Case Study: Drees Homes streamlines hiring and improves candidate experience with EmployTest

Drees Homes cuts hiring time to 45–60 days with EmployTest

Drees Homes, a custom home builder with a strong focus on customer care, faced a lengthy hiring process with high annual turnover. Their challenge was to streamline pre-employment assessments, which included multiple paper-based tests, in order to decrease their 45-60 day time-to-hire and consistently find high-quality candidates. They turned to vendor EmployTest for a solution involving skills testing.

EmployTest implemented a single-source online assessment platform to consolidate Drees's testing. This replaced the manual, in-person exams with automated, remote tests for skills like Microsoft Office and customer service. The solution saved administrative time for HR, provided immediate scoring, and improved the candidate experience. For Drees Homes, this resulted in a more efficient process that reduced time-to-hire and helped them secure great talent faster.
