How we’re different
We are not a recruiting firm, but we complement and enhance your ability to hire top performers who will produce and stay with your company. After two decades as users in sales management and executive management and as a coach working with both internal and external recruiters and inside Executive Search firms that there is a natural conflict of interest. A recruiters focus is on placement and gathering as many qualified candidates, as possible, who are easy to place. There focus is on the sale (placement), it’s how they get paid. There’s nothing wrong with that approach. Most recruiters will know your industry, the position dimensions and your language. They will have good selling skills using today’s technology can source, but its not enough, if your objective is to hire the best candidate that actually fits the role from a Total JOB Fit perspective. We know the costs of a mishire can be double their salary and according to Korn Ferry and Careerbuilder can be 50K or more, and that doesn’t include the disruption factor , opportunity and time loss, when you hire the wrong person.
Our selection methodology and assessment tools will help solve that problem and insure that the candidates you choose are truly the best fit for the job, your culture and your leadership. Our focus is three fold: Performance, Employee Satisfaction and Long-Term Retention.
As former sales managers and corporate executives we understand the ramifications of a bad hire, the costs of attrition and the disruption it can cause. We understand the importance of a win-win placement when the company and the employee both win! Our specialization is sales and sales leaders due to our extensive experience in this field and sales professionals (TOP Performers) are hard to find and difficult to attract. Successful sales people rarely leave when their successful and produce year and year.
We developed our selection system (JOB Modeling, Interviewing, On-boarding) to solve this problem. We compliment, internal and external recruiters, to ensure that you select the best candidates who will perform, meet expectations consistently and stay.
We create a Job Profile with (4) elements: Competencies (can the candidate do the job), Motivation and Values will they do the job) and Behavior (how they do the job) and we often integrate our Emotional Intelligence Assessment, which is especially important for first line management who have a overwhelming impact (good or bad) on the sales team and its players.
Our methodology brings a level of in-depth analysis and objectivity (no conflict of interest) to insure that you hire a candidate who will thrive in your environment, achieve the objectives of the position and enjoy a successful career, as a productive and satisfied employee.
The Levelbreaker Assessment Center was created to provide you with the tools to create a complete JOB Profile, for any position. It enables you to compare candidates against the Ideal Job Profile and our reporting will show you how compatibility the candidate is with the job, culture and leadership. The reporting can compare multiple candidates to ensure that you hire the best one for each position.
