Let's hear what our clients say about JOBehaviors!
|
JOBehaviors is identifying drivers with the work ethic and people skills needed
in our industry. The higher scoring candidates are much more upbeat and positive.
In addition, the drivers we have hired with the JOBehaviors assessments have had
no preventable accidents. We are quite satisfied with your product and service.

In 2008, Governor Mike Beebe announced an initiative to train displaced workers
and other eligible Arkansans to qualify as truck drivers (www.TruckingArkansas.com).
The goal of the program was to identify outstanding driver candidates who would
be a good fit for the job and stay in the industry.
Our program is still on-going. To date we’ve assessed nearly 1,000 candidates with
the JOBehaviors assessment. My staff and I have been very pleased with the flow
of information and communication with your staff. The administration of the system
and retrieving assessments has been executed with ease.
Your aptitude assessments have yielded great candidates. Our director of training
recently stated that students enrolling through our program "were a cut above the
rest of the industry."
On a personal note, I wanted to let you know how much we appreciate JOBehaviors,
and your dedication to customer support. Thank you for your contribution to the
success of this program.

ITI teamed with JOBehaviors on a Federal Grant to hire truck drivers. Of those drivers
who scored high on the JOBehaviors screening test over 75% were still employed in
the industry over one year later. Their screening assessment tool is well constructed
and normalized over a very large database. This is a unique and excellent product.

Just a quick note to let you know that during a meeting last week with the Arkansas
Trucking Association and the two training institutions that are implementing Arkansas'
Truck Driver Training - Pilot Initiative, the school's training coordinators commented
that the students we are sending them are "like night and day" compared to the folks
that they typically see come through their programs. One gentleman commented that
our trainees are the "type of people you'd want to invite home for dinner". The
schools feel that this is a direct result of the JOBehaviors assessment being used
as a qualifier for the program.

Since we started using the JOBehaviors assessment tool as part of our qualifying
process, we have seen a significant improvement in the quality of employees that
we are placing with our clients. Our staffing specialists report a reduction in
"call-outs" and "walk-offs". And our clients report that they have noticed a marked
improvement in the reliability, productivity, and attitude of our employees. In
fact, when comparing our employees to the competition, 70% of our clients rate the
quality of our employees "above average". In the world of light industrial staffing,
having better quality means less recruiting costs for us and less training and development
costs for our clients. With this tool we have found that our people "stick", we
feel that we have a method to break the "revolving door of temporary workers". This
tool, coupled with our system of service, has really set us apart.

Hi Mark,
I have wanted to write you a letter for some time to thank you and let you know
what a great assessment tool you provide. The "proper" use of your assessment
tool had significant impact in so many ways to improve the operation of our three
Tutor Time Child Care Learning Centers.
Your very thorough explanation of the tool and how to implement it was very critical
in rolling out the program. My understanding of the tool enabled me to sit down
with all of our Administrators to explain how it works, what the benefits are and
determine a procedure for implementation. We decided that the maximum benefit of
the tool is to have any candidate who calls or walks in the school to go on-line
and take the assessment as the first step. Only those applicants who received three
stars or higher were brought in for interviews. This was a tremendous savings of
time for our Administrators who no longer had to interview every applicant, even
as a courtesy. It also prevented the Administrators from hiring an applicant based
upon their personality or just giving the right answers in the interview. It is
no secret that Child Care Administrators are not highly trained or skilled at behavioral
interviewing and probing techniques. This tool took that subjectivity out of the
hiring process.
Not only did this reduce the number of candidates to be interviewed to find one
good candidate, but in the long run produced far better employees. This of course
reduced the turnover significantly of those hired from the use of the tool, improved
the morale of parents, staff and children based upon teacher stability, all of which
led to a more efficient operation with a higher profit margin, enabling us to pay
our staff more and provide greater benefits, including an increase in the 401K matching
program.
I cannot say enough positive things about your assessment tool. I will not hesitate
to use it again in our next business operation and to recommend it highly to anyone
who is seriously interested in improving their business operation in efficiency,
effectiveness and profitability.
Thank you again for all your help in working with us to use this tool properly.
Regards,
Jonathan Abelove

JOBehaviors provides the best job-specific compatibility assessments I've seen in
nearly twenty five years in post-secondary education. One of the great challenges
we face in vocational education is making sure our students are a strong match for
job training. We want to make sure our students not only graduate, but go on to
achieve rewarding careers in their chosen field. JOBehaviors assessments provide
invaluable insight to both people searching for their best career choice, and to
the schools and employers providing training and jobs.
In addition, JOBehaviors helped our recruiters focus their time, energy, and resources
on outstanding candidates who actually gave us permission to reach out to them.
This led to a 29% increase in enrollment and improved the education experience for
all of our students.

Dear Mark,
Thank you for the excellent tools that you have allowed us to use over the past
year. Our interview process has been a more positive experience. Not only are we
more consistent but we have a great tool to help us to be objective in choosing
who to have continue in the interview process. The online test is easy and effective
and very thorough. The evaluation portion keeps on track and insures fairness.
As a small business having the access to the survey, inter view questions, and the
evaluation questions have saved us time and kept us unified as a management team.
We hired a new Director recently. We used the director survey and interview questions
as well as the evaluation questions at 30, 60, and 90 days. There is no question
that this saved us time and in the long run money because we were able to think
clearly and find better candidates resulting in a good hire.
It will be easy for me to recommend Job Behaviors to others in the industry simply
because it makes our job so much simpler and gives us greater effectiveness.
Thank you,
David A Schwartz

Hi Mark,
Thank you for the opportunity to share our experience with JOBehaviors. Our
first use of the JBI product was approximately 3 years ago. We had an emerging
need in our Philippines operation to rapidly assess our management team and to develop
better hiring practices for key positions. JBI created a custom solution for
us based on your "standard" operating platform that not only met our needs but completely
exceeded our expectations. The system worked flawlessly and we literally experienced
no downtime or operational challenges related to the system or process.
Since that initial engagement we have used the assessment platform in several instances
on several continents and in all cases the system and reporting tools worked to
our total satisfaction.
I would highly recommend your tools and processes to anyone seeking a reliable delivery
system that offers flexibility, swift results, and multiple customization options.
If any of your clients would like more specific information please do not hesitate
to have them contact me via email and/or at the U.S. phone number listed below.
Sincerely,
