CDW Uses Gig Content Creators and Social Media Talent Around Employer Brand
The Problem

Hanady Khourshid needed assistance in creating 20 content pieces around community involvement, Life at CDW, CDW Swag, and careers at CDW. The team struggled with being able to find on-demand talent that could understand CDW’s brand, style, and messaging.

The Solution

Using the CDW Program on Upwork, Khourshid was able to quickly connect with two independent professionals. They were able to understand CDW’s messaging and culture, and completed the 20 articles.

The Impact

30 pieces of content created

TA Ops Beats Deadlines With Independent Talent
The Problem

Over the course of the year, the team had numerous tasks requiring high-volume and repetitive data entry work for their recruiting systems. The tasks were time-consuming, required basic systems knowledge, and hindered the team from handling high-value tasks.

The Solution

The team secured one resource for the first task, and was then able to re-engage the same independent professional for each engagement, limiting ramp-up time. Each engagement contained a fixed scope and timeline, both of which were easily met by the professional.

The Impact

Task prioritization: by allowing CDW team to focus on high-value tasks

Increased speed: on task completion
