The Challenge
The Head of Operations role was particularly challenging to fill because the e-learning sector is still uncommon in the local market. Candidates for this position often have very high expectations, viewing it as a potential stepping stone to future General Manager roles. This made identifying the right talent both competitive and sensitive, as candidates needed to be genuinely interested in the sector while bringing relevant operational experience.
Our Approach
To meet this challenge, MyWorld conducted detailed market research to map potential candidates, including those from industries beyond e-learning who could bring transferable skills. Regular communication with the client’s HR team ensured alignment on expectations, while our insights helped broaden the candidate pool.
Our approach included:
- Market mapping to identify candidates with relevant operational experience
- Outreach to professionals outside traditional e-learning channels
- Continuous communication with the client to refine expectations and share insights
