What Our Clients Have to Say

Reducing Turnover
“Our cost per hire has been reduced by 25 percent and our turnover in the year after using Select International’s system is the lowest it has ever been. We processed 11,000 applications for 5,235 jobs in a 6-month period. That would have been impossible with our old system.”

Global Success
“Select International is a specialized partner that we relied on daily when we were hiring our new workforce for our start-up in Monterrey, Mexico. Because of the success we had in Monterrey, we implemented the system at our Springfield, Ohio, location that presently employs over 5,000 people.”
Luis Buchanan

Sales Hiring Around the World
“The Select Assessment has become an important part of our selection process for new sales hires in our offices around the world. The data has helped us to more effectively and objectively identify candidate strengths and weaknesses that did not come out in our normal interview process. And the quantitative nature of the results allowed us to set cut-off points eliminating some candidates that we now know will not be successful. High-scoring candidates have proven to be highly successful sales people for us. Thanks for creating a selection tool that works!"
Juan F. Gutierrez, President & CEO
FTR/Omega Performance

Best in Leadership Assessment
“I needed an assessment for our emerging managers group. Because the members of this group hold very different jobs with varying levels of responsibility, I was concerned about using a benchmark to measure effectiveness. Select International was able to quickly address that issue and provide my company with an affordable assessment that was easy to access, easy to complete, and easy to interpret. The emerging managers walked away with great information to help them develop their managerial and leadership skills.”
Tracey Richardson, SPHR Organizational Development Manager
AAA Carolinas

“We use the Select Assessment for Leadership Development and find that the results are accurate and reflective of performance on the job. The process of assessments, candid developmental discussions, and action plans targeted to the individuals has positively impacted individuals has positively impacted individual growth and success.”
Carol Takacs, Director of HR

“Select International's approach to identifying the specific competencies that truly make a difference in each target position, coupled with behaviorally anchored rating statements, makes our new Performance Evaluation and Improvement Program extremely effective.

Managers and employees alike appreciate that this is not just another generic off-the-shelf program but, rather, something that very specifically measures what is important in their jobs."
Dennis B. Harr, Division Human Resources Manager
Kennametal Inc.

Breakthroughs in Applicant Reporting

It saves us valuable time and allows us to process our candidates with ease. We can make same-day hiring decisions thanks to the automatic scoring feature in SelecTrak.

“British Telecom has worked with Select International for three years now, and we have found the Select International tools to be very accurate and a strong predictor of staff performance. In fact, I would go so far as to say that Select International’s tools are a ‘no brainer’ and should be utilized by any company interested in hiring the right people, improving existing employee performance, and driving customer satisfaction.
Chris Roberts, General Manager
British Telecom

The Start-Up Experts
“I'd been through three start-ups with this company, and I thought we had a pretty good process. Select International's experience with start-ups enabled us to take a good process and make it even better. It gave us structure and challenged us to consider the importance and impact of aligning people systems like staffing, work design, and compensation."

Large Volume Hiring
“The candidates we've hired using Select International's system not only meet our technical skill requirements, but also have the desire and energy that so few candidates have. Select International's technology enabled us to effectively process over 14,000 applications in 4 months. Their staff is flexible, sensitive to the unique needs of a client, able to respond quickly to changing circumstances, and—most importantly—available when you need them!"
Merrill Millard, Manager of Human Resources
AK Steel

Consistency in 130 Locations
“PPG Auto Glass operates over 130 branches across the country. Without the EZ App system and Select International screening interview, each supervisor could have potentially used different criteria when selecting individuals for the same position. Since implementing the new screening program, we are now able to ensure that all candidates meet the same basic criterion levels, regardless of where they work. It enables the supervisor to select the best of the best without getting bogged down in preliminary interviews.

The Select International team's experience base was critical to our success in identifying and selecting relevant criteria. The program and questions were customized to fit exactly the position we needed."
Diana M. Jaden, Human Resources Manager
PPG Auto Glass, LLC
