The Hiring Solution That Saved Our Clients Hours

The hiring process felt like a puzzle with missing pieces.
The breakthrough came when the supplier team started sharing detailed candidate assessments, offering a clear view of skills, cultural fit, and potential.

After a long day filled with resumes, client feedback, and trying to make sense of complex hiring needs, the HR Manager leaned back in her chair, staring at the dimly lit screen in front of her. She’d just finished a call with the Head of Engineering from one of their clients.

The HR Manager knew that the hiring process was much more complicated than purchasing a product online, but what if there was a way to streamline it, making the process easier for clients while providing them with the information they truly needed?

The team had been sending over resumes and summaries of candidates, but it became clear that these didn’t offer enough actionable insight. Resumes, after all, are just a list of qualifications. They don’t speak to the candidate’s true potential, their problem-solving abilities, or how well they would fit within the company’s culture.

That’s when it hit her—what if they could provide the client with something more than a short summary of the candidates? What if they could offer a detailed assessment that painted a more complete picture of each candidate?

She quickly discussed the idea with the team, and they all agreed it was time for a change. They decided to create a comprehensive candidate assessment that would provide deeper insights into each individual’s abilities and strengths.

Along with this, the team would include two types of assessments: a Summary View, providing a quick snapshot of the candidate’s suitability, and a Detailed Report, offering in-depth insights that would give the client a clearer understanding of the candidate’s strengths and potential. The goal was to provide enough information for the client to make an informed decision without being overwhelmed by unnecessary details.

To keep the process manageable and efficient, the team decided to implement this for the first three candidates for each project. Once these assessments were shared, the client could proceed confidently with just one final interview, cutting down the number of interview rounds and saving precious time on both ends.

The results were almost immediate. What had once been a long and tedious process was now streamlined. With clear, detailed insights into each candidate, the client was able to make decisions faster, focusing on what mattered most.

And the best part? The feedback from the client was overwhelmingly positive. “This is exactly what we needed!” the Head of Engineering said. “The summary is so clear, and the detailed report gave me everything I needed to make a confident decision. I feel much more assured moving forward with this candidate.”

By offering these detailed candidate assessments, the team was able to not only save time for the client but also reduce the effort required on both sides. The overall effort was reduced by 1%, and the client was able to make better hiring decisions with far less back-and-forth.

What had once been a complicated, uncertain process was now more transparent and efficient. The team had bridged the gap between candidate evaluation and decision-making, creating a smoother, faster, and more effective hiring flow. The hiring process was no longer an intimidating task but rather a streamlined, insightful experience, much like browsing an online store where everything was laid out clearly.

The team’s new approach had transformed offshore hiring, making it easier for both the team and the client. They knew that with each new project, the process would be smoother and more predictable, with no unnecessary rounds of interviews or wasted time.
