Putting Entry-Level Workers to the Test

The greatest turnover is often found at the lowest levels of employment, yet many companies accept it as standard operating procedure. An obvious reason for blue-collar turnover is the lack of screening. Citing time and expense, most employers hesitate to use assessment tools for this level of employment, yet it has been proven that job-fit assessments can reduce turnover, improve crew stability, and increase productivity.

Even at the entry-level of general labor, the employer is still looking for certain traits and attitudes, yet they often hire the first person that walks in the door, without regard to the individuals work habits, energy level, loyalty, or attitude toward authority. All that and more can be determined by a simple 20-minute assessment called the Scoreboard.

Our industrial database includes a wide variety of hiring benchmarks for entry-level positions in multiple industries and job types. Comparing your candidates to these fully validated patterns, you can quickly and accurately determine the right hire, and stop making the wrong hire. Keep in mind, according to the DOL, the cost of turning over one hourly person ranges from $3K - $10K.

The Scoreboard is very easy and quick to administer. Available in booklet format, with no timed sections, it can be administered anywhere. It can also be administered online.

Admissions Sections
The Scoreboard is also available with the Admissions Section. The Admissions Section ensures that all legally allowed questions are asked, concerning current drug or alcohol use, and recent acts of theft. Designed with non-inferential, direct admissions questions that do not discriminate, this section helps to safeguard the employer against third party injury suits.
