Summary

Schneider Electric faced a structural challenge common among large multinational employers: skilled employees leaving the company simply because they couldn't see or access internal career opportunities. The 150,000-employee energy management and automation group rebuilt its internal talent mobility system around artificial intelligence rather than static job boards.

The solution centers on a partnership with talent marketplace platform Gloat, which lets internal managers post open positions and projects while employees build profiles that surface personalized, real-time opportunities matched to their skills, experience, and career ambitions. AI-driven matching replaced a traditional, largely invisible internal job posting process, with HR intermediation keeping the process smooth for both hiring managers and employees.

Particular attention goes to how the program scaled from a small pilot within the HR function to a company-wide marketplace spanning the organization's global workforce, and what that expansion required in terms of change management, manager buy-in, and employee awareness campaigns.

Measurable shifts in employee engagement, project participation, and adoption speed followed the marketplace launch, positioning internal talent mobility as a retention lever with direct implications for workforce planning amid a labor market where millennials represent a growing share of the workforce.

Can an AI-matched internal talent marketplace fix the attrition problem that traditional job boards never solved?
