Selection SuccessGuiding Principles
![Page 12: Stopping The Revolving Door - Employment Assessments · •John E.

Four Principles
People fail because of the existence of negatives, not a lack of positives
The candidate’s intention is get the job, not help you hire the right person
Turnover and reduced productivity are an unseen tax on your profits
It’s better to wait for the right person than to hire the best available person
![Page 13: Stopping The Revolving Door - Employment Assessments · •John E.

Education
• A cut off criteria• A minimum amount may be required
• More won’t necessarily give better results
• Can be a cause of failure but is not a strong indicator of success
• Just because someone has education it doesn’t mean that they will use it to get outstanding results
• Can be obtained if necessary

Training
• The specifics of how to do a job
• May or may not be easy to acquire
![Page 27: Stopping The Revolving Door - Employment Assessments · •John E.

Interview
• Experienced, behaviorally-based interviewers can get results close to 50%
• Not many interviewers have that level of proficiency
• Requires training, practice, continuous use
• Filtered by subjective bias• Getting everyone to see and evaluate each candidate in the same way
• Quantifying the results of an interview can be difficult
![Page 28: Stopping The Revolving Door - Employment Assessments · •John E. Hunter & Rhonda Hunter, “Validity and Utility of Alternative Predictors of Job Performance”, Psychological Bulletin,](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042312/5edb6497ad6a402d666597c0/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Experience
• Experience must be directly relevant
• The more relevant, the higher the correlation• High end condo sales in NY vs. general real estate sales experience
• Relevance can be impacted by culture
![Page 29: Stopping The Revolving Door - Employment Assessments · •John E. Hunter & Rhonda Hunter, “Validity and Utility of Alternative Predictors of Job Performance”, Psychological Bulletin,](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042312/5edb6497ad6a402d666597c0/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
References
• 60% of companies won’t provide references
• Social media is the new frontier• 73% of recruiters now check social media
• Candidates are becoming more careful
• Bad reference or background check becomes 100% decision factor

Behaviors
• Behavior is not the same as personality• Personality is situational
• Behavior is who you are
• Different personalities can do the same job
• DISC and MBTI are personality tools
![Page 31: Stopping The Revolving Door - Employment Assessments · •John E.

Cognitive
• How they learn and process data
• Verbal and analytical abilities are more relevant than kinesthetic and spatial
• Difficult to measure in an interview
• Ask candidate to solve real job related problems

A Word About Cost…
• Between $20 and $200
• Use 3 or 4 per hire = $800 / hire max
• What is the cost of a bad hire?
• How much more productive and trouble free is a top performer?
• No assessment will prevent all bad hires
• Even a modest reduction in turnover can be very profitable
