BASF Chemical Project
For a high-tech, highly specialized plant designed to the highest international standards, KUTA used a niche vertical network to fast-track specialist hiring, with a single dedicated account manager and bi-monthly progress meetings.
Background
As a high-tech, highly specialized production plant, the design had to meet the highest international standards and required the best talent available in the market. The client needed people with relevant technical experience who could mobilize quickly, travel to any city in China, and bring strong international project experience and cross-cultural communication skills.
Client challenges
- Built to the highest international standards — candidates must be true specialists in their niche, not generic chemical engineers
- Fast mobilization: candidates must be ready to travel and relocate to project cities across China at short notice
- Strong international project experience and English communication required
- The client demands high responsiveness and a transparent, fixed-cadence hiring process
