### "Very useful tool for hiring staff!"

August 26, 2019

5.0

The customer service is above and beyond. My questions have always been answered in a timely fashion and the test results are almost immediate.

Pros

Very user friendly. Love that I can test and screen potential new hires prior to making a job proposal.

Cons

The testing does seem to be very advanced. Would love a more simplified version.

September 4, 2018

5.0

We are using the tests to screen employees pre hire.

Pros

Easy to send tests to candidates. Easy to discuss tests results with someone.

Cons

Some candidates can not load the tests. There is not one to call concerning this that knows how to help them.

April 2, 2018

5.0

Hire a person that fits the needs of the job, thus a win-win because the employee is happy with their job.

New approach to finding qualified people to work for my company. The software can be customized to fit my needs. Easy to administer, and the result were quickly returned to me. It was accurate and easy to use. The cost fit my budget

Cons

I found nothing negative about the software. The approach was different from any other similar, but the resulted exceeded my expentations.

November 28, 2017

5.0

Evaluations have been spot-on, response time on receiving evaluations has been good, customer service very responsive. Satisfied customer!

Pros

We have used TheHireTalent evaluations for a couple years now. We have found the evaluations to be very accurate and helpful in the hiring process and will continue to use them for future hires.

### "I found the process to be organized and easy. "

November 16, 2017

4.0

Was able to get a better understanding of potential candidates and used this software to measure our steps in the process of moving forward or stopping the hiring process.

Pros

I thought the customer service was remarkable. The software was easy to use, and timeliness of the follow up reports were great.

Cons

Although the follow up reports seem very reliable. I thought the results in very few instances when measured were not specific enough to our industry. However, I we would use them again.

### "Hiring that Doesn't Hurt"

August 3, 2018

5.0

I had a couple of questions about the software. I was dreading asking for help. BUT the team over at Hire Talent was freaking great about answering my questions. Turnaround times were great and gave me hope for tech support people all over the world. =)

Pros

I can't stress enough how happy I am to have a tool to benchmark with. It's hard enough hiring without any data. The Hire Talent gives me more confidence to make decisions. I'm a data nerd and it sooths my empirical itch.

Cons

There's no magic "make all my decisions for me" button.

### "Excellent tool to be used for determining the proper fit for a role"

November 27, 2018

5.0

We used the software to help us determine the proper candidate for a role. The software helped us eliminate a few candidates by helping us narrow down interview questions. We definitely made the right choice on our candidate and the software made it clear who we should be hiring.

Pros

I enjoyed the ability to review the analysis of the test takers and ask The Hire Talent questions that would help me determine the direction in follow-up interviews.

Cons

Nothing. I truly enjoyed the software and we will continue to use it in the future.

### "Use the Hire Talent as another tool to rank potential job candidates"

December 4, 2017

4.0

Helps with ranking job candiates

Pros

Provides a method to objectively rank candidates beyond subjective reference checks and interview results.

Cons

Results can sometimes be contradictory between different tests. Test results are not always straightforward to interpret.

### "Helpful software to get deeper."

September 17, 2021

4.0

Pros

I like the ease of use and the quick turnaround time for results.

Cons

Just making sure to get the right test assigned to the right position, maybe a chart to pick tests related to the position and what the test measures.

### "Not the Best Pre-employment Assessment Vendor!"

September 27, 2021

2.0

Pros

It is inexpensive and easy to get up and running. The assessments are decent, and the scoring is comprehensive. Customer service folks are very friendly and responsive, although not hugely helpful.

Cons

Sending or assigning pre-employment assessments to a candidate is a tedious process. There are two platforms, and the admin dashboard is unnavigable and unintuitive. I have heard from multiple customer support representatives at the Hire Talent that their system and platforms are "not the best" and "difficult to use." They have no faith in their product, and rightfully so; even if it is fairly inexpensive and the assessments are decent, it's a waste of time.

### "Uncertainty"

August 27, 2019

2.0

We were using the Hire Talent for assessments but have drifted away from it because of so many mixed results.

Pros

I like the information that the assessment should be able to provide.

Cons

I do not have faith in the software's actual validity and the confirmation of it's findings/reviews.

### "Critical Piece to Hiring and Retention"

August 19, 2019

5.0

Pros

We as recruiters still need to hire our own employees. Without this software we wouldn't be able to make an informed decision based on key metrics that we need from our people here. This is an integral piece of hiring process and I don't know what we would do without.

Cons

There is no negative to this software, only positive.

Assessments are accurate and helpful, provide valuable insights into candidates. Really appreciate the correlative reporting for successful/unsuccessful team members, historically.

### "Enjoyed the seeing results, but had trouble interpreting, needed a bit more training."

January 31, 2018

4.0

It's a good start for us to determine if a program like this will be useful to us and to see if we can implement it as we grow. Right now, I think our company is too small to reap real benefits.

Pros

Seemed to work well, give results expected. We don't have a dedicated HR person or tech position on our staff to help with some of the finer details. With our current staffing levels, we just didn't have the manpower to be able to use the program to it's fullest.

Cons

The layout of the final results could be laid out in a more easily understood/simpler way. We most likely needed more training and to have done more research about ow to implement results from this software.

### "The Hire Talent service has significantly improved our hiring process!! "

April 17, 2018

4.0

This software has helped us hire 5 new hires and counting!

Pros

They can customize test to cater to each of our job openings, detailed test results, which are broken down into multiple categories

Cons

In the beginning, we had several issues with the Excel test which required assistance from 2 staff members. Overall it took nearly 2 weeks until we were able to use this particular test for our Administrative Assistant job openings.

### "Great Assessment, Wish It Was More Customizable"

August 19, 2019

5.0

Pros

I really like the assessments, and feel it provides great feedback to support our hiring processes.

Cons

I wish there was more capability for me to customize. We recently switched HR Generalists, and had to reach out to someone to change who the assessment results were emailed to. The support team responded right away to fix it, but I wish I had the capability to make the adjustments myself.
