New Pairin Solution Makes Hiring More Predictable and Less Costly

DENVER, Feb. 13, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Pairin, Inc. today launched Job Pairin, a web-based solution for pre-employment selection that "flips" the hiring process by emphasizing behavioral DNA first, followed by experience and other considerations.

Job Pairin uniquely identifies optimal interview candidates by comparing them to the Gold Standard created through testing of existing employees in the same positions according to 137 peak performance drivers.

Founded by Dr. Ron Young (PhD in Psychology) and Michael L. Simpson, Denver-based Pairin enters the fast-growing, pre-employment selection market with a portfolio of easily integrated and affordable SaaS applications.

"Culminating 10 years of custom implementations with multiple customers, Job Pairin includes
18 months of rigorous prototype and beta testing across numerous trial sites," said Simpson, co-founder and CEO. "Early implementations have proven to both lower employee turnover and hiring time spent up to 80 percent."

Leveraging more than 50 years of proven science, Job Pairin provides a simple 10-minute online test that accurately selects applicants with the best potential for success. The solution includes a complete applicant tracking system and custom-branded website that can integrate with an existing eRecruitment solution, job boards and corporate job sites.

"Within one year of implementing an early prototype of Job Pairin in 2003, we saw our employee turnover in that position drop from 32 percent to 11 percent, saving us millions in training and hiring costs," said Derek Temper, Director of Human Resources at Dent Wizard. "In December 2012, we converted to the new cloud service and are very pleased with the updated features and reliability, especially the applicant-specific hiring insights and interview guide."

How It Works
The Gold Standard calculation within Job Pairin is based on data received from assessing at least three each of best and worst performers in the same position as the job listing. Only six tests are required to generate a Gold Standard, but additional tests will result in more accurate and detailed results.

• Job Pairin takes this data and automatically compares it to all applicants from the job listing, generating a ranked list of top applicants as compared to the Gold Standard.
• The entire process can be deployed in only 10 minutes and costs $199 per month to assess unlimited employees and unlimited applicants against one job listing.
• Job Pairin automatically generates applicant-specific guides with insights and recommended questions to help hiring managers conduct effective interviews. 

"Identifying the Gold Standard enables hiring managers to streamline the hiring process by focusing attention on candidates demonstrating the behaviors and characteristics of their most-valued and dedicated employees," said Simpson.  "With 50 percent of new hires failing within 18 months and 60 percent of employees believing they are a poor fit for their jobs, Job Pairin is vital to helping organizations make the best hire for the right reasons."

Designed for small organizations and departments, Employee Pairin will be introduced in late-February and compares a top applicant to a single top employee. Employee Pairin costs $49 for a one-to-one test and 30 day job posting; additional applicants are just $29 each.

All Pairin pre-employment solutions are delivered via cloud computing and accessible through web-enabled platforms, desktop applications and mobile devices.
