The Hiring Process is Evolving

The Current Solution

The Yardstick Way

Sales Hires Have the Highest Failure Rate

The failure rate makes planning difficult and results in missed targets. 

Positions Remain Unfilled

Hiring is time-consuming. For a rep with a $1 million quota, each unfilled seat costs $83,000 per month in lost revenue.

 

Self-Selected Interview Questions

Interviewers use a variety of sources to select their interview questions or come up with questions on the fly in response to candidates' answers.

Uncertainty in the Interview Process

Skills and competencies aren't well defined before interviewing, causing uncertainty in accurately assessing job candidates' fit.

Ineffective Training

Interviewing teams are infrequently trained, and tend to forget best practices during the interview.
