KPIT, a global leader in automotive and mobility solutions, faced significant inefficiencies in their hiring process. The company relied heavily on manual L1 and L2 interview rounds, which not only incurred high costs but also introduced human bias and created inconsistencies in candidate evaluation. To address these challenges, KPIT partnered with WeCP to streamline their hiring process using AI-driven assessments—all without relying on AI avatars or chatbots.
The Need for Change
KPIT identified several key challenges in their hiring process:
- High Costs for L1 & L2 Interviews: The manual nature of initial interview rounds consumed valuable time and resources, increasing recruitment costs.
- Human Bias and Candidate Experience: Interviews were often influenced by subjective judgments, leading to inconsistencies and a less-than-ideal experience for candidates.
- Reduced Productivity: Internal teams spent significant time conducting repetitive L1 and L2 interviews, which could have been better utilized for strategic tasks.
- Quality of Hire: Without standardized evaluations, ensuring that only the most qualified candidates advanced through the hiring funnel was a challenge.
The Solution
WeCP worked with KPIT to implement an WeCP AI that replaced L1 and L2 interviews with automated, skill-based assessments. The solution was tailored to KPIT’s unique requirements and focused on:
- Cost Savings: By automating the early interview rounds, KPIT significantly reduced costs associated with human involvement in L1 and L2 interviews.
- Standardized Evaluations: WeCP’s assessments eliminated human bias, providing an objective, consistent way to evaluate candidates.
- Enhanced Candidate Experience: The AI-driven assessments offered a seamless and fair evaluation process, improving how candidates perceived the company.
- Productivity Gains: Internal teams saved time previously spent on L1 and L2 interviews, allowing them to focus on higher-value tasks like strategic decision-making and final-stage interviews.
- Improved Quality of Hire: Comprehensive assessments ensured only the most qualified candidates advanced, enhancing the overall talent pool.
