Improving the candidate experience at AXA France with AssessFirst
AXA France has been using AssessFirst solutions to optimize its recruitment processes for over 10 years.
Béatrice Berger, manager of a recruitment team dedicated to distribution networks, shares her experience and the benefits of AssessFirst.
A better candidate experience.
The ergonomics and complete digitization of the AssessFirst platform transform the recruitment experience into a smooth and enjoyable process for candidates.
The various tests on offer, including Brain, Shape, and Drive, are designed to be quick and intuitive, enabling candidates to complete assessments without stress or confusion.
These tests provide immediately actionable and rewarding results, enabling candidates to receive constructive and positive feedback.
This approach not only improves candidate satisfaction, but also reinforces their perception of the company from the very first interactions.
Candidates particularly appreciate the transparency and speed of the process, which gives them a better understanding of their own skills and potential, while offering them a more personal and rewarding opportunity to engage with the recruitment team.
A collaborative approach.
Thanks to a close partnership with AssessFirst, AXA France was able to develop an innovative predictive model to identify the candidate profiles most likely to succeed within their teams.
This collaboration made it possible to analyze and model the characteristics of high-performing employees, and to establish a precise benchmark for new candidates.
By combining test data (Brain, Shape, Drive) and team feedback, AXA can now assess candidates in a more personalized and accurate way, ensuring a better match with job requirements and team dynamics.
This collaborative approach enhances the quality of recruitment while promoting a deeper understanding of each candidate’s skills and potential.
Recruitment based on Soft Skills.
At AXA France, the recruitment process focuses more on the skills and personal qualities of candidates than on their qualifications.
AssessFirst’s tools play a crucial role in this approach, enabling us to identify and measure essential soft skills, such as the ability to work in a team, resilience and adaptability.
By assessing these competencies, AXA can ensure that the candidates selected are not only technically qualified, but also aligned with the company’s culture and values, guaranteeing a better fit and enhanced performance within teams.
