Case Study: Keittiömaailma achieves faster, more effective hiring — hires 3 salespeople with Recright video interviewing

Keittiömaailma Sales talent found with video interview

Keittiömaailma, a Finnish kitchen and bathroom retailer, needed to recruit a salesperson/kitchen planner for its Lappeenranta store but had little prior experience with webcam-based hiring. To better evaluate candidates’ sales presence, appearance and verbal skills, the company turned to Recright’s video interviewing tool to screen applicants more effectively than with written applications alone.

Recright supplied the video interviewing platform along with a webcam and an online coaching session, allowing shopkeeper Marjut Pulli and colleagues to review candidates’ asynchronous video replies on an iPad or laptop and invite the best for in-person interviews. The solution made scheduling easier, saved time for both Keittiömaailma and applicants, was well received by older candidates, and resulted in three hires instead of the single planned position—outcomes that convinced Keittiömaailma to continue using Recright.
