Selection/Retention

Kolbe predicts success in recruiting and retention by comparing the necessary instincts for a role with a person's natural instincts. It's a system that gives employees the best chance of success.

Kolbe RightFit™ is Kolbe Corp's innovative, proven placement tool that makes hiring the "right" person much faster, less expensive, and far more effective.

RightFit is used to select individual contributors who match the methods of proven high performers. When success depends on cloning the instincts of your top performers, this is an ideal method for screening candidates. It can also be used for selecting teams for one-of-a-kind jobs. When jobs require working closely and interactively as an integral part of a group, this software provides an objective measure of the Range of Success™ for high potential hires.

The benefits of using Kolbe's RightFit are numerous and compelling:

Cost Savings

A national financial services company estimated annual savings of more than $10 million between interviewing, retraining, and down time.

Employee Retention

Another multi-regional company experienced an increase in retention of managers from a 60% average over the previous 10 years to 100%.

Curbs Absenteeism

Kolbe's RightFit program pinpointed the causes of high absenteeism in several organizations. More than 50% of their high absentees were not suited for their jobs while those with the right instincts for their positions were absent half as often.

Controls Undesired Turnover

0% of the people hired using Kolbe RightFit left for job-related reasons.

Only 5.5% of the group who Kolbe said had a strong "fit" but whose managers tried to mitigate the problems of the mismatch left for job-related reasons.

More than twice as many of the employees hired at a major department store chain using previous selection methods left the company for job-related reasons.

RightFit leverages traditional skills testing and personal interviews by providing a key element previously missing from the hiring process, the rating of candidates according to their natural instincts.

Independent legal counsel has issued an opinion that Kolbe placement tools meet every EEOC requirement. The Kolbe RightFit system has been approved by the legal departments of many of America's leading corporations. No other placement process is as reliable and unbiased by gender, age, race, and national origin.
