A predictive and objective approach.

In 2022, as it modernized its HR processes, CAF du Rhône was looking for a tool capable of going beyond the CV to assess candidates on their potential and behavioral skills. The aim: to optimize recruitment decisions and ensure better alignment with the values and requirements of the public service.

Thanks to AssessFirst, CAF has integrated a predictive approach based on the assessment of soft skills, enabling it to better identify the personality, motivation and cognitive abilities of candidates.

An integrated tool for all stages of recruitment.

AssessFirst is now a central part of the recruitment process at CAF du Rhône. Each candidate interviewed undergoes an assessment, the results of which are analyzed in collaboration with managers. This approach enables :

  • A more global view of candidates, beyond their academic experience.
  • A detailed assessment of the potential for integration and development within the organization.
  • Enhanced candidate experience, with personalized feedback to enrich their career path.

A concrete impact on HR decisions.

Since implementing the tool, CAF du Rhône has :

  • Developed 70 predictive models aligned with the requirements of each job.
  • AssessFirst integrated in 100% of recruitments, excluding external agencies.
  • Improved the relevance of selections, with candidates better suited to the department’s needs.

Lasting success and complete adoption.

The adoption of AssessFirst has exceeded initial expectations. Today, managers naturally integrate assessment into their selection process. A striking example illustrates this transformation:

During a recruitment process for administrative positions, a candidate with no specific qualifications revealed, via the AssessFirst test, rigor and organizational skills, as well as strong motivation. Selected on the basis of this assessment, he proved to be a key asset to his team.

Conclusion: By relying on AssessFirst, CAF du Rhône has strengthened the objectivity of its recruitment, optimized the candidate experience, and aligned its selection process with its public service mission. A strategic partnership for fairer, more efficient recruitment.
