Volume Outran Recruiter Time
A large applicant pool needed a repeatable first screen before recruiter conversations.
High Application Volume
More than 250 applications required an initial assessment.
Thin CV Signal
CVs alone gave limited insight into communication and basic role-relevant responses.
Manual Introductory Calls
Live introductory screening used recruiter capacity before candidates could be compared consistently.
Remote Integrity
An asynchronous process needed controls to help identify potential irregularities for recruiter review.
An Asynchronous Screen Ahead of Recruiter Review
VProPle deployed Interview Bites as a one-way assessment workflow. Zyvka's recruiters reviewed the evidence and chose who progressed.
Screening Questions
Role-relevant questions captured information beyond the resume.
Video Responses and MCQs
Applicants completed short video responses alongside screening questions and objective MCQs.
Proctoring and Controls
Proctoring added controls to help flag potential irregularities for recruiter review.
Asynchronous Completion
Applicants completed the screen independently without a live interview slot.
Central Recruiter Review
