Case Study: JCB achieves 100% offer acceptance in early careers hiring with Sova Assessment

JCB achieves 100% offer acceptance with Sova Assessment

JCB, a global manufacturer of construction and agricultural equipment, faced significant challenges in managing over 8,000 annual applications for its 40+ early careers programs. Their manual, labor-intensive recruitment process was inefficient, inconsistent, and risked unconscious bias, creating a poor candidate experience and administrative burden. To address this, JCB partnered with Sova Assessment to implement a new solution.

Sova implemented its Early Careers Pre-Built Assessment, which included online testing and structured video interviews. This solution automated scoring and shortlisting, ensuring fairness and consistency. The results were highly successful, including a 70% completion rate on assessments, a 98% attendance rate at final assessment centers, and a 100% offer acceptance rate from candidates who completed the process, dramatically improving both efficiency and candidate experience for JCB.
