Candidate Assessment
Why do we recommend only 63% of the candidates we assess? Why do only 36% receive an enthusiastic recommendation? Why are 20% potential disasters?
Many candidates look great on paper, but are either under-powered, mismatched to the position or have significant rough edges that must be compensated. Even savvy equity firms and boards succeed only half the time they select key executives. A wrong hire can cost you up to $100,000. This can exceed $1m for an underperforming C-level executive.
We can help you succeed over 90% of the time in your hiring and promotion decisions. We specialize in director, VP and C-level candidates, using state-of-the-art simulation, testing and interview methods. Our unique InBox simulations are highly predictive of strategic, execution and leadership skills. Our psychologists are seasoned, each with over 15 years experience in vetting top executives.
