Kismet Consulting | Services - Hire Strategically

Reduce turnover and increase employee productivity

Kismet uses validated assessments and data driven strategies to help you identify and attract best-fit employees. We collaborate with you to create a consistent process from the time a person reads a job advertisement to the day they begin their new role and beyond.

Step I: “Benchmark” the job to determine exactly what the job requires. This means strongly defining the job at hand using objective data vs. subjective opinion. We work with you to “let the job speak.”
Step II: Candidates take an online assessment so we can compare the candidates’ profiles with the benchmark.
Step III: Identify potential red flags by analyzing the gap between the candidate and the benchmark. Then, generate specific interview questions to address red flags.
Step IV: Use the new data generated by the assessments in conjunction with other information gathered about the candidate to make a balanced decision about hiring.

The benchmarking process targets top talent using data gathered through validated instruments. These instruments hone in on the ideal behaviors and attitudes necessary to be successful in the job. Candidates with matching profiles to the benchmark will consistently become your top performers.

FYI:

Recent research shows that a bad hire can cost as much as 10 times the employee’s annual salary

Bureau of Labor Statistics reports the 66% of people working in American companies are unengaged (not working for companies’ goals and objectives) or disengaged (actively working against companies’ goals and objectives)

Benchmarking jobs and hiring best-fit employees can reduce turnover and increase productivity & job satisfaction
