While there are many recruiters out there in the marketplace today, many of them are only interested in filling a job for their client. Whether the candidate is a solid fit for their client is not necessarily their concern. At team discovery, this is our only concern. We understand that the team you are creating can be the most important aspect of building a successful business. Team Discovery has a unique and time tested process for finding the best match for our clients and candidates alike.
At team discovery, we believe in creating the “perfect fit” situation for both our clients and our candidates. To truly insure the best possible hires, we employ the latest and most effective assessment tools in the industry. These assessments allow us to test our clients and candidates on their values, behaviors and skills to match them together or move them away from each other before a bad hiring decision is made. While these assessments are only a part of the decision on a new hire, they allow us to make efficient use of our client’s valuable time.
Assessments Utilized
Work Environment: Prior to beginning our search, we believe in investing time in our new clients. One of the key elements in understanding our new client relates directly to the behaviors of the job looking to be filled. A work environment assessment is one of the best new ways to truly understand the position and who will be the best fit for it. Our team works directly with our clients to assess the behaviors of each job to insure that we can properly match each candidate to the right job, every time.
DISC/Behaviors: talent is a combination of many factors, one of which is behavior. Team discovery provides DISC testing for all of your candidates, prior to your meeting them. If they match the behavior of the job, they are eligible to continue through our hiring process. If not, there may be enough evidence to determine the candidate is not a good fit for a career at your organization. By assessing a candidate’s behavior, we have the ability to improve interviewing and evaluating our candidates for our clients.
Values/Motivators: What motivates employees to sell, manage, service or connect with customers the way they do? What prompts an employee’s enthusiastic response-a happy customer, a big sale, a tough problem solved? The answers to these questions are all based on values. Values are the drivers behind our behaviors; what motivates our actions. Understanding your candidate’s values and how they relate to the job and culture can be critical to the long term success of the candidate in his/her new position.
Salespeople: Imagine hiring salespeople that can produce the way that they said they could. Sales Skills index presents questions that portray “real life” sales situations. By comparing your candidate's answers against top sales professionals, we are able to see if they can bring in the business for you. Sales Skills covers seven different steps in the sales process including: prospecting, first impressions, qualifying, demonstration, influence, closing and general sales. By understanding where the strength and weaknesses of each candidate we help our clients to avoid some of the hiring mistakes made in the past.
Team Evaluations: Your team is your most valuable asset. It may only take one weak link to effect the entire company. In order to better understand your team’s strengths and weaknesses, we offer a complete evaluation of your team. This includes interviewing key players, assessing their behaviors and motivators and testing skill levels. Once the evaluation is completed, we provide a thorough written evaluation which outlines the internal issues and provides suggestions for improvements moving forward.
