With over 1,500 employees across Belgium, France and Luxembourg, the Louyet automotive group faces high and varied recruitment volumes. Between technical profiles at dealerships, support functions at headquarters and regular needs across multiple sites, structuring recruitment is a key challenge.

In this context, Louyet chose to implement Beehire, a recruitment management solution designed to support high-volume HR teams.

To illustrate this collaboration, Laeticia Leeman, HR Business Partner at Louyet, agreed to share her experience using Beehire on a daily basis. A look back at a transformation that has profoundly changed the day-to-day reality of recruiters.

An existing tool… That had become a daily obstacle

Before Beehire, Louyet was already using an ATS. But in practice, it significantly slowed down recruiters’ work. In an environment where responsiveness is essential, these delays quickly became an operational bottleneck.

Beyond technical performance, the tool also lacked modernity and ergonomics both for recruiters and for candidates.

The turning point: A more modern, more intuitive solution

The decision to choose Beehire was based on both rational criteria and an immediate gut feeling. “When I saw the demo of the career page, I thought: wow, that’s stunning,” Laeticia told us.

The tool’s more modern and attractive positioning quickly made a difference, particularly when it came to employer branding.

“It’s super dynamic, super modern;  it just makes you want to use it.”

Support was also a key factor in the decision. The Beehire team made technical topics accessible by providing clear and concrete explanations. The responsiveness of the support team also made a strong impression, with fast and relevant answers that made onboarding and day-to-day use much smoother.

A smooth implementation and immediate adoption

The transition to Beehire went very smoothly, with strong coordination between teams. An onboarding session was carried out to support the teams, but the simplicity of the tool quickly took over.

“It’s super user friendly.”

The ability to customise processes (statuses, templates, organisation)  also allowed each recruiter to make the tool their own according to their needs.

A transformed daily routine: efficiency and enjoyment restored

The most significant change for the HR teams is in their day-to-day experience.

“Today, my first reflex in the morning is to open Beehire and check the candidates.”

Where recruitment could previously feel like a heavy task, it has now become more fluid and enjoyable. This improvement translates into both operational efficiency and genuine comfort at work.

Features built with recruiters in mind

Certain features have a particularly concrete impact on the teams’ daily work.

Response templates, for example, save valuable time while maintaining controlled communication. As Laeticia puts it: “You click, you send… and it’s done. And even better: you can schedule the send. I love it.”

Status management and pipeline visualisation also provide much greater clarity.

“I work a lot with colours. I can immediately see where I stand, it’s super clear.”

The flexibility of the tool (the ability to move candidates, create custom statuses or pause a job posting) reinforces this sense of control and fluidity.

An improved candidate experience

The Welcome Officer also notices an impact on the candidate side, thanks to a more intuitive experience.

“We get a lot more candidates applying. It’s clearer, more accessible… and probably more visually attractive.”

A more modern and readable career page helps make job offers more accessible and increases application volumes.

More efficient recruitment, without changing the recruiter’s role

While the fundamentals of the profession remain the same, the tool allows people to work more effectively.

“The recruiter is still the recruiter. But we work in a much more efficient way.”

In other words, technology doesn’t replace human expertise, it supports it.

A solution that has been adopted… and recommended

Today, the buy-in is clear. Laeticia describes herself as a “Beehire ambassador” and says she is “super fan of the product.”

When asked to describe the solution in a few words, she calls it “dynamic, easy to use, user friendly and innovative.”

Recruitment made simpler

For a company like Louyet, managing a high volume of recruitment across multiple sites, having the right tool doesn’t transform the profession; but it profoundly changes the way it is experienced.

Recruitment becomes more fluid, faster, and above all more enjoyable on a daily basis.

And that makes all the difference.
