Challenges Faced

Bottlenecks in bench-to-billing - Despite high technical skills, young employees were not being deployed on projects due to poor English communication skils, resulting into empty billable hours and impact on revenue.

Lack of skill benchmarking & training need identification - With a lack of skill benchmarking for business English skills across the organization, identifying skill gaps and training needs would have been costly & time-consuming as it required a new process from scratch.

Lack of holistic evaluation in a single test - There was no tool that could measure performance indicators of business English skills on all four aspects: Listening, Speaking, Reading, Writing.

The Learning & Development leaders at Capgemini collaborated with iMocha to drive business English skill evaluation of 3,500+ fresh graduate employees.

Skill Consulting for Customized Evaluation

The assessments were created to simulate real-world English communication challenges that employees face during project delivery. The program was developed accessing a large library for all four skills - Listening, Speaking, Reading, and Writing - and using a mix of three difficulty levels.

Automated, data-driven evaluation with AI-powered engine‚Äç

With AI-powered engine backed by strong NLP models, Capgemini eliminated time-consuming, manual process and replaced it with fast, automated, accurate scoring at scale to evaluate business English skills for fresher training program.

Skill benchmarking & training need identification

Capgemini measured business English competency of the employees and benchmarked their skills against global CEFR standard.

iMocha reports included comprehensive skill-gap analysis with skill-wise breakdown. The in-depth analytics covered critical performance parameters such as language understanding, readability, oral fluency, grammar, vocabulary and more.

Capgemini zoomed into areas of strength & improvements to identify 26% of employees who had training needs and designed targeted training programs.
