Sprockets, the leading Hiring Assessment Platform powered by IBMs Watson AI, grew its capabilities, adding the Sprockets Boost app to the Chrome Web Store. With in-demand features that make assessing and hiring new employees easier, Sprockets Boost is the first app to connect all web-based HR and recruiting tools into an assessment platform.

Sprockets Boost is designed with both HR professionals and hiring managers in mind, further streamlining the hiring and assessment process. Throughout the hiring process, managers are forced to bounce from tool to tool in order to make a hire. Boost removes these steps by connecting a company’s HR tech stack to the Sprockets platform.

Customers will no longer need to have the Sprockets platform open to get access to their reports. Simply download Sprockets Boost, go to any webpage on the internet, and send out the Sprockets survey or review current candidates with two simple clicks.

“The current job market is tight and recruiting top talent continues to be a challenge,” said CEO AJ Richichi. “Our customers can’t afford to waste time jumping from one recruiting tool to the next, so we have done our part to eliminate that headache through the development of Sprockets Boost. As long as you’re in a web-based tool, you can send candidates assessments and review their scores without ever leaving the page. This gives our customers the flexibility to choose what HR tool works best for their business, without sacrificing the insights generated by Sprockets Assessments.”

The new features in this release of Sprockets Boost include:

• Boost Your Application Tracking System – Invite individual candidates from inside your web-based ATS to the Sprockets survey instantly.
• Boost Your Job Boards – Invite and analyze multiple candidates from job boards and spreadsheets with a single click.
• Boost Your Insights – Quickly review candidate scores without leaving your webpage.
• Boost Your Hiring Process – Efficiently integrate Sprockets into your hiring process to have better insight into your candidate pool.

The new app is available immediately to all HR professionals and hiring managers using the Sprockets Assessment Platform, and is the first major release since Sprockets first launched three months ago.
