Talkpush and Vervoe established a push and pull integration to increase automation on the candidate selection process to fast-track the next hiring step.

Talkpush, the leader in recruitment automation, wants to work with companies that see their talent pool as their greatest competitive asset. Vervoe, the leader in skills assessments, is on a mission to reinvent the recruiting experience to make it effective, fair and enjoyable. The two companies’ complementary services help employers expand their talent pool, and build a better, more universal, and validated recruitment process. The companies are delighted to announce a partnership, supported by an integration between the two platforms, that will benefit its joint customers to help them identify the most suitable candidates faster, and give candidates more real-time visibility into the hiring process.

Vervoe is an assessment platform that offers customizable assessments for employers to test both technical and soft skills for a complete candidate profile — with AI-powered candidate ranking for data-driven decision making.

Talkpush users can now create workflows in which shortlisted candidates automatically receive a position-specific Vervoe assessment. With both platforms completely in sync, recruiters can now view candidates progress and assessment scores in real-time.

How it works
Candidates can apply through their preferred channel, be it Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, or job boards on the company’s career site. Once they complete their pre-screening, they automatically receive the link to the position-specific Vervoe assessment. Once the assessment is complete, Vervoe automatically adds the score to the candidate profile inside Talkpush, so that recruiters can easily see it, share it and make the right decision.
