The Challenge

CoBuilders aims to place people in the right positions within construction and adds value for both their clients and candidates by using assessments from The Selection Lab. Integrated into their own "Strength Compass," the assessment serves as an objective second round in the selection process, providing value by validating competencies and personality traits and by effectively matching candidates to clients.

The Results

The implementation of The Selection Lab assessments has led to: • Improved intake-to-placement ratio: An increase from 20% to 28% within the past year. • Standardized processes: 80-90% of relevant candidates now complete an assessment. • Better client-candidate matches: Candidates are matched based on cultural preferences and competencies. • Positive candidate feedback: Over 140 candidates have completed the assessment for CoBuilders, with an average rating of 4 out of 5 stars. • Enhanced perception of CoBuilders: 98% of candidates felt more positive or neutral about CoBuilders after the process, and 97% considered the assessment an added value or neutral part to the recruitment process. The use of The Selection Lab assessments has helped CoBuilders enhance the quality and efficiency of their placements. By further optimizing and monitoring this process, the organization can continue to strengthen its services.

"The more we use it, the better it gets. All colleagues are now using it daily. Compared to last year, it has truly become the standard in our approach. I estimate that about 80 to 90% of the people we talk to and actively work with also complete an assessment."
