Vita | Simplified Recruitment - Reference Assessment

Traditional Screening processes lead to company-making hires being left out

Resume Based screening

A document filled with unverified, self-declared information, with up to 70% inaccuracies, doesn't make for a great screening tool.

Short term recruitment

Recruitment with no qualitative information taken, until the end of the recruitment process, contains no information about how the candidate would perform in the role, and the company.

Pre-Hire Assessment

All forms of pre-hiring assessment, have the candidate on their best behaviour, thinking "How would I like to be seen by the employer". It's how they think they would behave, ideally. This is seldom how they perform over a long time-line.

Frequently Asked Questions

So, basically, a LinkedIn Testimonial?

LinkedIn Testimonials are unstructured, usually containing very similar information. But most importantly, public. By allowing the candidate to see this information, the objectivity of the assessment is lost. Recruiters tell us these are worth close to nothing in their eyes, as nobody would write a critical assessment of someone, when they know they'll be seeing it. The same applies to letters of recommendation.

References are not a decision-making tool because people only refer their friends.

Reference checks, suffer from the age-old stigma of being a check-box process, to verify employment history and make sure the candidates aren't bad apples. However, a structured assessment of the applicants' strengths and weaknesses, can allow us to sort through the crowd, and hire the best fit for the job and company.
Developed in consultation with I/O Psychologists to deliver a structured assessment to identify qualities in an individual.

Why not pre-employment assessments?

Pre-employment assessments generally have the candidates on their best behaviour, thinking of the best way to react. In short, what they aspire to be. The same applies to case scenario's. But that optimal self, isn't how the candidate usually behaves.
For a true view? Find out from the one person who's seen them in action for several years. Their ex-bosses, and people they've worked with.

I usually judge a person's qualities and soft skills during the interview. How is this better?

Absolutely. Your recruitment processes have evolved and are specific to your company. You know best how to find the right fit for your company. What we do, is enable you to make better shortlisting decisions by providing you with additional information before you ever start interviewing. Companies that use us, say their interviews are significantly better, enabling them to find the most suitable people.
