Case Study: Adventist HealthCare achieves faster nurse hiring with SkillSurvey Reference

Using reference checking as an ally in the race to find great nurses

Adventist HealthCare needed to quickly hire 50 nurse residents and externs in just 60 days while identifying candidates who were empathetic, compassionate, and strong team players. The challenge was made harder by limited HR system usability and a large applicant pool, and SkillSurvey Reference was used to support the hiring process.

SkillSurvey implemented its automated, mobile-friendly reference checking solution to gather job-specific feedback and provide deeper insight into candidates’ past behavior. As a result, Adventist HealthCare filled all 50 positions within 60 days, received feedback from 78% of references within two days, and averaged 4.4 references per candidate, helping the team focus interviews on the strongest applicants.
