The integrated candidate screening system, which is powered by NorthgateArinso PeopleChecking and linked to StepStone's i-GRasp Applicant Tracking system, allowed the firm to reduce the number of staff dealing with recruitment by 75% and reduce the time taken to fill vacancies.
The group receives approximately 20,000 job applications every year and only 3% of them will take up one of the 600 roles available, so LV= was keen to ensure the best applicants fill the places
David Smith, group HR director at the insurance pensions and investment company, said: "Recruiting people with the right skills and experience is a must if we are to succeed as a business.
"We recognise the importance of the referencing process, given we work in a regulated industry. Therefore having a robust streamlined process in place is essential."
