Case Study: Illinois Tool Works streamlines university recruiting and enhances candidate experience with Spark Hire

How Illinois Tool Works Improves University Recruiting With Spark Hire Video Interviews

Illinois Tool Works (ITW) is a global industrial manufacturer that wanted to modernize and streamline its university recruiting to better connect with younger talent and improve time-to-hire. Prior to adopting video interviewing, ITW had limited recruiting technology and needed a way to make the candidate experience more personal and efficient.

ITW implemented Spark Hire’s video interviewing platform, getting up and running in about a month with hands-on account support and training. The solution enabled personalized touches (welcome videos, timely interactions), simplified workflows, strong customer service, and a positive candidate experience—delivering improved efficiency, solid ROI, and a platform ITW now recommends to other recruiters.
