PI HIRE

 

The Hire module is a powerful tool for utilizing people data to make educated decisions and drastically reduce your time to hire. Combining behavioral and cognitive results with behavioral job targets for your roles allows you to prioritize your list of candidates based on a match score. But when should Hire be introduced into your hiring process?

 

It's decision making time!

When should you send out assessments?

Where you implement Hire in your process will depend on a number of factors:

  • Some clients choose to implement Hire and send out the assessments early in their process.
    • Pro: the ability to prioritize your candidate list early on, focusing on candidates who are behaviorally driven to do the work you need from them and then honing in on experience and values through interviews
    • Con: possible delays in your process - it may take a few emails to get a candidate to complete the assessment before they are able to move forward in the process
  • Alternately, some clients push the assessment process further into their hiring, with candidates taking the assessment after later interviews.
    • Pro: you have built a stronger relationship with this candidate and they’ll be more likely to complete the assessment in a timely manner
    • Con: you may have spent a large amount of time courting a candidate who ends up not being a good behavioral fit for the role
Pro Tip: Behavioral data is a single data point to be used in your hiring process. It should never be considered a cut score or the sole reason not to hire someone.

Now that we have the job target set and we’ve associated people to the job, we’ve unlocked a cadre of reports and information!  

Hire Tools

If you also have the Inspire module, associating a person to a job also unlocks a coaching guide, which provides recommended questions for helping managers identify potential behavioral misalignment with the role and help facilitate conversations and coach employees to not only be aware of potential gaps but also determine solutions. We’ll discuss this more in our Inspire training. That's all for Hire - congrats on powering up your hiring process!
