GlaxoSmithKline hires Quality Analysts using HireLabs’ Talent Score Cards

GlaxoSmithKline hires Quality Analysts using HireLabs’ Talent Score Cards

Challenge

  • Fill one Quality Analyst position
  • Candidates shortlisted by GSK’s pool of head hunting firms were not completely matching the position
  • Candidate data shared by head hunting firms was not optimised for quick, effective hiring decisions

Solution

  • Provide Talent Score Cards of top 5 candidates
  • Screen (test and interview) a batch of 5 candidates

Approach

  • Conduct job needs analysis with GSK HR and line manager
  • Post job through its specialized job portal, Tested Talent
  • Test job applicants on 6 competencies related to the position:
    • Communication
    • Creative Problem Solving
    • Logical Reasoning
    • Decision Making
    • Quality Assurance
  • Conduct behavioral interviews with shortlisted candidates
  • Share Talent Score Cards of top 5 candidates with GSK
  • GSK shortlists candidates for interview
  • GSK hires a candidate matching the Quality Analyst position

Outcome

  • GSK found that the candidates assessed HireLabs were well matched with the Quality Analyst (QA) position. Hence, instead of filling one Quality Analyst position as initially planned, GSK created a second QA position and hired two of HireLabs’ candidates instead of one.
  • By using candidates’ Talent Score Card, it is estimated, GSK reduced the time by 45 per cent to hire a candidate for the position
