Case Study: a leading global technology company streamlines campus hiring in China with SHL's WriteX

Campus hiring program in China evaluates written English with AI-powered automated assessment

A leading global technology company, ThoughtWorks, faced significant challenges in its campus recruitment program in China. Their need to hire graduates with strong written English skills was hampered by the lack of a reliable and scalable evaluation method, making manual assessment of thousands of candidates a logistical burden. They partnered with the vendor SHL and implemented its AI-powered product, WriteX, to automate and standardize this critical hiring step.

Using SHL's WriteX solution, the client efficiently evaluated over 20,000 candidates. The AI-driven tool provided automated, proctored scoring of grammar and content quality, which streamlined the entire process and eliminated human bias. This allowed the company to successfully identify and hire competent talent with proficient English writing skills, significantly improving the overall quality of their campus hires.
