Today,
employers are increasingly turning to assessments, no longer can
a company take an applicant at face value. For employers,
assessments are a necessity.
Using Assessments
Are Cost-Effective
With the cost of hiring a new employee averaging over three
thousand dollars ($3,000), a bad hire can mean an estimated loss
to companies of approximately $40,000 in severance pay,
training, wasted human resources time, possible search firm
fees, loss of productivity, and impact on employee morale. The
expense of a bad hire far outweighs the cost of a background
check. As with insurance,
each employer must decide the level of protection they seek.
Usually, the average cost of an assessment is equivalent to the
cost of a new employee's first day of work or less.
Genesis Assessments

predictive and objective data on how an employee will perform

Why use assessments in business?
An
indisputable fact is that people prefer to interact with
people they like. The ability to create rapport with people
is a fundamental skill in sales, management, personal
relationships, and everyday life.
Studies show that proper job fit and employee assimilation
within a companies culture, improves engagement and
job-satisfaction resulting in increased productivity.
Negative factors such as stress, tension, conflict and
costly employee turnover diminish. This situation is more
common than you might think, but imagine if you could
predict results before they happen. Think of the long-term
visibility you could gain by predicting who will become a
top performer — even before they are hired.

candidates!

Unemployment is
going up and for the first time in a very long time
companies will have a larger hiring pool to choose from.
This is actually a bright side to the companies who are
slashing budgets from every department. This is PRIME
Time to recruit and hire more qualified employees.
As a company, don’t
be so excited to hire the first “best in a while" that
applies or interview’s well. Citibank, GM, Major
Retailers are laying off a lot of very qualified people
and now it’s up to you to separate the wheat from the
shaft when they want or are forced to look for a new
company to nestle into for the next 3 months to 10
years.
Industry experts
strongly suggest the use of assessments within your
company. Assessments such as the
PXT or the
PPI can give you a
clear view how a potential employee will adapt to your
companies culture and give great insight into what makes
a person tick and what is the likelihood they will stick
around and produce for you.
