In the world of retail, simply gathering a pool of candidates isn't usually an issue; in fact, for most retailers, their recruiting challenges are focused on how to properly screen a large volume of candidates. With existing technology, it is possible to screen the entire talent pool for fit and top performance in a rapid, systemic and automated way through the use of online assessments.
Using the right assessments early in the process can prevent time spent on interviews that don't lead to hires. Plus, an effective assessment program will help you hire the right people...right from the start. Forging better assessment programs and interviewing techniques allows organizations to focus on the people that will increase performance and reduce turnover. Other companies are facing similar challenges, but are able to see impacts from their assessment program that help them address those challenges up front.
