"Just thought I would drop you a short note to let you know that we have been very pleased with the results of the Profile Assessment program.
We have been using this now for seven or eight months and very honestly have been very successful in hiring some excellent personnel for our sales staff.
The benchmarking system made sense to me when you explained it and has proven to be a successful means of hiring applicants who have a tendency to fit in with the team.
Again, I thank you for bringing this system to our attention and I find the cost of the program to be reasonable.
Additionally, thanks for installing the Windows '95 system on our computer as it makes the whole process easier.
If you need a reference, I would be most happy to talk with prospective candidates for your program. Thanks again and good luck."

"You just left my office and I wanted to send you a note to thank you for you. Now that may sound pretty corny, but I appreciate working with people that are as helpful, knowledgeable and friendly as you. This, makes our business dealings more like a friendship than real work and that is refreshing these days.
The Step One Survey has helped us with our recruiting and hiring process by offering us valuable information we did not have before. Again, thank you for the helpful and caring service you always deliver."

"It is approximately one year since we...made the decision to incorporate the Prevue Assessment into our hiring process. We have been very pleased with this investment decision. With the use of the Prevue Assessment we have been afforded the opportunity to be much better informed about our prospective employees. We have found the benefits to be:
- The objectivity in making the "hiring decision."
- The specific and relevant areas of questions suggested for use on the interview.
- Highlighting the areas which need to be examined/probed more deeply (perhaps which would have been overlooked otherwise).
- The insights offered for personal development.
The goal of our organization is to create a positive sales environment in our automobile showrooms. In addition, we strive to provide top notch service to our customers. We require the right kind of sales person to accomplish this.
We recently did a survey of our dealership managers to determine the most important factor in creating a positive sales atmosphere. The managers decided that hiring the right sales people is the most important factor in achieving that goal.
We are pleased with the services that your organization has provided helping us to utilize the Prevue Assessment.
We...highly recommend the "Prevue"..."

"Two years have passed since we started using the Prevue. It has become a very integral part of our applicant evaluation process. The Prevue enables us to look into attitudes of applicants long before an offer of employment is made.
The is tool has had a positive effect on our ability to work as a team and our ability to achieve customer satisfaction scores higher than ever believed possible.
Thanks for helping us with the Prevue. It leads us to the right people."
"I have living proof that your testing program works when people listen closely to your results.
Just a few months ago, I was interviewing applicants for the positions of Service Manager. I was tremendously impressed by one applicant and was ready to make a job offer. Then I...tested. The applicant would have been a mistake...a terrible mistake.
I next interviewed another prospect who did not display as commanding a presence as the first prospect, yet had an air of sincerity. Your testing program showed the prospect to be outstanding in the areas of technical knowledge, interpersonal skills and business knowledge. I hired the second prospect as Service Manager, and the results are amazing...our Customer Satisfaction Index scores are approaching an all-time high.
Without your testing, I would have relied on my own 'gut instincts' and would have made a terrible mistake. I'm a true believer in the Prevue.
"I just wanted to let you know how beneficial we have found the Prevue Assessment. The reports on our current employees were unbelievable accurate. What took us months and even years to learn about our employees was presented in the Prevue Assessment report in about an hour. The reports were right on mark for each employee. I was really amazed how accurate the Prevue was on each employee.
Using the Prevue for new hires, I have found it helpful to know what type of employee I was hiring up front. Not only could I pick a better job match, I was able to better understand how to manage each person. This could only lead to better communications, better employee performance and reduced turnover. I would recommend the Prevue to any company that wanted to do a better job of hiring and of managing their employees."
