Our numbers show that our hiring classes are consistently staying and out-selling the same classes from last year. We have cut turnover in half, but even better, our average new hire sells at least 24% more in the same time frame. We see a major difference in sales-per-person in the first 90 days and at the 6 month mark.
I personally appreciate your help and expertise in expediting our re-organization. All of us are pleased with the discipline you brought to the change process. Your help and the use of the assessments cut our restructuring time significantly. What appeared to be a year-long project was implemented in eight months.
It has now been over two years since we brought our last driver on board. The job-matching approach you introduced to us has made a real difference and the assessment tools are the best we have ever used. We have been able to motivate and keep our Drivers and still have not had to hire another one.
The tools and expert coaching from Kirk over the past two years has led to our lowest turnover, highest morale and productivity in our 15 years in business. We are eternally grateful for the part this process plays in our hiring and in the culture we’ve derived from incorporating Kirk and the assessment into our hiring protocol.
We have used other products, so we know the value of good assessment tools. Still, none of the others come close to the reporting power and usefulness of the PXT Select.
