Case Study: Sky Betting & Gaming achieves 86% video interview completion and fills Tech Academy early with Shine Interview

Sky Betting & Gaming - Customer Case Study

Sky Betting & Gaming, a tech company of over 13,000 people, needed to close the digital skills gap by recruiting diverse talent into its Tech Academy Graduate Programme—open to graduates from any discipline and leading to a sponsored Master's. To move beyond one-dimensional CVs and telephone screening, they partnered with Shine Interview and used its video interviewing platform to better assess candidate commitment, body language and fit early in the process.

Using the Shine Interview platform, Sky Betting & Gaming moved screening from phone calls to video interviews, achieving an 86% interview completion rate and filling assessment-day places ahead of schedule. The approach boosted candidate quality and diversity—80% of students hired to the Tech Academy were female—and led to an improved, user-friendly experience for both applicants and hiring managers, prompting Sky Betting & Gaming to continue the partnership with Shine Interview.
