Shaker Consulting Group, a Cleveland-based developer of custom pre-employment assessments, hits milestone of ten years.
Cleveland, OH (PRWEB) December 14, 2012
Shaker was founded on a mission to revolutionize how pre-employment assessment is created and delivered. It has attracted market-leading Fortune 500 clients in retail, financial services, hospitality, medical services, insurance, manufacturing, and technology sectors. From its inception in Shaker Heights, OH, the firm has expanded operations into four cities (Atlanta, Pittsburgh, and Washington DC) and employs 12 Ph.D level Industrial/Organizational psychologists engaged in selection science and HR analytics.
The Virtual Job Tryout® is a custom pre-employment assessment designed to leverage the multi-media capabilities of the Internet to deliver a highly engaging, company-branded candidate experience. It educates and evaluates at the same time. “In completing a Virtual Job Tryout, candidates take the job for a test drive and learn a lot about the performance demands. Recruiters obtain information about a candidate that is far more objective and useful than anything found on a resume,” says Brian Stern, Ph.D., president of the firm.
The first Virtual Job Tryout evaluated about 10,000 call center candidates in 2002. This year, the firm has clients which have 5,000 candidates a day complete their Virtual Job Tryout. It is seen as an excellent tool to help companies improve their quality of hire. Shaker clients have deployed the Virtual Job Tryout in the US, Canada, Great Britain, and China.
