Rentokil, a global leader in pest control with over 90 years of expertise, needed to unify multiple HR systems and streamline its hiring process to quickly attract qualified candidates. Facing the challenge of creating a frictionless candidate experience across multiple brands, the company turned to Indeed for integrated solutions that would enhance efficiency and drive better hiring outcomes.
Background: A pest control company experiencing rapid growth
Rentokil provides comprehensive pest control services to over 50,000 customers every day, employing more than 21,000 people across North America. With a focus on safety, sustainability and customer satisfaction, the company expanded through acquisitions, merging multiple brands and HR systems under one umbrella.
This growth created an urgent need for a cohesive recruitment strategy that could handle high application volumes without compromising quality or brand consistency.
Challenge: Managing fragmented hiring processes efficiently
Managing separate systems and processes led to a fragmented candidate journey, making it difficult for Rentokil to efficiently screen and hire top talent. The complexity slowed down recruitment efforts, increased administrative overhead and risked losing strong candidates to competing opportunities.
"The ability to maintain a frictionless applicant experience has been invaluable."

Solution: Streamlining hiring with Indeed’s ATS integration
Rentokil integrated its Workday ATS with Indeed’s ATS Sync, creating a centralized platform for job postings and candidate data. This eliminated redundant steps, reduced time-to-apply and ensured consistent branding across multiple regions.
According to Reeder, “Workday ATS integration with Indeed removes friction for both recruiters and candidates.” By enabling applicants to complete the process in as little as two minutes, Rentokil minimized drop-offs and allowed recruiters to focus on engaging high-quality candidates rather than sifting through incomplete applications.
Results: 14.3% rise in hires from Indeed
Following Indeed’s implementation, Rentokil experienced a 233% increase in application volume and a 14.3% rise in hires from Indeed. These measurable gains not only accelerated the company’s hiring timelines but also delivered a smoother experience for applicants.
By centralizing its recruitment operations and leveraging Indeed’s integrated tools, Rentokil successfully merged its HR systems, streamlined its hiring process and positioned itself for continued growth in a highly competitive talent market.
