IKEA Hong Kong | Retail | 1000 | $250M | Hong Kong | JobsDB | JobsDB | Applicant Tracking System | 2018 | n/a | In 2018, IKEA Hong Kong implemented JobsDB as an external Applicant Tracking System to manage employer branding and vacancy advertising across its Hong Kong operations. IKEA Hong Kong uses JobsDB to publish retail, foodservice and corporate vacancies, maintaining an active employer presence that aligns JobsDB with HR and talent acquisition functions. The implementation centers on JobsDB job posting and candidate intake workflows, with inferred use of core ATS capabilities such as centralized job requisition pages, application capture, candidate shortlisting queues, and employer profile management. JobsDB is used as both an advertising channel and an operational intake system, supporting standard recruiting workflows including job template configuration, candidate screening stages, and communications to applicants. Operational coverage spans IKEA Hong Kong talent acquisition teams supporting stores, foodservice outlets, and corporate roles within Hong Kong, with recruiting activities funneled through the JobsDB employer profile. The profile activity and frequent job postings indicate coordinated use by HR hiring managers and recruiting coordinators, with job advertising and candidate management functioning as primary business functions. Governance is oriented around standardized advertising and intake controls, aligning job posting templates and screening workflows to company hiring policies, and centralizing employer branding on the JobsDB platform. IKEA Hong Kong has been recognised in JobsDB Hong Kong HR awards, which reflects platform-level visibility and engagement rather than quantified operational outcomes. | |

Cathay Pacific Hong Kong | Transportation | 27300 | $13.4B | Hong Kong | JobsDB | JobsDB | Applicant Tracking System | 2015 | n/a | In 2015, Cathay Pacific Hong Kong implemented JobsDB as an Applicant Tracking System to centralize vacancy advertising and candidate sourcing within its Hong Kong operations. The deployment is oriented to support recruitment across cabin crew, ground operations and corporate functions, and employer pages on JobsDB display frequent live roles consistent with ongoing high-volume hiring. JobsDB is used as a primary recruitment channel and applicant intake point, aligning with core applicant tracking capabilities such as vacancy posting, resume capture, candidate pipeline management and employer-branded job pages. The implementation narrative implies workflows for job posting approvals, candidate screening and status progression are managed through JobsDB employer features rather than bespoke recruitment tooling. The provided context does not list specific integrations with HRIS or payroll systems, so details about downstream system connectivity are not documented. Operational coverage is focused on Cathay Pacific Hong Kong recruiting activities in Hong Kong, and the sustained presence of active postings indicates continuous use for frontline and corporate hiring rather than a time-limited campaign. | |
