Why does someone believe you

Hiring is a process, not a one-time event! |
 |
How did this happen?
- Her resume was impressive,
- She nailed the interview, and
- Her manager thinks the world of her …
But …
- Her co-workers despise her and
- Her customers avoid her.
In our work with organizations we see this problem over and
over. The job candidate had an
impressive resume, absolutely nails the interview, and then three months later
their “evil twin” shows up for work. In
some cases, like the individual above, their manager only sees what the person
wants them to see; but, for the rest of the team and their customers, there is
a whole different image. So, how does
this happen? We don’t have a
well-designed hiring process. | |  | |  |
For those who call or email,
we’ll provide complementary Genos Emotional Intelligence Selection assessment
in combination with a PXT Select assessment for use with your next job
candidate. Looking forward to hearing
from you. |
