"Eliminating injuries
from our workplace by focusing on the effects of behavior rather than just
systems and regulations has made a difference.”
For the past
few years, we, at All Building Corporation, have been using your Insure Survey
for the purpose of pre-employment assessment. While our labor shortage hasn't
gone away, we've realized that the need for improved recruitment, selection and
retention of qualified employees still remains crucial. The wrong hire leads to
more that just lost time and productivity.
Prior to using The Hiring
Suite, our procedure for screening applicants was not equipped with the
necessary tools to aid us in making an educative hiring decision. Not only has
your software program provided us with one of those tools, but your support and
guidance has been excellent.
Best of all, we are convinced that since
we have established a consistent hiring process, we have experienced less
turnover and have reduced our costs due to poor hiring decisions. Our
Experience Modifier has dropped from 1.02 to .89. Eliminating injuries from our
workplace by focusing on the effects of behavior rather than just systems and
regulations has made a difference. In judging the effect of bad experience on
the profitability of a business, the most obvious coverage affected is Workers
Compensation Insurance. Changes in the Experience Modification can quickly
increase or decrease Workman's Comp expense. In addition, for each dollar spent
there are two to four times the costs associated with hidden costs.
In
sum, the decision to use The Hiring Suite to improve our hiring process has
improved production down times, quality assurance, employee morale, customer
retention and reduced insurance premiums. Thank you for your support over the
past few years, and introducing us to The Hiring Suite.

"Hats off to Hiring Suite for making good use of the
Internet technology, which makes better use of my time!”
Testing an applicant using the Internet Web site
is very convenient and easy to set up. It's an efficient way to administer the
test, particularly to those candidates who are being interviewed off site.
But the real bonus is having the results automatically scored and sent
to us via e-mail. Today I had to manually score a test -- the first in a long
time -- and I really appreciated the difference. My biggest concern about
manual scoring has been the risk of making a wrong entry; the Web site scoring
eliminates any room for human error.
Hats off to Hiring Suite for
making good use of the Internet technology, which in turns makes better use of
my time!

"Maryanne has helped me interpret some unusual profiles that
I didn't understand. I wish all vendors were as attentive.”
I'm staffing a large sales force and we test
for motivation, behavior and sales skills before all hires. The Managing For
Success tests are very valuable for determining underlying characteristics
which don't always come out in the interview. They've also made me a much
better interviewer because I know what to look for.
More often than
not, the profiles are used to help detect areas for improvement and to align
the new hires with their best attributes. For example, it allows us to know in
advance whether the candidate will be a better hunter or farmer, both extremely
important roles for our growing business.
And working with Hiring
Solutions has been great; I get a .pdf file of the results within seconds of
the test being completed. And Maryanne has helped me interpret some unusual
profiles that I didn't understand; I wish all vendors were as attentive.
Thanks for providing such a valuable service for our most important
critical success factor….Hiring great people.

"We found the results to be very accurate and useful for
coaching and performance reviews.”
We
are very happy with the results we've gotten from using your software.
We recently launched a recruiting campaign to hire construction
workers. We had 197 responses to our ad and, in order to find the best 15
candidates, we used the Hiring Suite to help us make our decisions. We
administered Insure Survey and Johnston Index to approximately 30 candidates
and found the results to be informative and accurate (as far as we can tell so
far).
Further, we have used the Personality Plus (in addition to the
other two) on our Field Superintendents. We found the results to be very
accurate and useful for coaching and performance reviews.
Overall, the
software is a very useful tool to help screen potential hires and use as aid
for improving current employees.
