A tech-driven client was plagued by candidates who couldn’t substantiate the IT skills claimed on their CVs, leading to wasted interviews and delayed project delivery. Vermelo integrated the TestGorilla skills-testing platform to introduce role-specific assessments and a two-stage screening process. With data-driven insights for hiring managers, only qualified candidates advanced to interviews—resulting in a 25% uplift in interview-to-offer ratios, reduced time spent interviewing, stronger long-term performance, and a more transparent, fair hiring experience.
