Case Study: University of Pennsylvania eliminates phone screens and speeds hiring with Spark Hire

How University of Pennsylvania Uses Spark Hire To Get Rid Of Phone Screens

The University of Pennsylvania, a large and prestigious higher education institution, needed a way to speed up recruiting and reduce costs while maintaining compliance and consistency across interviews. Their central recruitment team sought an easy-to-use tool that would streamline screening without adding complexity.

They adopted Spark Hire to replace traditional phone screens, eliminating phone interviews entirely and significantly reducing screening time and costs. The platform lets hiring managers ask the same questions to every candidate for greater compliance, improves collaboration by giving teams access to recorded interviews, and proved inexpensive, contract-free, and supported by responsive customer success — a solution they’ve continued using successfully for years.
