Finding the Right Personnel

Locating the ideal job candidate in a job posting is like finding a needle in a stack of needles. With unemployment rates hovering and employed persons more apt than ever to seek other positions, it's no wonder that your job postings produce hundreds and even thousands of responses. Out of that resume stack though, which person is the right person for the job?

Sorting through piles of resumes is time consuming and it is something we increasingly do not have time for. Fortunately, there is a better way. There is a more accurate way. Moreover, there is a better, more scientific means of churning the milk and helping the cream rise to the top.

Enter psychometric pre-employment testing. These tools relieve the pressure related to finding ideal qualified professionals. Most importantly, through these tools, you and your hiring staff access branded job boards, unlimited listings, usable reports, and friendly application processes. More specifically, your company creates a pipeline for its future job needs.


In addition to providing you with the information you need to select the best of the best, our system supplies you with measureable, itemized results. This data is vital to a company's success this day in age. Everything is fast paced in our world today. Your ideal applicants will not be there for months, waiting for the best prospect. They will be enticed by the first. Our tools help your business be that prospect.

Sales Professionals - Hiring Benefits of Employee Screening

As employers, we want the best sales experts possible. We want top-performing, focused individuals who are self-motivated and driven by success. When you find these princes and princesses of profitability, we know it. Wouldn't it be nice if there was a better way to know who is on the level and who is not?

Applicant testing is the key to discovering sales professionals, weeding out individuals who don't have the right stuff, and arming your company with the personnel it needs to grow. Remember though, when you want the best of the best, you must trust the best of the tests.

Detailed analytic tools like our employee screening (SSI) test measure every aspect of a sales professional. They take personality elements into account, quantify relationship building skills, and calculate basic as well as advanced sales skills.

Our SSI Test Assesses Skills Like:
Prospecting
Impression and Approach
Qualifying
Persuasion
Closing


In addition to providing you with tangible evidence, our test gives you a recommended basis for the aforementioned and other measurements. This makes selecting the best of the best as easy as averaging grades—and our test does the math for you. Moreover, it puts additional training needs into focus by noting how below or above a person is relative to each field.

Keeping Your Workforce Happy - Our Employee Retention Strategies

Maintaining your existing workforce is just as important as adding new faces through business growth and development. We understand that managers provide the greatest value when they motivate their team and have a positive influence on their co-workers. Using our coaching tools, we can show you how to overwrite failure patterns, and measure employee satisfaction.

Our employee retention strategies use 3 different tools to maximize effectiveness:
  • Corporate Coaching Tools – A corporate coach measures an employee’s attitude toward the company and their position, while improving development and morale. This set of tools allows for improved communication between employees and managers, along with providing various training solutions.
  • Emotional Intelligence Quotient – Measuring self-awareness, motivation, self-regulation, empathy, and social skills, an EIQ is designed to improve an employee’s ability to interact with and influence others around them. This helps managers and other officials make difficult and complex decisions.
  • Professional Development Coach – used for management, staff, and sales training purposes, this toolset measures how an individual’s approach to his or her job reflects personal attitudes, interests, and values. This helps you understand, engage, and develop each employee in your organization.
