HR and payroll services
A fast, easy-to-use talent assessment platform suited to its hiring environment
Improving candidate experience means many more completed applications per position
Meet Hicham Al Bouhali, the head of the talent acquisition team at SD Worx. His team of 34 talent specialists is responsible for hiring between 1,300 and 1,500 people annually, making their hiring process a significant part of their operations.
Before using TestGorilla, SD Worx used a different tool for their hiring process. However, this tool needed to be updated and more user-friendly, resulting in a poor candidate experience. The tool also took almost three hours to complete the testing, which was unacceptable for the fast-paced world of talent acquisition.
SD Worx introduced TestGorilla a year ago to improve its hiring process. The tool was initially used for IT profiles, but the team quickly saw the potential for its use in other areas. TestGorilla was integrated into each country where SD Worx operates, even in countries where testing wasn't commonly used in the recruitment process. The team saw this as an opportunity to increase the quality of their candidates and, consequently, the quality of their hires.
Since implementing TestGorilla, SD Worx has seen significant improvements in its hiring process. More candidates are completing the testing due to its shorter duration, and the team can present more qualified candidates to hiring managers. This has resulted in a reduced time to hire and an improved perception of the business. The user-friendly interface and reliable performance of TestGorilla have also contributed to a better candidate experience.
Increased completion rates: More candidates are completing the testing process due to its shorter duration with TestGorilla, compared to the previous tool which took almost three hours.

More qualified candidates: With TestGorilla, SD Worx has been able to present more qualified candidates to hiring managers, improving the quality of their hires.

In conclusion, the implementation of TestGorilla has revolutionized the hiring process at SD Worx. The tool has not only streamlined their operations but also significantly improved the candidate experience. With a more efficient testing process, SD Worx has seen an increase in test completion rates, leading to a larger pool of qualified candidates.
This, in turn, has reduced the time to hire and improved the quality of their hires. The user-friendly interface and reliable performance of TestGorilla have further enhanced the hiring process, making it a valuable asset for SD Worx.
