Why PEN?
The shortage of skilled workers in German-speaking countries is a real phenomenon. There are currently more than 780,000 vacancies to be filled in Germany alone (source: Statista, as of Dec. 2022).
Many of these positions have been vacant for months - and it seems as if people are cutting their teeth trying to fill them. It's also possible that each additional impending departure is already causing sweaty palms among business owners or in the HR department.
PEN Personalgewinnung GmbH ensures that your company only has a weary smile left for the "spectre" of a shortage of skilled workers. We bring companies together with employees who are a perfect professional and personal fit.
WIN-WIN-WIN - Our mission is clear
The deepest drive for our company is to create WIN-WIN-WIN situations that make everyone involved happier and more successful. Be it the entrepreneurs / managing directors, the people in the HR department, the new employees who find a company that really suits them and the existing teams who are relieved and get new great colleagues.
However, one thing is important to understand for these WIN-WIN-WIN situations: Yes, it is possible to hire 5 new employees after just two or three weeks using the PEN principle. We have experienced all of that.
But as a rule, this is not a finger-snapping process. And that is not our goal at all. Of course, we help acutely to fill all existing vacancies - but at the same time it is also about effective recruiting systems as well as attractive employer branding for the next 3 or 5 years.
We therefore work only with companies that ...

PEN exclusivity
We can only accept one partner per region (PEN exclusivity). In the meantime, the requests far exceed the freely available regions.
The growth of PEN partners in the respective regions:
Through our PEN account managers throughout Germany, we can get a picture on site and know our way around in all regions through empirical values from implemented customer projects (with up to 650 employees).
If your region is still available, we recommend that we explore whether a partnership is an option for both parties during a no-obligation 90-minute recruiting workshop:
We are not headhunters who want to fill new positions as quickly and lucratively as possible - but often leave scorched earth behind ...
For this reason, we are primarily interested in long-term partnerships.

Our promise
More attractiveness
but authentic
More visibility
but simple
more growth
but joyful
Successful employer branding does not mean bending. The principle of PEN is, of course, to turn certain screws. However, the most important thing is always to work out the authentic core of a company - this is the only way to attract suitable professionals who really fit - in other words, with whom you will be happy and who will be happy with you.
We present the employer brand on various channels. Our processes, templates and automations make this step easier than you might imagine.
And at the end of the day, the goal is of course growth - but always in line with the values of our own company. We think and act with people in mind - because where joy is lost, the greatest growth makes no sense.
You want to test without obligation whether we are the right ones to keep our promise?
