Endiprev, a leading player in the renewable energy semiconductor manufacturing industry, has been at the forefront of innovation and sustainable practices. Their dedication to the environment and their commitment to excellence are integral to their success. As they expanded their operations, they encountered a series of challenges in their blue-collar hiring process:

The challenges

High turnover rates: Endiprev was grappling with a high turnover rate among blue-collar workers. They were often hiring candidates who were not the best fit for the roles, resulting in frequent resignations.

Inconsistent skills assessment: The company had difficulty in accurately assessing the skills and qualifications of candidates. This inconsistency resulted in a workforce that varied in skill levels, affecting the quality of work and safety standards.

Time-consuming screening: The traditional hiring process required extensive time and resources for reviewing resumes, conducting interviews, and verifying credentials. This inefficiency hindered the company’s ability to respond quickly to staffing needs.

Safety concerns: In the renewable energy sector, safety is paramount. Endiprev needed to ensure that every blue-collar worker was well-prepared to adhere to strict safety protocols. Inadequate screening put their safety record at risk.
