    Executive Assessment and Coaching Firm rd&partners Offers Web-based Employee & Management Assessment Tools that PREDICT Successful Job Performance With a 90% Accuracy

    rd&partners is an executive coaching firm that offers unique and exclusive executive assessment, management assessment, and employee assessments for Fortune 500 companies and others. Since the year 2000 rd&partners has helped clients in divergent industries throughout North America and Europe improve revenues, increase profitability, and improve productivity.

    Chicago, IL (PRWEB) September 13, 2011

    rd&partners, an executive coaching and assessment firm, is now offering online access to their exclusive employee assessment tools. These unique assessments were created by ASSESS Systems and validated to predict effective job performance to prevent costly hiring mistakes for sales professionals, hourly employees, as well as executive and managerial employees.

    Salesmax – a talent assessment tool for Sales professionals – predicts with a 70% accuracy, a potential hire being in the Top 50% of sales associates based on earned compensation, while the SELECT suite of assessment surveys designed for entry level for employees – has a 90%+ accuracy in determining top performing candidates.

    Rising unemployment hasn’t resulted in the talent surplus many would expect. In fact, as a growing number of corporations throughout the U.S., Canada, and Europe have noted, identifying qualified candidates to fill vacant positions has become increasingly difficult. For some corporations the pressure to fill crucial positions has resulted in costly hiring mistakes.

    Newspapers across the country have featured article after article on the hiring difficulties corporations are now facing. One recent msnbc.com article noted the frustration felt by many companies, explaining that the solution lies in using defined measures when hiring, training and developing employees. Another article explained that the standard methods of reviewing resumes and interviewing candidates fail to accurately predict the success of a new hire.

    In response, management and executive assessment firm rd&partners now offers a series of tools using research-tested and validated assessments designed to predict successful job performance of its clients in hiring and developing qualified leadership talent from those at the most senior levels to those at the front line.

    Jan W. Passmore, President of The Wellesley Group had this to say about rd&partners, “Their ability to analyze a situation and to provide a well thought out and workable solution is a testament to their incredible pool of talent.”

    Passmore continues, “They were most helpful in evaluating existing professional staff during my time as President/CEO of Aon Risk Services of Indiana.”
