Recruiters Can Find "Better Fit'' Candidates Fast ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 15, 2001-- In addition to conventional word of mouth referrals, executive recruiters now can use a "word of mouse'' e-recruiting solution with a new online personality assessment and interview system announced by Fitability Systems today.
Designed for both executive recruiter firms and individual recruiters, Fitability's new, recruiting tool, Fitability for Recruiters, was designed to offer recruiters a competitive edge to land national accounts. Recruiters can use the system with no "up front'' fees, no software licenses to buy, and no training required. Recruiters pay only per-use and can use the system for as low as $20 per interview.
"When candidates fit, clients commit,'' said James R. Campbell, chairman and CEO of Fitability Systems. "Recruiters will find Fitability to be the differentiator that helps them land national accounts and assess candidates faster than the competition.''
Although the assessment only takes a candidate 15 minutes to complete, recruiters can know their candidate's natural behavior patterns within 5-8 minutes via an easy to read report in full compliance with EEOC guidelines. Recruiter's clients can learn as much about an applicant in this time as it would normally take to observe the individual's behavior over 5-8 weeks.
One of the industry's biggest challenges is hiring the right people who "fit'' the job, eliminating the need to search for a replacement in the future. Fitability for Recruiters is a fast, reliable online interview and assessment system that helps recruiters attract, evaluate, track and place "best-fit'' candidates. Fitability saves time by providing a pre-screening tool to "interview'' candidates online prior to a telephone or face-to-face interview.
The system provides career-related information about an individual's personality and then compares it to specific job profiles. Based on the most reliable model of personality in the world--the "Big Five,'' Fitability supplies these tools to help search firms make the best decisions.
Using the power of technology to streamline the assessment and interviewing process, Fitability's automated Web-based software is the only online personality assessment program that provides 750 job positions and benchmarks. In addition, Fitability for Recruiters offers a candidate management system that offers each recruiter access and control over candidate information from any computer. Online interview components allow recruiters to learn more about their candidates prior to the first interview, engage good candidates faster and place better-fit employees. Recruiters can also create custom interview questions or select from existing ones.
Fitability for Recruiters saves time and expenses for recruiters by reducing resume-reading time, accelerating candidate communication and speeds hiring time. It assists in predicting a candidate's job performance and satisfaction--factors that lead to greater productivity and lower turnover. Fitability for Recruiters features:
-- Automated E-Mail Notification that directs candidates to the Fitability Online Interview and informs recruiters when interviews are completed
-- Detailed Candidate Reports that provide insight on the individual's personal effectiveness and interpersonal communication. As soon as the candidate completes the online interview, the following reports are available:
-- Personal Profile Report showing the individual's scores and score interpretation
-- Job Fit Report that compares the individual's profile with your selected job profiles
-- Online Interview Report, which shows the individual's online responses to your questions
-- Development Report that supplies insights on the individual's personal effectiveness and interpersonal communication
-- A Library of 750 Job Profiles based on five years of research and 130,000 participants provides recruiters with quick access to job descriptions and requirements for skills, experience, training, education and more for most administrative, labor, management and professional positions. This allows recruiters to compare candidates to a specific job position and gain insights into their strengths and challenges.
-- Resume, Income History and Notes for each candidate allow recruiters to track thousands of candidates with sorting capabilities providing easy access to the top prospects.
"These validated behavioral assessment tools offer a rapid way to develop an extremely accurate picture of the real person,'' said Campbell. Although the assessment only takes a candidate 15 minutes to complete, recruiters can know their candidate's natural behavior patterns within 5-8 minutes via an easy to read report in full compliance with EEOC guidelines. Recruiter's clients can learn as much about an applicant in this time as it would normally take to observe the individual's behavior over 5-8 weeks.
