About Sascha

From random recruiting to an automated recruiting engine.

Companies are losing valuable market share today because key positions in sales, marketing, and tech remain unfilled.

My approach:
I apply the data-driven success logic of performance marketing and high-end sales to your recruiting.

As an economist and certified Teamtailor partner, I will build an infrastructure for you within 3-6 months that not only finds talent but converts it, and that delivers sustainable results even after my mandate.

What I do for you as an Interim TA Partner:

• Recruiting Automation: Implementation of automated workflows to drastically reduce time-to-hire.

• Social Recruiting Funnels: Development of landing pages and campaign strategies for acquiring passive candidates (conversion optimization).

• ATS Architecture (Focus: Teamtailor): Strategic setup and optimization of your applicant management system for maximum data integrity and usability.

• Sales DNA in Recruiting: Hunter mentality in active sourcing for demanding profiles in sales, marketing, and management levels.

• Candidate Experience 2.0: Design of a digital journey that establishes your employer brand as a benchmark in the market.

I ensure measurable applicant quality, a predictable pipeline, and the technical excellence of your HR processes.

Availability:
I am available for exclusive interim mandates (30 hours/week) – ideal for SMEs and scale-ups looking to professionalize and scale their recruiting.

    Strategic Recruiting Consulting for SMEs


    Predictable Hires Instead of Randomness

    I help small and medium-sized enterprises strategically reposition their recruiting: with clear processes, well-founded decisions, and a system that reliably attracts suitable talent.

    **My focus is not on short-term CV placement, but on sustainable recruiting structures that function without external dependencies.


    Here's how I can help you

    🔹 Analysis of existing recruiting structures and bottlenecks
    🔹 Development of a clear recruiting strategy (target groups, channels, budget)
    🔹 Building a predictable recruiting funnel
    🔹 Translating marketing logic into effective recruiting
    🔹 Sparring for managing directors, HR, and executives

    Goal:Fewer bad hires. Clearer decisions. Reliable hires.

    Typical situations in which I am booked

    • Recruiting only works sporadically or by chance
    • Applications are received, but quality and fit are lacking
    • Channels, budgets, and measures are unclear or inefficient
    • Recruiting is operationally overloaded and not strategically managed
    • Growth is planned but not properly prepared for in terms of personnel

    My specialties

    ✅ Recruiting strategy & positioning in the job market
    ✅ Selection and prioritization of suitable recruiting channels
    ✅ Structured interview and decision-making processes
    ✅ Conception of career pages with clear applicant logic
    ✅ Workshops & strategy sessions for internal teams

    Collaboration

    • Strategic consulting & sparring
    • Project-based (audit, strategy workshop, roadmap)
    • Optional accompanying implementation – but strategy first
