Capp is celebrating two wins at the Institute of Student
Employers’ Annual Student Recruitment Awards announced last night at the
organisation’s Annual Conference at Celtic Manor in Wales.
Capp has won the Outstanding Supplier Award for its work with GSK and Best
School Leaver / Apprenticeship Strategy for its work with Barclays.
Capp has partnered with GSK since 2016 as the company
reviewed how it selected candidates for its Apprenticeships, Future Leaders and
Esprit Programmes. Together, they have worked to develop a solution that immerses
candidates in GSK, its values and its everyday life. Called ‘The World of GSK
Talent Screen’, it delivers consistent first stage assessment in over 70 countries,
assessing candidates and providing an engaging, positive and immersive
candidate experience.
The World of GSK Talent Screen is the first of its kind to
be implemented globally. Already, 20,000 candidates have completed the first
stages of the assessment, with positive feedback from over 90 per cent of those
providing feedback. Capp and GSK are now working on delivering the next stages
– Job Simulation and Assessment Centre – as from August 2018.
Joe Voelcker, Global Head of Early Talent with GSK said,
‘Capp have amazing expertise in their Occupational Psychologists – they really
know their stuff but also are great on the client relationship front. I think
this is central to the Capp offer. The whole team is unbelievably high calibre
and they have often challenged our thinking to get a better outcome.’
Able to Enable is a new programme from Barclays that aims to
give 10 people with disabilities valuable experience in the workplace. Capp and
the bank worked with specialist Diversity and Inclusion organisations and
referral partners to support applications from candidates with mental health
and physical disabilities, following three key principles: using selection
methodology that assesses performance and potential with less reliance on past
academic success or experiences; innovative recruitment technology to create
consistency and to create authentic and educational content to immerse
candidates in the process.
Nicky Garcea, Chief Customer Officer with Capp said: ‘We are
thrilled that our work with Barclays and GSK has been recognised in this way by
the ISE and their judging panel. We are very proud of the work we achieve with
our clients and were particularly pleased to have four nominations in such
competitive awards.
‘The ISE Recruitment and Global Conferences are some of the
highlights of the Early Talent calendar. They provide valuable updates on
recruiting news and trends that as assessment and development specialists, we
would find it difficult to access elsewhere.
‘To win an award at such a prestigious industry event is a
real accolade, and we are grateful to our clients for providing us with the
opportunity to enter,’ added Nicky.
Capp has more than 12 years’ experience providing assessment
and development solutions for companies. It has more than 100 staff at offices
in London and Birmingham.
Its clients include BT, Thomson Reuters, Stonegate Pub
Company and NestlĂ© and this year it has already won two awards – Best Candidate
Experience for Barclays in the FIRM awards, and with Lloyds Banking Group in
the RAD Awards for Best Recruitment Technology Partnership.
Capp was also shortlisted for ISE Outstanding Supplier of the
Year for its work with Aviva, a client since 2011, and for Best Graduate
Assessment and Selection for its work with HSBC.
