IMPACT
247 hires made during a major operational transition
Background
A correctional facility in the Philadelphia suburbs underwent a significant transition from private to public control — a complex change that required rebuilding and stabilizing its workforce while maintaining daily operations and safety standards.
The Challenge
Transitioning ownership and governance created an urgent need for comprehensive talent acquisition support. The facility required:
End‑to‑end hiring support for approximately 450 employees
Rapid recruitment of Correctional Officers and essential staff
Structured processes to manage high‑volume candidate flow
A partner capable of operating in a highly regulated, time‑sensitive environment
The scale and complexity of the transition demanded immediate, coordinated recruiting execution.
Juno’s Approach
Juno was engaged for an initial five‑month contract to consult on the facility’s talent acquisition strategy, interview incumbent staff, and hire critical roles — with a strong focus on Correctional Officers.
To meet the scope of the project, Juno deployed a five‑person team consisting of:
1 Project Manager
2 Talent Consultants
2 Sourcing Specialists
Due to strong performance and ongoing hiring needs, the engagement was extended an additional nine months.
The Outcome
Throughout the engagement, Juno delivered measurable results at scale:
3,000+ candidates engaged
1,900+ candidates screened
781+ candidates interviewed
247 offers extended
247 hires made
The coordinated team approach ensured hiring momentum was sustained throughout the transition period.
Lasting Impact
By providing structured, end‑to‑end recruiting support during a critical transition, Juno helped stabilize the workforce, reduce hiring risk, and enable a smoother shift to public operation without disrupting facility operations.
