In order to drive improved value for its clients, Afni selected and deployed Evolv’s Talent Intelligence suite in order to best match its talent to the company’s various hourly job roles, to improve each customer touch point.

“Working with Evolv presented a unique opportunity for us to be different, to stand out from the pack, to put our money where our mouth is relative to providing the industry’s best and most advanced outsourced services,” said Cindy Blackburn, Afni’s Vice President of Human Resources. Added Pete Vegors, Vice President of Contact Center Solutions Sales and Account Management at Afni, “Evolv brought to bear a powerful, customized, data-driven intelligence solution that improves over time; something we’d not seen before. Being able to fill staffing needs quickly and with the right people is essential in our business, and Evolv helps us respond capably to the changing needs of our customers.”
