- Ninety-five of 100 applicants will "exaggerate" to get a job

- Turnover costs thousands of dollars for every departing employee
- Eighty percent of employee turnover is avoidable
Assessments Offer a Solution
Employers typically depend upon résumés, references and interviews as sources of information for making hiring decisions. These sources have proved inadequate for consistently selecting good employees. When training employees, a "one size fits all" approach has failed to provide the desired results. When selecting people for promotion, otherwise excellent employees have too often been miscast into roles they could not perform satisfactorily.
Clearly, an essential ingredient for making "people decisions" has been missing from the formula. The use of assessments has become essential to employers who want to put the right people into jobs, provide employees with effective training, help their managers to become more effective, and promote people into positions where they will succeed.
Why Use Profiles International for Your Assessment Testing?
Recognized as the fastest-growing employment assessment testing firm in the world, Profiles International offers a full range of assessment products, and has worked side-by-side with LGMDA to develop an industry-specific tool for LGMDA members. In addition, LGMDA members enjoy significant discounts on all Profiles International services and products.
