How It Works?



SkillSurvey Pre-Hire 360™ provides a fast, efficient process that enables recruiters and hiring managers to receive a complete, candid, confidential assessment of a candidate's suitability for a particular job based on data provided by references regarding past performance and behaviors.


  • Recruiters and hiring managers enter candidates and select surveys. In less than a minute, a recruiter or hiring manager enters a candidate's contact information and selects a SkillSurvey that fits the job opportunity for which the candidate is being evaluated.
  • Candidates enter business references. The candidate receives an e-mail with instructions and a link to a secure web page where he or she enters up to five or more business references, two of which must be supervisor level. The hiring manager or recruiter receives the reference list and can intervene if the references are incomplete or inappropriate.
  • References provide confidential performance feedback. Each reference receives an e-mail from the candidate requesting that he or she complete a confidential web-based survey regarding the candidate's skills and behaviors. More than 72% of these references click the link to the survey and provide complete, candid responses within 24 to 48 hours.
  • The SkillSurvey Pre-Hire 360™ engine aggregates, analyzes, and scores candidates. The SkillSurvey Pre-Hire 360™ engine aggregates, analyzes and delivers the results in a comprehensive report that identifies each candidate's risk factors, behavior profile, and proficiency levels in job-critical competencies.
  • Recruiters and hiring managers assess candidate past performance. The report is used to flag key areas to explore in a subsequent interview, to eliminate high risk or unqualified candidates, or to identify high potential candidates for immediate hire. View a Sample Report.
