Case Study: PGA TOUR achieves streamlined internship screening and major cost savings with Spark Hire

How PGA TOUR Uses Spark Hire To Interact With Summer Internship Candidates

PGA TOUR, the world’s foremost golf tour, needed a fun, efficient way to screen candidates for its summer internship program. With more than 200 applicants for a seasonal intake, the team wanted to move beyond phone interviews to better vet and engage candidates before committing to in-person meetings.

They adopted Spark Hire’s one-way video interviewing on a month-to-month plan, letting candidates record responses and recruiters tag and review submissions quickly. The platform cut hours and travel costs, added valuable face-to-face insight to the screening process, and helped them hire 22 summer interns—replacing their prior solution with a more flexible, user‑friendly option.
