TalentBridge Technologies' CALIBRAT

Every organization focuses on hiring only the best candidates for their teams. If your organization is still using traditional recruitment processes then you might be holding your growth back. Evaluating and generating results from assessments to acquire appropriate talent that suits your company’s requirement is now more seamless with the use of a cloud-based assessment platform. As all of us know, the cloud is everything! Cloud-based assessment platforms help recruiters getting feedback from the key people about the candidate; however, traditional recruitment processes make it strenuous to get everyone up-to-date on the latest candidates.

The recruitment landscape has changed drastically with the adoption of new technologies. TalentBridge Technologies is a leading name in the recruitment industry with comprehensive and unique offerings. The company offers the cloud-based assessment platform- CALIBRAT.

CALIBRAT (earlier iHiring) is an advanced, scalable and secure online assessment platform which helps the talent acquisition team to evaluate Aptitude, Technical Skills and Written Communication Skills using various evaluation formats. Innovations in assessment solution have greatly reduced the manual efforts in administering and proctoring the screening tests, and also nearly eliminated the possibility of evaluation errors. The security features are an important element of the online assessment platform as it’s extremely critical to protect the integrity of assessment and prevent anyone from compromising the credibility of the screening process. The state of art security features like random candidate snapshot (with Face detection and recognition technology) while candidates are taking assessments eliminates any impersonation and makes the assessment secure particularly in a remote environment without any invigilator or proctor. The assessment platform can track the on-screen activities of candidates while they are taking assessments and the test administrator can monitor all the candidates centrally. The evolved assessment platform also offers features to conduct multi-lingual online assessments.

The masterminds behind the longstanding growth of the company are its founders, Mr. Gauravendra

Shukla (CEO) and Mr. Sandip

Yuwanati (COO). Under their innovative and solution-oriented vision, TalentBridge Technologies' team is making efforts to transform businesses with quality HR solutions.

Solutions that Make Recruitment Processes Easier

In recent years’ scalability and security of the platform has become a key driving factor to determine the suitability of the platform. CALIBRAT has been built with emerging technologies. It's a highly scalable and secure platform with intuitive UI/UX. State of the art feature like ‘Proctor’ ensures remote proctoring using a central monitoring console along with Face Detection and Recognition technology to authenticate the identity of the candidate. Such features give complete control to the Assessment Administrator to maintain the integrity of the assessment. Mobility coupled with enterprise-scale functionality (for delivery of assessments) has been a tremendous value-addition to overcome infrastructural and geographical bottlenecks.

Bringing Innovation to the Table

As the job market is becoming competitive in India as well as across the world, assessment and interviewing platforms would evolve as a growing segment in HR Technology. This growth will be driven by advanced forms of assessments, machine learning and AI-based assessment solutions, and advanced analytics for a higher level of predictive insights on screening.

“TalentBridge aspires to build innovative solutions in measurement and predictive tools using some of the next-generation technologies.”

The recruiters not only can do away with hard copies of resumes but can screen resume without actually going through each resume using resume or profile rating tools. Even a simple feature like randomizing the questions and options appearing on the test screen reduces the possibility of any cheating or violation by the candidates.

The mobility delivery assessment solutions offer a very effective mechanism to conduct assessments overcoming infrastructure bottlenecks.

With the proliferation of Tablets and smartphones well supported by internet infrastructure, online video interviews are becoming convenient and cost-effective modes to conduct personal discussions. The assessment reporting and analytics provide tremendous flexibility to prune the candidate shortlist considering all possible dimensions of assessment scores and profiles.
