The Dutch National Opera & Ballet
"Before, our casting process for thousands of yearly applications at the National Opera and Ballet was a labor-intensive system of emails and Excel sheets.
I was amazed that we were able to implement a new system in just one week. It has completely optimized our process, standardized all applicant data, and provides a much more professional experience for our candidates, who can now manage their own accounts . ”
Leon - Head of IT - National Opera & Ballet
