The demand for superlative linguistic abilities
While it was easy to find people with knowledge and good communication skills in English in India, finding people with a high level of fluency and proficiency was certainly a huge challenge.
Technology skills

Psychological Test

Recruitment Solutions And Approach
Alliance Recruitment Agency assigned the search tasks to its education industry recruitment consultants in India. A team of consultants was chosen to map and source talent from 10 cities.
We advised the client to create an online system for a series of tests that interested candidates could take. We also suggested an intuitive interface that could prompt test takers to immediately take or schedule their next assessment. A dashboard was created through which the employer could track records. These initiatives speeded up the talent search and selection process, cutting down 90% of the scheduling and coordination time.
Our consultants conducted market mapping and sourced talent using highly attractive brochures and other material highlighting the benefits of career growth, compensation, and benefits.
Within 18 days, 85 candidates attempted the assessments, and 40 cleared the tests with good results. Through the referrals provided by successful candidates, we engaged with 20 more candidates and managed a fast-paced assessment process. Within 24 days, 55 candidates cleared all the assessments and were ready for the final round of interviews.
Within 31 days, 55 teachers had accepted the job offer, and the client could smoothly schedule new batches. Following a one-month notice period, the teachers joined the online company and were ready for the new batches.
