Your challenges, our solutions
Unachievable recruiting targets, inadequate reporting, high cost-per-hire or a low level of automation are common
challenges that our clients face in recruiting. Our HR consulting addresses these issues and develops
data-based solutions for your talent acquisition.
Recruiting targets are not met
With our “Kooku Architecture: Talent Acquisition” service, we help you to achieve your recruiting goals.
Together, we analyze your recruiting architecture for optimization potential and implement this together with you. This includes target definitions, key figures, data collection, reporting and recruiting tools as well as the implementation of efficient processes, the creation of clear requirement profiles and a comprehensive interview strategy. With People Analytics and HR Analytics, we create transparency about your most important recruiting KPIs such as time-to-hire, cost-per-hire and quality of hire. We also carry out talent market analyses, show you the right recruiting channels for your company and look at your budgeting. We compare your internal, external and desired employer branding and take over the training of your employees in order to anchor best practices in your organization.
Insufficient recruiting reporting
With our “Kooku Data Turbo” service, we bring your recruiting reporting up to speed.
We work with you to define the requirements for your recruiting reporting within the set objectives in the recruiting consultation and then select the appropriate key performance indicators (KPIs). We also check the data quality and sources for reliable reporting and develop a wireframe. Finally, we set up a scalable recruiting dashboard prototype to leverage your recruiting potential.
Low degree of automation
With our “Kooku Automation” service, we optimize your level of automation for maximum efficiency in recruiting.
We analyse and optimize the use of existing automation potential of the existing recruiting tool landscape in your organization. Furthermore, during the recruiting consultation, we support you in the selection, introduction and training of new features and tools.
We also examine whether your applicant management system is being used optimally (including interview kits, scorecard, scheduling tools, email automation, data collection & hiring manager training) …and to what extent large language models (AI) can be used, for example, to create templates (including job ads, interview kits, and direct approach) more time-efficiently
– for an optimized
candidate experience and faster candidate journey.

Laura Sieger-Maguhn
Head of HR Executive Management
Cariad SE
“Martin Firlus has developed a recruiting dashboard for us that significantly reduces the manual reporting effort in executive recruiting. This was supplemented by a succession planning tool that shows the status of our internal recruitment pipelines at a glance. We opted for Excel (including Power Query and Power Pivot) on a SharePoint server as the platform. Both tools are easy to update, intuitive to use and provide both a quick overview and detailed insights. We were particularly impressed by the discovery workshop at the start of the project, Martin Firlus’ in-depth process knowledge and his consulting expertise and proactive approach.”

“Working with Kooku was the perfect mix of strategic foresight and operational implementation. We were particularly impressed by the balance between automation and a personal touch in the candidate experience. AI-supported tools such as the automated evaluation of coding challenges have significantly reduced our administrative workload – while at the same time ensuring quality through the human factor. Scorecards enabled standardized comparability of candidates and contributed to objective decision-making. Overall, the project was a real help for our growth – including the dashboards to keep an overview at all times.”
