MAPS®

Market Analysis + Psychographic Profiling = Focused Recruiting

After using MAPS® to identify the location of the suitable candidates, Remedy develops a specific recruiting plan that consists of:  Classified Advertising, Internet Job Boards, On-Line Application via Remedy Website, Door Hangers and Flyers.


HPT®

Human Performance Technology

In today's high performance work environment, qualities such as positive attitude, strong work ethic and flexibility are important.

Remedy’s exclusive Human Performance Technology (HPT?) identifies employees with "will-do" attitudes that meet your specific job-related criteria.

What is the difference between “will-do” attitudes and “can-do”?
“Can-do” refers to skills, like keyboard proficiency, software mastery, dexterity or technical knowledge that a worker needs to do a job. “Will-do” refers to attitude and behavioral traits such as initiative, teamwork, dependability and the ability to learn. These are more critical as true performance indicators in a realistic work environment.

How is it possible to predict employee behavior?
The same way that psychologists have been predicting human behavior for decades. At Remedy, we’ simply taken the same scientific testing methodology used by psychologists and adapted it to a business application – predicting how employees will perform. We call it Human Performance Technology, and it works.

If “will-do” attitude testing works, why aren't other industries doing it?
Remedy’s Human Performance Technology testing is exclusive to the staffing industry. This testing methodology was designed by HRStrategies, the same Detroit-based human resources consulting firm that designed similar testing programs for the Big Three auto makers, AT&T, Motorola, Pepsi Cola, Hewlett Packard, Merck & Company, and many other Fortune 500 companies.

 

Remedy X-Ray™

Remedy’s innovative technology creates a more productive workforce and a safer environment.

By screening out undesirable, high-risk candidates, Remedy X-Ray helps build a more positive work environment where workers are more focused and productive. As a result, Remedy top performers are more likely to have higher job satisfaction and lower turnover.

Remedy X-Ray identifies applicants who are predisposed to costly and dangerous behavior such as theft, violence or drug use—so we can quickly eliminate them from consideration and our clients can hire with confidence when they need full-time employees.

From a sample of more than 500,000 candidates who participated in integrity screenings, a substantial percentage acknowledged problems:

5.6% admitted to workers’ comp fraud

10.4% admitted to illegal drug use

5.9% admitted to theft

2.8% admitted to violence

What would a 40% increase in productivity be worth to you?

According to McKinsey & Company’s “War for Talent” study, a high performer is 40% more productive than an average performer in an operations role. But how do you maximize your team’s performance to help drive productivity?

The manager-employee relationship is the secret

A study by The Gallup Organization found that the manager-employee relationship is the key to productivity, profitability and employee retention. But what information do you need to make your relationships succeed? Beginning where most selection processes end, Remedy Manager Match uses manager and employee personality assessments to provide managers with the information and insight they need to create more compatible, high-performance relationships.

Approach to Work– ability to self-start, openness to change
Personal Work Style – dependability, ability to organize and handle detail
Interpersonal Approach – need for recognition, resilience, communication compatibility

Remove barriers to success
Using the insight gained from the manager and employee personality assessments, Manager Match delivers a comprehensive Remedy Manager Match Report to provide you with the guidelines you need to effectively manage a specific candidate. By gaining information about each employee’s unique characteristics and work style, it becomes easier to remove barriers to success and achieve exceptional performance.
