Siemens Türkiye Optimizes Trainee Recruitment with TestInvite

What were their objectives?

Siemens Türkiye, a pivotal player in the technology and engineering sector, embarked on an innovative journey to optimize their management trainee program. Seeking to attract top-tier talent from universities across Türkiye, they integrated TestInvite’s advanced testing solutions to streamline their recruitment process. This initiative marked Siemens Türkiye's first collaboration with TestInvite, aimed at overcoming the limitations experienced with previous platforms.

Primary objectives of Siemens Turkiye

Their primary objectives included:

• Implementing a robust assessment tool to accurately identify high-potential candidates.
• Ensuring a fair and secure testing environment through stringent security measures.
• Introducing an innovative video interview process to assess candidates' communication and problem-solving skills.

How did they achieve their goals with TestInvite?

To meet their ambitious goals, Siemens Türkiye adopted TestInvite’s MT Aptitude Test, specifically designed to address the common issue of overly simplistic tests that fail to differentiate between top candidates effectively. This test ensured a normal distribution of results, allowing Siemens Türkiye to accurately pinpoint standout performers among nearly 3000 students from the nation's premier universities.

Security and integrity

Understanding the critical importance of maintaining test integrity, Siemens Türkiye implemented TestInvite’s browser lockdown feature. This security measure ensured that the assessment process was conducted under strict surveillance, preventing cheating and preserving the credibility of the test results.

Innovative video interview process

Further enhancing their selection process, Siemens Türkiye utilized TestInvite’s advanced test creation tools to design a unique video interview segment. This component consisted of five questions requiring video responses, thereby allowing an in-depth evaluation of candidates' communication abilities and their approach to problem-solving in real-time scenarios.

What additional value did TestInvite provide?

TestInvite provided Siemens Türkiye with significant added value by enabling a seamless integration of diverse assessment types within a single platform. This flexibility not only facilitated a comprehensive evaluation of technical and soft skills but also streamlined the management of complex assessment processes, ensuring a smooth candidate experience throughout the recruitment cycle.

What outcomes and successes were achieved?

The collaboration between Siemens Türkiye and TestInvite yielded substantial benefits:

• Effective candidate differentiation: The MT Aptitude Test’s challenging nature and normal result distribution effectively identified the most capable candidates, enhancing the quality of the management trainee program.
• Enhanced security and fairness: The use of browser lockdown technology guaranteed a secure and fair testing environment, crucial for maintaining the integrity of the selection process.
• Innovative assessment techniques: The integration of a video interview process provided deeper insights into candidates' skills, significantly enriching the assessment methodology.

Siemens Türkiye’s adoption of TestInvite transformed their management trainee recruitment approach, setting a new standard for efficiency and thoroughness in candidate selection. This partnership not only highlighted the capabilities of TestInvite’s solutions but also demonstrated Siemens Türkiye's commitment to embracing innovative technologies to attract and evaluate top talent effectively.
