LEARN HOW

The Hire the Best system works

LEARN WHY

We help you hire like pro sports

Most businesses struggle to hire great people.

BECAUSE THEY DO THIS…

#1 – Follow a weak hiring process

#2 – Do NOT train people how to assess players 

#3 – Limit scouting activities

#4 – Write bland job ads & descriptions

#5 - Casually assess players trying out

#6 – Have bias in their hiring decisions

#7 – Are sloppy in new hire onboarding

THEY GET THIS…

Bad, emotional hiring decisions

Make costly assumptions about candidates

Superstars do NOT know of openings

Top talent NOT inspired to try out

Average performers hired

Posers hired who do poor work

Uncommitted superstars sign, but quit.

NBA teams and other pro sports franchises don’t do this. 

They only hire the best.

Our Hire the Best system enables you to wisely assess who’s the most powerful addition to your team.   Don’t you want a dream team who’s competing to win championships?

  • - Pete Duenes, Co-Founder of Compounded Nutrients

    “The first time I used the Hire the Best system, including their hiring questionnaire, we hired an all-star employee. That employee is still with us after a year and a half and is thriving. The hiring system allowed us to hire more systematically and come off as a very organized, professional place to work, which I believe is enticing.”

    - Pete Duenes, Co-Founder of Compounded Nutrients

  • “The Return on Investment with Hire the Best has been truly impressive. It's been a game changer for us. I encourage you to do their SWOT analysis on your Hiring System. At the very least you'll understand what's needed.”

  • “I had a team of ten people. We struggled with high turnover and inconsistent performance. However, I implemented Hire the Best, which revolutionized our recruitment and team building.

Recognizing the best fit for each opening has resulted in effective, long-term contributors to our team.”
