Case Study: Fournier (SoCoo’c) improves hiring efficiency and uncovers motivated candidates with CleverConnect's video interviews

Fournier saves 730 hours in hiring with CleverConnect

SoCoo’c, a kitchen retailer and subsidiary of the Fournier Group, faced the challenge of efficiently identifying candidates with the right personality and motivation for their customer-facing roles, rather than relying solely on CVs. They partnered with CleverConnect to implement a pre-recorded video interview solution at the start of their recruitment process to uncover these soft skills and avoid costly hiring mistakes.

The solution from CleverConnect automated the initial screening by sending video interview links to all applicants. This allowed SoCoo’c to quickly identify highly motivated candidates, saving approximately 730 hours previously spent on phone pre-qualifications. The tool also helped them discover quality candidates they would have overlooked based on CV alone, with 12 out of 30 recent hires being a direct result of the video interviews.
