The Context
Navigating a Complex Recruitment Landscape
Capgemini, a global leader in consulting and technology services, knows that staying competitive starts with attracting the right talent. But before partnering with MakiPeople, the recruitment process relied on multiple tools, creating a fragmented and time-consuming experience for recruiters. There was a clear need for a more streamlined and effective hiring approach.
The Challenge
Breaking Free from Legacy Systems
Capgemini’s recruitment teams were spending too much time managing disjointed platforms and manual tasks. The pressure to identify top candidates quickly, across all levels and roles, was growing—but outdated systems were holding them back.
“Every year we recruit new candidates from student positions to executive positions, and we receive lots of applications every day, so we have to quickly identify the best talent.”
— Emmanuel Legros, Head of Talent Acquisition, Capgemini
The Solution
A Unified Recruitment Experience with MakiPeople
To meet these challenges, Capgemini partnered with MakiPeople to simplify and strengthen its recruitment process. The platform brought everything into one place—offering a smooth, end-to-end experience for both recruiters and candidates.
“Before using Maki, the platform we used was a bit clunky. We had to enter our internal HR website to send tests and wait around 48 hours for results. With Maki, the process has been streamlined, making it much more efficient and less time-consuming, with real-time results.”
— Sebastien Paez, Talent Recruiter, Capgemini
Our impact
Streamlined Operations and Trusted Results
The impact was immediate. Thanks to MakiPeople, Capgemini reduced its recruitment timeline to just 10 days. By relying on MakiPeople’s assessments, some Capgemini teams were able to remove technical interviews entirely—without losing confidence in hiring decisions, by accelerating hiring without compromising quality.
A Positive Candidate Experience at Every Step
The benefits go beyond internal efficiency. Candidates themselves appreciate the clarity, simplicity, and usefulness of the assessments.
“When I took the Maki assessment, I really liked the fluidity of the tool. The interface was very clear, and the detailed feedback was useful to see which parts I could improve for future missions at Capgemini.”
— William Hooker, Research Engineer hired with MakiPeople
Capgemini teams also value the ability to tailor assessments precisely to their needs—ensuring they gather the right insights for every role.
“What I like the most about the platform is its customizability. It is easy to create new tests, and we can have very precise questions to know exactly what we want to know about our candidates.”
— Sebastien Paez, Talent Recruiter, Capgemini
A Close Collaboration Driving Constant Progress
The partnership between Capgemini and MakiPeople goes beyond the platform. It’s built on ongoing collaboration and a shared goal of continuous improvement.
“We are working closely with MakiPeople experts. They always listen to our feedback and propose solutions to meet our needs.”

The results speak for themselves:
- 95% of candidates found the experience useful and insightful
- Capgemini’s employer brand improved for 94% of candidates
- 96% of candidates do complete their Maki assessment—highlighting strong engagement
