1. Why should I believe that Organizational Psychology would work for my business?

Intuitively we know that some people are shy, some are bold, some are detail oriented and others are timid. There are hundreds of traits and preferences that interact, representing the core set of behavioral preference within each of us. Just like our physical appearance, we are all unique when it comes to behavioral characteristics. Organizational Psychology studies these behavioral characteristics to better identify, understand, and maximize potential of each individual's behavioral preferences. There is a rich history of research and validation proving the effectiveness and validity of Psychological Assessments, making them a common practice for over a hundred years.

6. Why should we use Résuméfit’s Integrated Evidentiary Resume System™ (IERS™) vs. another competitive offering?

In our humble opinion Résuméfit in conjunction with the Center for Applied Cognitive Studies has comprehensive intellectual property (IP) available for a cradle (employee starts) to grave (employee departs) solution. Integration of intellectual property from other vendors simply would not work as the basis for the assessments is in its underlying taxonomies, which must be identical in all assessments utilized in a solution. It boils down to who has the best and most comprehensive science, and we sincerely believe that we are in a position to provide precisely that now and in the future.
 
Also, Résuméfit applies science to the critical front-end problem of résu-mess. The garbage in - garbage out principle suggests that the résu-mess going in will indeed cause havoc on the backside resulting in poor hiring decisions. Résuméfit's IERS™ is the only solution available that allows candidates to share sufficient, relevant, and valid information to employers during all phases of the resume review process.
 
Furthermore, Résuméfit is as fast, more effective, and most often less expensive. Our tools are completely web-based, providing candidates and hiring managers instant and collaborative access to information from anywhere at anytime. Our reports are designed to provide both summary and detailed technical data to meet all of your needs. Our software is delivered as a service (ASP) and doesn’t require the purchase of hardware or the installation of software or ongoing upgrades. Furthermore, there is no need to burden your IT department for installation or ongoing maintenance. You simply sign up and start using the system.
