Case Study: F45 Training achieves repeatable, efficient hiring of six top personal trainers with Vervoe

F45 is Leading the Way in How to Hire Personal Trainers

F45 Training’s Mississauga Downtown studio faced the challenge of hiring skilled, motivated personal trainers without the time-consuming, hit-or-miss screening Doug Watson remembered from corporate recruiting. He turned to Vervoe and its assessment platform to create role-specific evaluations that would identify energy, experience, technical knowledge, and cultural fit for the boutique, high-intensity F45 model.

Vervoe helped implement a two-stage process—a personality-focused simulation (including video responses and streamed song selections) followed by a technical skills assessment—so candidates could be evaluated on real job-relevant tasks. Of 49 applicants who started, 30 completed both simulations, 12 were shortlisted for calls, and Doug hired six trainers, giving F45 Training a repeatable, measurable hiring process that found better-fit candidates more efficiently.
