There is an almost universal reliance on generic job descriptions that are too often focused on WHAT an employee does and HOW they do it. This leads to Applicant Tracking Systems’ serving up too many generic, misaligned candidates that require unnecessary staff time to sift through, and candidate pools that underwhelm hiring managers. This also likely supports why 80% of employee turnover is due to poor hiring decisions and unclear performance objectives (source: Harvard Business School).
The antidote to this process is our proprietary tool that we utilize to guide hiring managers to
better define the outcomes/KPIs required for a particular role and the competencies and
attributes that drive them. Helping hiring managers achieve hi-definition clarity on what a top
performer truly looks like is how we built our reputation for attracting, aligning, and recruiting
exceptional candidates.
