IT Skills Testing | Boosting Interview-to-Offer Ratios by 25%

When recruiting for critical IT roles, our client repeatedly found that candidates struggled to demonstrate the technical proficiency listed on their CVs.

This led to inefficient interviews, project delays and lost productivity across technical teams.

Solution

To address this, Vermelo integrated the TestGorilla skills testing platform into the client’s recruitment process.

Together, we:

  • Collaborated with hiring managers to design tailored assessments for selected IT roles, focused on coding, system architecture and problem-solving

  • Introduced a two-stage screening process, ensuring only high-calibre candidates advanced to interview

  • Provided hiring managers with data-driven reports, enabling more focused interviews and improved hiring decisions

Results & Benefits

The integration delivered measurable and qualitative improvements:

  • Interview-to-offer ratios improved by approximately 25%, reflecting stronger candidate quality

  • Reduced interview time and improved efficiency by filtering out unqualified applicants early

  • Enhanced long-term performance and retention by hiring candidates with validated skillsets

  • Strengthened employer brand through a fair and transparent assessment process

(Note: Skills testing applied to selected IT roles only; results based on available data.)
