Communicating Spark Hire Meet to hiring managers

The most important messages to get across to your team, specifically hiring managers, include

• What problems will Spark Hire solve for us?
• How will Spark Hire solve those problems?
• What’s in it for the hiring managers?
• What do you need from the hiring managers?

With this context, it’s then important for you to set and align on expectations with them.

Most customers find success when they lean into making a specific Spark Hire assessment a requirement as part of any hiring process rather than leaving it up to the hiring manager.

Lastly, it can help to give your hiring managers a quick demo overview of Spark Hire Meet and a look at who else is using it.

Spark Hire has been around since 2012 serving 7,000+ organizations around the world.

What's in it for hiring managers?

If you're trying to figure out how to shape the narrative for hiring managers, here's a place to start:

Candidates have never looked more alike on paper.

The rise of AI tools has made it easy for candidates to mass apply for positions and optimize their resume for the job description.

So, how do we really cut through the noise, highlight what matters, and identify the best fit?

This is why we're using Spark Hire Meet.

The solution allows us to invite candidates to complete a variety of assessments on their own time which makes it convenient for you to review and collaborate with us about their results.

The assessments provide all of us with additional context and data points to make better decisions.

As a hiring manager, this not only saves you time in the hiring process, but more importantly, helps you hire the best person for your team.

How do we know candidates will do it?

A question many HR and talent acquisition teams receive from their hiring managers is: "How do we know candidates will do the assessment?"

Assessments as part of the hiring process is nothing new to job seekers. Perhaps they’ve never done the specific type of assessment, but many have the expectation that if they want a job, they’ll complete some form of assessment.

According to SHRM, 54% of organizations use pre-employment assessments to gauge applicants’ knowledge, skills, and abilities during the hiring process.

Some customers get hung up on candidates who opt to not complete the assessment, but this can be for so many reasons that are unrelated to the assessment itself. Therefore, many customers use assessment completion as an indication of how engaged/interested a candidate actually is.
