Having the wrong person in the wrong job is bad news for anyone. Poor job fit leads to employee dissatisfaction and under performance, while companies foot the bill to hire and train these employees who don't contribute or even detract from company success.
We believe that everyone has potential to do great things, but that potential can only be realized when a person's unique strengths and abilities are a match with his or her job.
We're on a mission to help companies get the "right people" into the "right jobs" better than ever before. By utilizing the latest advances in predictive analytics, psychometric assessments, and machine learning algorithms, we can improve the accuracy of hiring and get more people in jobs where they will thrive. Join us as we discuss tools, tips, and techniques for using your company's data to improve your hiring outcomes.
If we can put a man on the moon and instantly communicate with someone on the other side of the world, why can't we select the right person for a job? Despite advancements in many fields like technology and medicine, we still struggle to make accurate hiring decisions.
These numbers are staggering and the implications are even greater. Hiring the wrong employee is estimated to cost a company up to 200% of that employee's first year salary. Not only is hiring the wrong person expensive, poor job fit trickles into every part of the organization through low morale, poor culture, team conflict and more. Why is it that we can only get it right 19% of the time? And how do we make it better?
We exist to solve this problem by helping companies know who to hire.
