- Introduce testing to help managers make better choices.
Managers can predict with great accuracy, how both new and existing employees will perform in certain job roles. Research shows the accuracy of the three predictive tools when making decisions about people. When combined, (layered), the probability of correct hiring decisions is increased to over 80%.
-
| Testing for ability | 53% most accurate |
| Testing for personality | 38% |
| Reference checking | 26% |
| Interviewing | 14% least accurate |
Source: These numbers may vary between researchers but interviewing tends to remain the least effective predictive tool while testing, in its varied forms, tends to be the most accurate predictor of future performance. These numbers above were taken from the book "Hire the Best" by M. Mercer PH.D. He shows them as being taken from five different research sources.
- Use structured, role defined, interview techniques.
- Use structured reference checking with past employers as well as personal references.
- Start verifying past employment dates, roles, education and designations.
By using the right tools, you can predict with 80%+ accuracy how people are going to perform, before you make hiring decisions. Allow us to help you get these four systems working in your organization.
Why successful companies use testing.
- Testing is three times more accurate at predicting employee performance, than interviews.
Testing is the most accurate way of predicting whether new hires will be effective or not.
- Testing reveals character and temperament.
Testing uncovers character, the human side of the candidate. Candidates may have the experience and credentials to do the work, but work ethic, traits, and behaviours, are more important to job success. Testing tells you if the person 'will' do the work over the long term.
- Testing allows cloning of your top performers.
Use testing to measure candidates against the ideal job profile of your most successful employees. Hire more of your best.
- Testing predicts leadership potential.
Can this person lead others, and will they follow? Apply to existing employees as well as new hires.
- Testing determines culture fit.
Testing tells you whether candidates will fit into your culture. Whether they well work as part of your team.
- Adding testing can make your hiring decisions to over 80+% accurate.
Testing, when combined with interviews and reference checking increases the probability of hiring correctly up to 80%.
- Without testing, your chances of hiring correctly drop to below 42%.
Interviewing, combined with reference checking, (not including testing), takes your chance of hiring correctly down to 42%.
- Testing standardizes company hiring procedures.
Where department managers are making their own hiring decisions, testing unifies hiring standards at a higher, more uniform level for your entire company.
