Case Study: Ocean Outdoor cuts screening and interview time with TestGorilla

Revamping hiring for faster candidate screening

Ocean Outdoor UK, a digital out-of-home advertising firm, faced a significant challenge in its finance department with a lengthy and inefficient hiring process. They needed to fill roles quickly but were spending too much time screening unsuitable candidates from external recruiters and conducting interviews, which often resulted in poor hires that did not pass their probation period. To address this, they turned to the talent assessment solution from TestGorilla.

By implementing TestGorilla's assessments, the team created a customized 45-minute test focusing on attention to detail and role-specific questions. This solution from TestGorilla allowed them to screen a larger pool of candidates more effectively, saving up to 10 hours per position on CV reviews and interviews. As a result, Ocean Outdoor UK decreased its rate of unsuccessful hires by approximately 44% and was able to confidently identify and hire candidates with the right skills.
