SDLC Partners wanted a solution that would help to solve the difficulty in testifying potential in junior level candidates, a time consuming vetting process, multiple interview cycles to arrive at job-fit candidates, and biases in hiring decisions.
Running candidates through relevant assessments is one thing, while pitching their potential to clients is another. SDLC Partners was struggling in both these areas while shortlisting job-ready Junior Java Developers. Creating apt assessments that not only capture the right fit, but also eliminate biases in selection procedures that follow, seemed rather bothersome.
Difficulty in testifying potential in junior level candidates
After scooping out potential candidates based on former assessments, SDLC Partners felt short of reliable data and insights to support why they had selected certain candidates. Data which could mirror true potential of shortlisted candidates was a much-needed testament.
A time consuming vetting process
In addition to the process of creating suitable assessments, time was involuntarily being expended in filtering candidates through each selection round.
Multiple interview cycles to arrive at job-fit candidates
In order to be able to lock their confidence on a candidate, SDLC Partners was having to run assessed candidates through multiple interview rounds.
In their search for skilled Junior Java Developers, SDLC Partners maneuvered their decisions based on the following solutions provided by iMocha:
Developer Skill Assessment
iMocha’s developer test meant a big sigh of relief for SDLC Partners since their recruitment team did not already possess such assets.
Customizable time limit settings
Executing tests with desired time limits was made possible with iMocha’s offering of customizing tests to the most minute details. Assessments could be rolled out with intended level of difficulty not just in level of questions but also the time allotted to those questions. This helped SDLC Partners capture the exact grade of competency that they were looking for as customization was executed easily given iMocha’s user-friendliness.
Pre-set tests for variegated skillsets
iMocha's pre-set tests enveloping a variety of skills stood out for SDLC Partners. These tests enabled them to screen candidates across multiple skills without having to assign a different test for every skill. Consequently, the process of sending out tests became very convenient. The Full Stack Developer test proved to be a particular favorite because of its ability to reflect the overall potential of a candidate as a developer.
Unbiased metrics in test reports
No matter where a candidate came from, SDLC Partners could rely on his/her job readiness based on unbiased metrics presented in the iMocha generated test reports. These metrics provided important insights to the interview panel and eventually saved the time which their developer team expended on interviewing.
100% of the interviewed candidates were extended an offer letter. SDLC Partners saved time equivalent to that of 20 interviews. Instilling confidence across all stakeholders involved in the hiring process was a major advantage that iMocha was able to create for SDLC Partners. Moreover, developers who attempted the assessment also indicated positive feedback. SDLC Partners made well-informed and balanced hiring decisions.
