SmartLynx Airlines' small talent acquisition team faced an unsustainable interview load as the airline aggressively scaled post-COVID, with manual phone screens leading directly to all-day back-to-back online meetings and initial hiring stages taking up to 6 weeks.

Outcome

HireVue compressed initial recruitment stages from up to 6 weeks to one week, saved recruiters 2–4 hours per day, expanded candidate reach to 66 countries, and achieved an 88.4% CSAT score from candidates.

What failed first

Before HireVue, the process jumped directly from phone screens to full online meetings with no asynchronous screening step, forcing recruiters into continuous full-day interview sessions.
