Pre-Interview Challenge for QA Managers
|
Hiring a manager is one of the toughest challenges for companies, with ever-increasing, long-term, and often irreversible implications. It promises to become even more complex and critical in the coming years. It is an interesting paradox that the higher the level of manager, the greater the risk of the hire. Mistakes may have huge consequences - positive or negative. While the difference in output between a poorly performing and a top performing entry level employee may be as high as 150 percent, the difference for senior managers is 200 - 300% (Hunter, Schmidt & Judiesch, 1990). Infinet has overcome numerous hurdles to create a test battery that predicts with great accuracy those most adept at managing other people. The battery of test looks at: From these areas, Infinet uses its' proprietary scoring
and profiling to arrive at a recommendation for each applicant. The
recommendation will be on a 100-point scale with test takers
scoring in the top percentiles being most desirable. The test
reduces turnover, improves productivity, and improves morale among
staff by identifying managers that treat others with respect.
