Hire and Promote the Right People
Through our “high touch” relationships, we help clients lengthen the Employee Life Cycle, increase productivity and engagement with better pre-employment assessment and selection systems. OI/Career Consultants' philosophy is that the selection systems and the talent retention programs can not be separated….they should lock together and align with the business goals of the organization.
1. Assessment of Recruiting Efficiencies and Costs of Recruiting
OI/Career Consultants' recruiting assessment process will establish “base line data” about the efficiencies and the cost of your current recruiting programs. We can assess this information for you OR will provide you a complimentary workbook so you can establish the following “base line data” on your own:
- “Real” cost of recruiting
- Response time and efficiency of your recruiting process flow
- Efficiency and effectiveness of your hiring managers
- Sources and cost of sourcing talent
- Effectiveness of utilizing technology in the recruiting process
- Internal customer satisfaction with recruiting services
OI/Career Consultants can also provide you with a “gap analysis,” comparing your “current talent acquisition programs” with “best in class” recruiting programs. From that analysis, a comprehensive plan to improve recruiting efficiencies can be developed.

Why is Assessment Important
Before hiring someone, wouldn’t you like to know if that person is easy to manage, hardworking, cooperative, thorough, innovative, quick to learn your business and good with customers? Before investing in the development of employees, wouldn’t you like to know more about their strengths, weaknesses, preferred learning methods, and even their core values and motivators?

We utilize skilled internet researchers, skilled recruiters, state of the art methodologies, and systems to identify quality talent who are actively on the job market as well talent who are not actively on job market at a fraction of the cost of an agency. In addition, if you like, we build a proprietary data base of talent for you that is a human capital asset.
Our approach to sourcing services is as follows:
- Recruiting Project Plan: Develop job specifications and establish plan and timetable for completion
- Source Candidates utilizing skilled internet researchers and state of the art methodologies, systems to identify a pool of quality talent
- Screen Talent: Pre screen all candidates and reduce the short list to 3-5 who not only meet your specs but also are interested in your opportunity
