Case Study: AcademyX achieves faster, more insightful candidate screening with Spark Hire

How AcademyX Uses Spark Hire to Gain More Insight on Candidates in Less Time

AcademyX Computer Training, a hands‑on, instructor‑led computer training company, struggled to put a face to resumes when high volumes of applicants applied—hiring managers couldn’t easily determine which candidates were serious or a good cultural fit from PDFs alone.

By adopting Spark Hire’s one‑way video interviews (candidates answer a few short questions), AcademyX can quickly screen more people, pick up on nonverbal cues, and share interviews for team feedback. The change saved time, improved insight into candidates, and resulted in several stronger hires with higher‑quality responses than resume screening alone.
