Why do Educational Institutions need to automate
their GD-WAT-PI processes?
Typically, educational institutions conduct group discussions (GD), written ability tests (WAT), and personal interview (PI) rounds manually. Due to the arduous nature of the process, it is difficult to handle it for thousands of candidates in one go. This ultimately leads to operational inefficiencies, major expenses, poor candidate experience, and ultimately, fewer quality admissions.
Meritto (formerly NoPaperForms) GD-WAT-PI platform helps educational institutions streamline and automate their post application processes in a unified platform. With exclusive features such as flexible slot booking, dynamic venue allocation, panel assignment, video interviews and live attendance tracking, you can sort, shortlist, and evaluate candidates via your preferred logics and make impactful decisions to drive quality enrolments.
Distribute Leads efficiently to
eliminate Lead Leakage
For a smooth nurturing process, having a single view of all the leads is not enough. Distribution of leads requires you to know your leads better, segment them based on numerous criteria, and then, allocate them to the right counsellor.
Schedule sessions instantly with flexible GD-PI Slot Booking
Now you can automatically allocate the GD/PI slots or provide your candidates with an option to choose and book available slots as per their preference. Post booking the slots, the candidate will receive an auto-triggered email/SMS/WhatsApp communication in real time, thereby confirming their slots in an efficient, instinctive manner.
Maximize team productivity with automated Panel Assignment
Ensure end-to-end GD-PI management by assigning panels and evaluators to the candidates. Automate trigger-based workflows and notify the evaluators when to initiate the interview as well as candidates to join the same through the Meritto’ Student Admission Portal. In case an evaluator or candidate misses out on the communication, customize meeting reminders for them and deliver a seamless, end-to-end applicant experience.

Take Video Interviews from anywhere, anytime
Conduct GD-PI Interviews virtually on Meritto’ single dashboard without breaking a sweat. Enable the panelists and applicants to connect virtually via Zoom, Google Meet or MS Teams by clicking the “Join” button parked against the candidate’s name, on the top of any live panel.
Not only that, evaluate the performance of the applicants in real-time with the help of customizable parameters, while the GD/PI is still ongoing or after the sessions have been completed.
Never miss out on any opportunity with Live Attendance Tracking
Have you ever wanted a simple and convenient way to track the attendance of candidates? Through this feature, know how many candidates turned up for the interviews on the day of the interviews and spot their attendance patterns. You also have the facility to mark candidates as either present or absent and make last-minute adjustments to your panel allocation, with a push of a button!
For Offline GD-WAT-PI Processes
Plan your venue capacity effortlessly
In case you are conducting your post application processes offline, you can define multiple venues for thousands of candidates at once and help them choose their preferred centres with minimal operational efforts. Set the maximum capacity of students dynamically for all the venues and experience the beauty of the system as all candidates are accommodated well before the final day of the interview!
Allocate test centres dynamically
Based on maximum capacity intake and candidate preferences, allocate your test centres dynamically. Also, set your custom metrics for the number of days the post application processes will run along and configure your own preferable time slots that match your and your team’s bandwidths.

Most often than not, we tend to mix-up our process flow. NPF helped us in this as it had predefined set processes that also reduced the use of additional manpower at places. Read more
- Abhay Chebbi, Director Admissions, Alliance University
The onboarding process was quite surprising; as we expected it to take time and effort but guess what: the seamlessness is more than just a thought. It is a practice, a design embedded in the product and the transition from there on has been quite phenomenal: we were up and running in no time. Admissions are complex, and it would be, for anyone without a solution meant to solve the problems that come with it. We are glad we have found our solution: Meritto. Read more

We would like to extend our sincere gratitude and appreciation for NPF's continuous service and guidance since we associated in July 2019. Their dedicated support and hand holding during the recent Online GDPI (Virtual Post Application exercise - VPA) is a testimony of their commitment and was of substantial value to us. We take this opportunity to thank Meritto and their entire team for holding this exercise for us and training our faculty and staff to handle the system effectively. We look forward to this dedicated support for our future processes too. Read more
