Using the CVI™ as a top talent recruitment strategy
Increase your company's profitability when you place people in positions that are the most fulfilling to them. The CVI™ technology puts every person into a position that needs them to be who they really are all day, every day. Use CVI™ results for talent acquisition and put employees on a path to self-actualization and personal development. Transform your business by changing the culture to be supportive of the individual. Employees who have taken the CVI™ can have their scores compared to Top Performer Profile (TPP) scores. Use a TPP to define the role, then match applicants based on their CVI™ profile with unprecedented accuracy. Candidates hired with a high recommend TPP+CVI™ match are often up to 300% more productive than those hired through traditional selection methods.
The CVI™ is the driver of our Top Performer Profile (TPP) fully automated Job Architecture both of which drive our artificial intelligence-driven CVIjobMatch technology.
