We recently helped a company hire a Sales Person for a remote position in NY/Southern CT (Home office in MA). We followed every step of the Perfect Hire Blueprint process and hired an enthusiastic, experiences sales person near the budgeted compensation level just 43 days from posting the first ad.
We took most of the load off of the employer: We posted the ad, we collected the resumes, we screened the candidates, we did the initial phone screens, and we passed along those who were qualified to be interviewed. What may be surprising is the efficiency in which it was done.
We had 44 total candidates. We interviewed 3, and administered a behavioral assessment on the most qualified. A total of ~5 hours were used for interviewing by the employer. One applicant was a perfect fit. Unlike when a headhunter is used, we highlighted the candidates’ weaknesses rather than trying to sell “our candidate.” What might also be surprising is that the job postings cost less than $150 total.
Many companies hate the thought of the effort and expense of hiring. In this case, expense and time for the employer could be described as efficient. This is not atypical when using the complete process.
