A national financial services company succeeded in improving hiring accuracy for a key revenue generating position from slightly better than 50% to more than 88%.

Read more about these results below.

Client Company: Large, nationally-situated financial services organization

Challenge:
Improve performance levels in a Relationship Manager position; establish a system to screen-out under-performers and screen-in individuals capable of consistently meeting company performance targets.

Solution:
PHD created company-specific performance benchmarks that identified unique sets of competencies associated with top, average and low performing Relationship Managers. The accuracy of the customized performance models was then validated after running a series of 'blind' hiring simulations. The hiring benchmarks were specifically designed to screen-in those who possessed the necessary competencies associated with high performance in the position and screen-out those whose competencies ranked in the average or low performer range.


Procedure:
Data collected from the organization's existing Relationship Manager workforce were used to create the customized performance benchmarks. Relationship Manager's were only required to complete a brief 10 minute online survey that measures a range of important competencies. Once collected, the employee competency data were evaluated along with actual performance data for three key performance criteria. The analysis, and subsequent performance benchmarks, very clearly identified the competencies that would be needed for high performance as well as those associated with less desirable levels of performance. Individuals applying for Relationship Manager positions within this organization simply complete the 10 minute survey and their suitability is determined instantly for the company hiring managers.


Results:
Use of PHD benchmarks has required no dramatic change to their hiring procedures. They have simply added the 10 minute competency surveys as an additional step in the hiring process.

When the customized performance benchmarks were included in the hiring process, the following results were obtained::
