Challenge

Scaling Talent Without Sacrificing Quality

A leading North American telecommunications provider operating across multiple global sites needed to consistently recruit high-quality customer experience talent at scale. But its legacy recruiting process relied heavily on human judgment and single-threaded assessment tools, creating variability in how candidates were evaluated across skills, language proficiency, and locations. 

The challenge became even greater with the launch of a new site that required the organization to ramp from zero to more than 160 agents in just 60 days. Traditional recruiting methods couldn't provide the speed, consistency, or candidate quality needed to meet aggressive hiring targets. 

The client needed a partner that could: 

  • Rapidly identify qualified candidates at scale  

  • Reduce subjectivity in skills and language assessment  

  • Maintain consistent hiring standards across global locations  

  • Accelerate hiring and ramp for new-site launches  

  • Improve downstream training success and employee retention 

Solution

Reengineering Recruiting with AI

iQor deployed Recruiting iQ, part of infinityAiQ, to create a more intelligent and consistent approach to talent acquisition. 

Instead of relying primarily on subjective screening, Recruiting iQ introduced AI-powered assessments to evaluate job-relevant skills and language proficiency, helping identify candidates with the capabilities and communication standards needed for the role. Combined with centralized recruiting teams and a redesigned hiring workflow, the model enabled faster decision-making while maintaining consistent standards across locations.
