being a shareholder), BHP listened and redesigned their entire candidate experience with the help of Qualtrics.
Revving the data engine
As part of BHP’s wider employee engagement program, the team redesigned the candidate experience to gain a complete picture of the employee journey – from hire to retire. Using Qualtrics EmployeeXM, the team ingested data from a whole host of HR resources already in use, identified bottlenecks and made changes to a variety of touchpoints.
Linking candidate experience and ongoing productivity
BHP modelled the drivers that link how a candidate’s hiring and onboarding experience affect employee engagement, and how employee engagement affects productivity. This enabled it to measure direct productivity gains that could result by tracking the entire employee journey, gaining real-time insights into the challenges, and then acting immediately to boost engagement.

Creating a successful candidate experience program requires collaboration and a diverse skill set. It took a collective effort involving experience owners, talent and business partners, process specialists, Qualtrics, and solution architects to establish and maintain the program. This collaboration was crucial in overcoming challenges and ensuring the program's effectiveness.
