The Challenge
Before adopting TestTrick, First Habib Modaraba relied on a traditional paper-based testing system that created a series of operational and strategic roadblocks:
Paper-Based Tests
All assessments were printed and distributed manually — a time-consuming and costly process that required physical storage of papers and increased administrative overhead.
Time-Consuming Process
From scheduling candidates to conducting tests, evaluating answer sheets, and preparing result summaries, each stage involved manual effort, often delaying hiring by days.
Physical Accommodation for Candidates
Every applicant had to travel to FHM’s premises to participate, excluding high-potential candidates from outside the city or those with travel limitations.
No Automation
With no automated scoring system, HR staff manually checked answers, increasing the risk of calculation errors and inconsistencies in evaluation.
High Administrative Burden on HR
Managing venues, invigilators, test papers, and candidate attendance consumed a large portion of HR’s time, leaving less focus for interviews and strategic tasks.
Limited Scalability
Scaling assessments for large hiring drives was challenging due to space, manpower, and processing limitations.
Data Security Risks
Storing sensitive candidate information in physical form posed risks of data loss, misplacement, or unauthorized access.
Lack of Detailed Performance Insights
Manual evaluation only provided overall scores, with no breakdown of strengths, weaknesses, or topic-specific performance.
Difficulty in Standardizing Tests
Different batches sometimes received slightly different paper versions, making it hard to ensure absolute consistency and fairness across candidates.
