FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Austin, Texas (Januay 18, 2016) – One of the big four national wireless retailers has reduced turnover from 65% to 25% across a dozen store locations for three sales positions: sales associate, sales manager, and regional sales manager.

These results came after Mindy Bortness, a strategic partner of ThinkPlanLaunch, applied a patented process to benchmark performance for these jobs.

“I think the climate was right for trying something like this in our selection process,” said Jeff Huffman, executive director of HR and training for A Wireless. “TTI’s assessments were just one of the spokes on the wheel that helped limit turnover.”

Huffman said using TTI’s assessments has reshaped its interview and employee selection processes. He has confirmed TTI’s assessments will remain in place in the company’s selection process.

“It’s almost unreal how well it worked,” Bortness commented, with regards to the substantial decrease in turnover.

What is Job Benchmarking?

ThinkPlanLaunch uses a patented process to benchmark the performance factors required for success in a job.

This process is called “Job Benchmarking” because it creates an ideal candidate profile in terms of objective, measurable performance factors. The final job benchmark report, which is produced from TTI’s advanced and patented computer algorithms, also includes recommended interview questions.

Companies then use their newly created Job Benchmark to screen job applicants for job fit – and to create personal development plans for existing employees. Gap reports visually depict the “gaps” where employees, or job applicants, are falling short in their performance.

This helps hiring managers decide who to hire and identify gaps needing attention during onboarding. For existing employees, job benchmarking helps employees and their managers understand where to focus developmental efforts. Personal performance reports, workbooks, and coaching are provided as additional resources to guide the individual’s development.
