Case Study: Wastewater Management Company reduces recruitment time by up to two weeks with eSkill Author

How Custom Job Assessments Help Increase Hiring Success

An anonymous wastewater management company operating a 33‑acre treatment facility that serves over 350,000 residents and maintains roughly 800 miles of pipeline faced staffing shortfalls during COVID‑19. Their manual, paper‑based testing and grading process was slow, revealed many candidates lacked claimed skills, and stretched recruitment timelines as they struggled to verify qualifications for critical roles.

They implemented eSkill Author and prebuilt assessments from the eSkill Talent Assessment Platform™, working with a Client Success Manager to build role‑specific tests and automated scoring. The digital assessments sped candidate screening, produced ready‑made reports for hiring teams, and cut testing and scoring time—reducing recruitment time by one to two weeks per candidate while improving identification of qualified hires.
