How Spirit Airlines Simplified and Modernized Their Screening Process with Spark Hire

We needed a simpler and more modern technique to screen candidates quickly for roles we hire for in bulk such as Flight Attendants, Customer Service Agents, and Ramp Agents. Video interviewing allows us to prescreen candidates in a manner which saves us and them time while enhancing the candidate experience.

We used to conduct some interviews with Skype, but that still required us to devote time to connecting with candidates. Now, Spark Hire has decreased our need for Skype interviews.

We wanted to have clear ease of use for candidates and recruiters, great customer service, and a high-quality product.

We were most attracted to three elements of Spark Hire. First was the design of the platform and its ease of use. The ability to use Spark Hire via a computer as well as a phone or tablet with the Spark Hire app also held great appeal for my team. Last, we liked the ability to utilize different forms of interviews like one-way interviews, open interviews, and live interviews.

Easy! We received great support from both the technical and sales teams.

We average sending 150 interview requests monthly for 1 specific role and receive approximately a 50% return response rate, which is great for entry-level positions. Part of the benefit of Spark Hire is those who do not complete their interview would not be high-quality, engaged, employees.

We use Spark Hire as a pre-screening method for bulk hiring roles and during our open house hiring events. Since implementing Spark Hire, we have increased the quality of candidates in attendance at the events and decreased the time spent on in-person interviews.

We would use a pre-screening assessment test and do in-person interviews for all candidates who applied and passed.

We replaced our cumbersome pre-screening assessment with a Spark Hire one-way interview. Our team can then narrow down our applicants to the most qualified candidates to invite to in-person interviews

It was an easy sell! The team has the ability to watch the candidates’ video interviews at any time, in any place (with the mobile app), and decide on next steps if they are interested.

Video interviewing allows us to better prescreen our candidates. This saves the recruiters and candidates both travel and interview time.

When we realized we could discover our top quality candidates in an incredibly short amount of time.

With so many entry-level roles, all airlines mass-hire candidates. Spark Hire will allow them to quickly separate the diamond-in-the-rough candidates from those who will quickly turn over.

All the time we have saved in the interview process!

Not only does Spark Hire save us time, they also provide us with excellent customer service every time.

Fun, modern, simple
