The Company

FLō Energy Solutions is a leading provider of HVAC engineering solutions, specializing in the food retail space. The company designs and installs energy-efficient heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems tailored for the needs of grocery stores and other retail food operations.

With a virtual workforce and a broad geographical reach across both Canada and the USA, FLō Energy Solutions is dedicated to providing high-quality technical services and energy-saving solutions to clients across North America.

The Problem

Michael Dilauro, Director of People & Culture, was facing several challenges with recruitment:

• Managing multiple job platforms

Posting jobs across multiple sites was time-consuming, and the process was inefficient.

• Low-quality candidates

Even when posting on high-traffic job boards like Zip Recruiter and Indeed, the quality of applicants did not meet the industry-specific needs of the HVAC sector.

• Difficulty filling specialized roles

One prime example was the Account Manager role in Sales — a critical position requiring niche industry knowledge that proved hard to fill.

• Lack of efficiency

FLō needed a solution to streamline recruitment, make it more cost-effective, and improve candidate quality, especially for highly specialized roles.

The Solution

After hearing about ecruit, FLō decided to give our 360 Package a try, using both job advertising and headhunting to reach both active and passive candidates.

✓ Expanded reach across multiple job boards

ecruit posted job ads across several major job boards, reaching a much broader pool of candidates compared to traditional single-platform advertising.

✓ Headhunting for passive candidates

Using the LinkedIn headhunting campaign, ecruit was able to source highly qualified passive candidates who were not actively seeking new roles but were a perfect fit for FLō’s niche industry needs.

✓ A simple, cost-effective process

The fixed-price structure of ecruit’s services helped FLō save significant money compared to traditional recruitment methods, with no commissions or hidden fees.

✓ Hands-on support from ecruit’s team

The ecruit team worked closely with FLō to understand their needs and refine the hiring process, ensuring that only the best candidates were considered.
