Case Study: Snapdocs increases Quality of Hire and Employee Lifetime Value (1.5–4X) and cuts Time-to-Productivity by 25% with Searchlight

Snapdocs Improves Quality of Hire and Employee Lifetime Value While Decreasing Time to Productivity by 25%

Snapdocs, the San Francisco–based eClosing platform with 500+ employees, needed a faster, data-driven way to identify the attributes, skills, and experience of its highest performers so it could hire and retain top talent more predictably. Chief People Officer Chad Herring partnered with Searchlight, using Searchlight’s Predictive Talent Platform to replace a slow, manual analytics process and build predictive talent models and scorecards for key roles.

Searchlight analyzed employee data across behavioral dimensions, created role-specific Predictive Talent Models and integrated those scorecards and Reference Assessments into Snapdocs’ hiring workflow, delivering results in under four weeks. With Searchlight, Snapdocs improved Quality of Hire and Employee Lifetime Value by 1.5–4×, reduced time to productivity (ramp time) by 25% (from four months to three), and gathered and analyzed talent data 80% faster, then expanded the approach to additional teams.
