The Challenge

“We conducted many events, but recruitment and onboarding could not keep up. We needed a way to hire faster and still be confident that every staff on the booth could explain the product correctly.”

Sales Performance

Recruitment did not scale with offline events

Each new event required a fresh wave of temporary sales staff. Manual interviews capped hiring at around 100 candidates per month. This limited how many events could run in parallel and increased last minute hiring pressure.

Onboarding failed at volume

New hires had to explain Bank Saqu’s product, highlight key USPs, and guide customers through account opening. Traditional onboarding sessions did not scale. Many hires were disengaged, missed critical product details, or communicated the wrong information on the ground.

What They Implemented and Benefits

1. AI Video Interviews for High Volume Sales Hiring

Bank Saqu used AI video interviews to run the first interview round for event sales roles. Candidates answered the same structured, sales-focused questions on video, allowing the team to screen communication skills and basic selling ability at scale.
What was assessed:
Clarity when explaining a product
Confidence speaking to customers
Basic Sales Communication skills
Impact:
Monthly interview capacity scaled from 100→300 candidates
Faster screening ahead of short-notice events
Consistent evaluation across all sales candidates

2. Interview and Skills Assessments for Sales Readiness

After hiring, Bank Saqu used interview and skills assessments to verify whether new hires were ready to represent the product. New hires completed structured sales roleplays with an AI interviewer, simulating real booth conversations.
What was assessed:
Product knowledge and understanding of key USPs
Ability to explain the product accurately
Handling common customer questions
Impact:
3x higher onboarding throughput for event staff
Clear signal on who was ready to be deployed to events
Reduced risk of incorrect product messaging during events
