Filtering System

Solving the problems faced by HR departments
Having learned from their early days, XpressJobs polished themselves and offered their services for free. Then six months passed and they started charging companies. Suddenly, the tone...
See More of their clients had changed. The clients started sharing their recruitment problems with the XpressJobs team. If they were going to be charged, then they needed to see something valuable. The XpressJobs team took it as a challenge and was determined to deliver.
This was the attitude Oshadie had when she walked into the HR department of HSBC one day and learned of a major problem they faced. Whenever HSBC put out a job advertisement, they would receive over 1000 applicants. However, they only needed to hire 10 people and had no way of sorting and going through the applications in an efficient manner. Oshadie shared this issue with the rest of the team. They looked around and found that this was a common problem amongst many large corporates.
Seeing this, XpressJobs built their filtering system. The idea behind the system was simple. All it did was ask a few general questions from the applicant to see if they were fit for the job. These questions would be ones that a recruiter would ask during an interview. Once the candidate answers these series’ of questions, then a final score is calculated to see how qualified a candidate is for the job.
While the idea behind the filtering system is simple, the results were surprisingly effective. This was because many applicants had surprisingly not read the job specification. Rather they simply saw the name of the company and applied. XpressJobs helped filter the number of applicants down and showed their clients exactly how much value they help generate in the recruitment process. Once it was operational at HSBC, everyone wanted it.
