Case Study - Squarespace - Siloed HR Systems
THE CHALLENGE

Siloed HR systems

Squarespace is the leading online tool for building and publishing websites, supporting over 2 million websites. In 2015, Squarespace was entering a rapid growth phase and needed to focus on attracting and retaining top talent.

However, HR data spread across separate systems, the HR team struggled to create holistic reports that could provide valuable insights and drive their decision-making. Recruiting data was stored in Greenhouse, employee data in UltiPro, and facilities data in a facilities system, making cross-system reporting tedious and manual.

To support their growth, Squarespace needed a more efficientway to connect their HR systems and improve analysis, so they could focus on scaling and expanding the business.

THE SOLUTION

Connected HR datasets

In 2017, Squarespace used One Model’s people analytics platform to connect their Greenhouse, UltiPro, and facilities data and automatically report across all HR systems. By centralizing key data like Candidate ID, Application ID, and Requisition ID in One Model, Squarespace can answer critical business questions like:

  • Where did Squarespace source the highest performing employees?
  • Do employees sourced by certain recruiters stay with Squarespace longer?
  • Does the recruiting experience influence the employee’s first year with the company?

One Model’s robust catalog of recruiting and retention metrics, along with advanced, role-based security, empowered Squarespace to create customized reports and datasets. This allowed them to easily share insights with key stakeholders, including executives, managers, payroll, HRBPs, benefits, finance, and facilities teams.
