Case Study: Pilgrim's Friend Society boosts applicant quality with TestGorilla

Boosting applicant quality for hiring success

Pilgrim's Friend Society, a provider of residential care for seniors, needed to improve its process for assessing the technical and soft skills of applicants for its senior-level roles. Their ad-hoc methods were not effectively evaluating key competencies like IT literacy, leading to poor-quality hires. To address this challenge, the organization turned to TestGorilla for its skills assessment platform.

By implementing TestGorilla, the society gained access to a vast test library to create role-specific assessments for positions like finance and marketing. The solution provided immediate results, boosting the overall quality of applicants and allowing hiring managers to filter out unqualified candidates. The use of TestGorilla's benchmarking and anti-cheating features ensured candidates demonstrated their true abilities, resulting in a majority of new hires performing well in their roles.
