Anticipate need for changeOVEX TECH encountered with the problem of very non-specific
hiring procedures and policies.
The company used to rely on judgments of interviewer based on his own assumptions and dimensions.
Each interviewer evaluated according to his point of view, which could be different from others.
The evaluation terms have no quantitative numbers attached to them, so at times there arises conflict among the interviewers.

Diagnostic PhaseOVEX TECH PAKISTAN identifies need for changing their hiring

The current performance and the level of quality was low in that area.

ConclusionThe analysis has revealed that although there is a little
discrepancy with the standard techniques, however there is always a room for improvement.
Some people do not perform well all of a sudden for the tests and interview at the same time.
Some people are competent but they lack communication skills, therefore they would be screened out at the interview.
RecommendationsAdopt a flexible hiring strategy by adopting on the job scenarios
in the process of hiring. By using this method, they can test various other skills and hidden capabilities of the candidates instead of seeing only the obvious ones which may not meet expectations.
