High-volume recruitment / EQO Screen, Interview and Score

“Speed is super important in recruiting nowadays. On Monday morning, we can actually get a shortlist of the best candidates from the weekend that we can directly call and plan an interview with.”

Senior Career Manager, Spring Professional

From high candidate volume to a faster hiring flow

CHALLENGES

High candidate volumes were putting increasing pressure on recruiters

High application volumes were putting increasing pressure on Spring Professional’s recruitment team. For commercial advisor roles in the banking sector, recruiters needed to quickly identify candidates with the right language skills, commercial mindset and customer-facing experience — without slowing down the hiring process. With hundreds of applications to assess, manually contacting and screening every candidate was becoming increasingly difficult to scale.
SOLUTION

Using VONQ’s EQO Screen, Interview and Score to move faster, reduce recruiter workload and keep human interaction where it matters most.

VONQ helped automate the first stage of the hiring journey.Candidates could complete knockout questions and an AI-led interview whenever it suited them — including evenings and weekends.

Recruiters received structured candidate insights and a shortlist of the strongest profiles, so they could move straight to the human conversations that create real hiring value.

AI-powered pre-screening that works around the clock

Always-on candidate screening

Candidates could start the first stage of the hiring process immediately, without depending on recruiter working hours.

Smarter candidate shortlisting
VONQ helped identify relevant candidates based on key requirements, interview responses and role-specific skills.
More time for human interaction
With less manual screening, recruiters could spend more time speaking with the candidates most likely to be a strong fit.
RESULTS

Less screening.
Faster follow-up. 11 hires.

Instead of manually contacting and screening hundreds of applicants, recruiters could quickly focus on the strongest candidates. That meant a significant reduction in manual work — while still keeping recruiters fully in control of the final decision.


The proof of concept also showed that the hiring process could keep moving outside traditional office hours, helping Spring Professional respond to promising candidates faster.

“For this commercial advisor role in the banking sector, we were looking for candidates with the right commercial skills and strong French. VONQ helped us identify the best-fit candidates faster.”
