The Hiring Process is Broken

Most people understand that if you keep doing the same thing over and over, the results are not going to improve. Yet, when it comes to hiring and releasing employees, this is exactly what most companies do within their hiring process.

Many companies believe that conducting better interviews is the solution. However, an extensive University of Michigan study concluded that changing the interview process only increases the likelihood of choosing the best candidate by less than 2%.

Other companies search for the perfect resume, even though a leading temporary staffing firm found that nearly 33% of all job applicants either lie or omit important information on resumes and applications.

Some companies will create arbitrary or unnecessary education and experience requirements to reduce the number of applicants. These companies risk passing over some of the best and more reasonably priced candidates.

Personality Tests Are Too Subjective

Finally, some companies administer widely-used and popular personality tests, like the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator ® (MBTI ®). Even though these personality tests have been widely discredited as personnel selection tools due to their subjective and "self-evaluative" nature, companies continue to try personality tests. But their efforts are not producing results or improvements in their hiring process.
