Pre-hire Vetting

Imagine Feeling Confident In Your Next Hiring Decision

The hiring process can be an emotional rollercoaster for company owners and hiring managers. On one hand, it can mean your business is growing. On the other hand, it is time consuming and costly. The process itself leads to lost productivity due to the unfilled roles, and the time you and your team take to fill them.

While it’s easy to point out what’s challenging about hiring, Rockstar Workforce looks at the brighter side, and the bigger opportunity of adding right fit, high-potential employees to your team. Our team of talent management strategists will help you craft a more effective hiring process that can shorten hiring cycles, result in improved company culture and help you better scale your human capital in better alignment to your business growth.

Frequently asked questions

How long does the benchmark & role clarification process take?

The first time we facilitate the process with your organization, it will probably take about 2-4 hours depending on the role. Once your team learns the process and we learn more about your company and culture, that time will be reduced to about 2 hours per benchmark.

Who is included in a benchmark? How many people?

People who interact with and understand the role very well. This could be a top performer in the role, a manager, etc. 3-5 subject matter experts is typically what we strive for.

Can we learn to do this process by ourselves?

Absolutely, we can even certify internal employees in the assessment tools we use!

Can we use assessments without doing a benchmark?

Yes, but the interpretation of the assessment is more clear & beneficial when accompanied with the role clarification & benchmark.

Do you recruit or present candidates?

Generally speaking we do not actively recruit candidates for our clients, although we have recruited in the past for very high-level, intricate roles.
