The Prevue Assessment identifies and quantifies these important traits for each candidate, revealing the learning abilities, interests and work related personality traits that directly impact success on the job. The Result Job Fit. The right person is hired for the right job which means reduced turnover costs, increased productivity and a better bottom line.

Vital to all important employment decisions, Prevue provides critical job fit data about people and their jobs, effectively predicting potential productivity and performance. Start with a clear picture of the desired outcome Prevue creates a custom Benchmark for each position or job category and clearly identifies criteria that will lead to success in the position. The Benchmark provides a standard for comparison and is tailored to the requirements of both the job and the company. Benchmarks are derived from proven results of top performers and/or management input from the Prevue Job Description Survey. Recruit and Retain While education, training and previous job experience are important, the old adage: managers hire on competence and fire on fit still applies in most companies.
