Does your recruiting and hiring strategy attract people who will help you meet your organization’s current and future business goals? Profiles International can significantly improve your existing recruiting and hiring practices.
With the challenging economy, every recruiting and hiring decision is critical. Companies must be certain that every employee hired performs to the best of their ability and delivers significant value to the organization. One major issue that virtually every business struggles with is the challenge of recruiting quality employees.
In today’s rapidly changing business environment, recruiting and hiring strategies must go beyond the traditional staffing approaches from the past. Companies who continue to use outdated, poor employee recruiting and hiring practices will not only lose valuable time, money and resources, they will also lose the battle for talented employees. To maintain a competitive edge, you must be proactive in your recruitment processes to ensure that key talent is hired.
Recruiting and hiring top performing employees may be one of the most valuable activities you can do for your business. Profiles International’s recruiting and hiring solutions help managers and organizations to:
Profiles International takes the guesswork out of recruitment by helping you identify the right people with the right mix of skills, abilities, interests and job match before you hire them. Our philosophy is based on understanding the core characteristics of top performers in a job, and then using that knowledge to match people to those same characteristics. This gives candidates that match the pattern a high probability of being a top performer.
Increase Your Chances for Success in Recruiting and Hiring
Success in a job is based on much more than what you see on a resume or hear in an interview. A recent study showed that the correlation between the ability to deliver well in a job interview and the ability to do well on the job is just 14 percent, or one good employee out of every seven people you hire.
Profiles International provides a family of pre-hire screening tools proven help managers make the best hiring decisions.
- Background Checks - The 14 percent increases to 26 percent if the candidate passes a series of background checks.
- Personality Tests - If that 26 percent, or roughly one out of four, is still not a big enough percentage for you, consider traditional assessment tools used in the hiring process. These assessments measure personality characteristics. Personality tests raised the rate of success in hiring to 38 percent.
- Abilities Assessments - When applicants were tested for both abilities and personality, employers found they were hiring the right people just over half or about 54 percent of the time.
- Interest Assessments - To take it one step further, the study considered interest assessments, an even more sophisticated tool. This raised the successful hiring rate to 66 percent.
- Job Match Assessments - The study found that the most impressive and successful assessments are integrated measures of a combination of factors, and also include the concept of job match. They use cutting-edge technology combined with empirical data to evaluate the candidate against employees who are exemplary in performing their duties. These recruitment assessments increased an employer's ability to identify excellent candidates more than 75 percent of the time.
