I wish I had known
Our economy appears to be recovering in several sectors such that companies are once again looking at sales hiring. One of the most frequent CRO comments we have heard when assessing their existing sales team during the recession was, “I wish I had known that before we hired him (or her).” That comment is usually followed by – “he/she interviewed so well and seemed to know so many companies in our industry.”
The web-based assessment tools available today take less than an hour to complete and give you more upfront profile information about the applicant than most managers can learn in a year about their new hires. The web-based assessment tools can objectively sort talent from wannabe’s so you don’t have to revisit those “I wish I had know that before….” discoveries after they are on your payroll and not performing. Thanks to these tools you don’t have to keep making those same repetitive mistakes today.
