Case Study: SC-Based Placement Service Provider achieves 40–50% faster time-to-hire and reduced applicant screening time with eSkill

A Placement Service Decreased Applicant Screening Time and Reduced Time-to-Hire by 40 to 50%

A Greenville, SC–based placement service that matches executive assistants with C-level executives needed a reliable way to ensure candidates had the right skills for on-site or remote EA roles. HR launched an EA training program but lacked a consistent process and assessments to identify skill gaps, wasting hours on resumes and relying on a 90-minute paper test while up to 40–50% of applicants were unqualified.

They implemented the eSkill Talent Assessment Platform™, using prebuilt and custom assessments and integrating it with Greenhouse the same day. Recruiters can now identify top candidates from short online tests (15 minutes or less), virtually eliminate resume screening, and cut time-to-hire and applicant screening time by about 40–50%, while improving the candidate experience.
