Wonderlic Select Erfahrungen

Best Applicant Tracking Software that I demoed.

Vorteile:

I love the clean layout of the site. It is super easy to use and set up and customize. The customer service is spectacular and any time I have suggestions or feedback, I am "heard." They are "common sense" and if a recommendation is made on how to improve their system, they take it to heart and make it happen. I LOVE LOVE LOVE jobsoid!

Nachteile:

Texting is only one way - outbound. Responses are not received which is super annoying. I love everything else which makes it totally worth it. :)

ALWAYS USE THIS RESOURCE! IT WORKS!

Kommentare: Overall, I have been satisfied with the product. We have used this testing for over two years at our office and it never fails to accurately assess candidates. The monthly fee for this service is worth the money you'll save in the long run hiring the wrong person.

Vorteile:

I like the ease of use for using this product. It also allows me to save past candidate information and evaluate who may be a good fit for our team. Another great system the software contains is the ability to flag when someone may be trying to answer questions untruthfully and you can initiate retesting. I have used this test for candidates during pre-hire screenings, and also in the probationary period. It always works. If the person scored well, they perform well. If they didn't, they don't. It's so simple! Such a time saver on investing in someone who ultimately is not a great fit for your organization.

Nachteile:

The software had an update about a year ago and I can no longer access the 1.0 version results for existing staff. We are also work in a specialty of the health field, but the job descriptions are more generalized. Maybe in time this can be more tailored to niche markets.

Vorteile:

The ease of using Wonscore is a plus.

Nachteile:

I have found that it is not the most detailed, and that its not very accurate.

Helpful tool, but only part of the puzzle

Kommentare: Wonscore has been a great point of reference for us and does help give you an idea of who you're talking to, but it probably shouldn't be the deciding factor. We've had high scores fizzle out and lower scores thrive but overall, we've been able to increase the level of our employee hires.

Vorteile:

Easy to use. Easy to move employees to different job profiles to see potential fits within the company. Very easy to learn. Lots of job profiles. Provides a good starting point for evaluations. Good support when needed.

Nachteile:

Because job profiles are prebuilt, they make assumptions about what skills are needed. If you have the chosen job but you don't use all the skills they assume, that could create misleading test scores. Candidates can only be archived and not deleted short of asking their support (as of writing this).

I have been using it for 2 years. Easy to use. Helps us make hiring decisions

Vorteile:

The product is very easy to use. Able to copy link into an email template and use over and over. Straight forward instructions and easy to learn too

Nachteile:

I wish I was notified when someone completed an assessment without having to login. It should be more automated. I wish there was more detail on job descriptions and what is being focused on

Wonscore has improved retention 40% in first 9 months

Kommentare: Quality of hires has improved dramatically

Vorteile:

It is easy to use, has a great dash board - is excellent at matching candidates to positions. Took a while to get buy-in from the hiring managers, but Wonscore has been 100% correct in its predictions of applicants who wouldn't succeed. Almost scary-accurate.

Nachteile:

We are really happy with this service. I could only suggest make it easier to move candidates to different positions, perhaps more choices in jobs. Overall, I don't have any improvements I need.

Great assessment tool

Kommentare: We use it to evaluate all candidates and like the results.

Vorteile:

Wonscore is easy to use and provides detailed results that really help with hiring decisions.

Nachteile:

No real cons that I've seen, it works as described.

Very useful screening tool for large applicant pools.

Vorteile:

The ability to objectively gauge the quality of people applying to our programs in a quick and efficient manner.

Nachteile:

We have been unable to prevent certain candidates from retaking the test multiple times. It would be nice if there were individual links that expired after being used once.

Fun, challenging

Kommentare: Helps me measure reliability. Measure skills and team work as well.

Vorteile:

It was a great learning experience and made you really learn more about your self and how you work as a team, how you problem solve and certainly tested your mental ability

Nachteile:

It was a bit time consuming but worth it. Other than that the software is great! It seems that people who are foreign seem to have a harder time as well from my personal experience

Wonderlic bolts in nicely to your existing hiring process

Kommentare: Wonscore provides us a great way to get detailed info on our candidates before we even meet them. I highly recommend it.

Vorteile:

The insights provided by the Wonscore reports can guide your interview questions to dig into possible "red flag" areas.

Nachteile:

There's not a lot to dislike - I suppose maybe it would be nice to be able to somehow integrate into other hiring tools like GoHire.

Wonscore from Wonderlic Review

Kommentare: I think it is a great benefit for the value. I like that it is easy to use and it is a yearly subscription versus cost per assessment.
I would like to be able to explain why candidates scored they way they did to hiring managers.
Also, I think I great feature would be that candidates are emailed their results once their assessment is completed.

Vorteile:

Very easy to administer assessments and view the results of assessments. I like the ability to assign several administrators so that hiring managers are able to administer and review assessments on their own. More often that not, we have found that candidates we chose to hire despite their assessment results were bad hires and the assessments were pretty accurate.

Nachteile:

If there was a way that I could easily provide hiring managers what exactly their candidates were being assessed on for each position easily that would be a great help. Most of my hiring managers don't question assessment results, but sometimes, for example, a candidate will score low on stay, but they have been working for us as a temp employee for 3 months. I would like to be able to explain why that candidate scored low on stay.

Adds additional layer of information to use in considering candidates

Vorteile:

It is easy to use and administer, easy to review, and easy to understand. Helpful guidance when selecting between several good candidates.

Nachteile:

There seems to be limitations to the types of positions available for roles within a company. The existing job descriptions may not quite match with roles in a company.

The benefits of Wonscore....pros and cons

Kommentare: Overall, the results that we received, were definitely beneficial. It saved us on two occasions from making a "wrong" hire. So, yes, I am satisfied with the service we received, and the price we paid was worth the monthly investment. I feel that the initial 3 month investment was fair and affordable. Had the contract been longer or the price higher, I probably wouldn't have used Wonscore. After the 3 month contract, the month to month availability is current with what I see with other types of vendors. For a small business like ours, the terms and price worked out perfectly.

Vorteile:

I thought that the pre-screen employment test was accurate. I had one of my employees take the test so I could get a good read on what other applicants were seeing, so I could do a comparison. I was amazed how accurate the test scores were. I compared one of employee's scores with their actual ability, and it was almost 100 % right on. This result gave me additional confidence in the Wonscore testing process. I also like the tracking and progress regarding an applicant's testing.

Nachteile:

I am somewhat confused with some of the emails that I receive from Wonscore. One of the emails I received said that I could log into my Wonscore account and based upon the applicant's score, there would be specific interview questions that I could use as a guide. But, after I logged into the account, there was no reference to any questions to use as a guide for the interview. I tried to navigate through the website, but to no avail. This email message came up several times. Maybe, the interview questions were based on MY review of the test scores, not Wonscore's?? Confusing.

Helpful in sorting through recruits

Kommentare: It has been a very helpful tool in my hiring process.

Vorteile:

I do like that it provides a great avenue for sifting through new hire candidates. I am able to eliminate undesirable candidates at a much earlier stage.

Nachteile:

I feel that some of the tests are too long and repetitive. We seemingly lose a lot of candidates mid-stream because of this.

Skyworks Inc.

Kommentare: We needed an accepted and vetted system that can support our hiring decisions - whether we hire or do not.

Vorteile:

It give us peace of mind when we make final hiring decisions. I feel that in most cases it is reflective and supports what we see during the interviews themselves.

Nachteile:

I do wish we could delete or remove people from the system - I know you can Archive but complete removal would be better. E.g. - I had two people enter the same person twice...system let us and then I couldn't delete the extra entry...

Amazing!

Kommentare: I like seeing the scores of candidates before I get them in front of our hiring managers. It saves a lot of time and lets us see where this candidate could be best placed.

Vorteile:

I love what this assessment tests. Cognitive, Motivation and Personality are very important in all of our roles here, and I love that we can see where our candidates lack and excel at.

Nachteile:

The only thing that I do not like about the software is that it is pretty hard to get back to the job board that a candidate applied for. Ex: When you click the notification, if you click on their name to see the scores, you have to go to the job board, click the job, then scroll to find the candidates. It would be much easier if you had a "Job applied for" tab at the top of the results from the candidate that could take you back to see the rest of the candidates.

This test has proven to be very accurate and helpful throughout the hiring process.

Vorteile:

We have been using the Wonscore Wonderlic test as part of our hiring process for over 2 years and we have found this to be one of the most accurate tests. It is very easy to administer and to navigate the site.

Nachteile:

The only drawback that I had with the assessment was resolved a while back with a system update. We are now able to "follow" candidates in order to be notified when they have started/completed the assessment. This is a huge help!

Overall effective product

Kommentare: It is a good tool for candidate fit.

Vorteile:

Easy to send out, results are easy to interpret, does what it is supposed to do.

Nachteile:

There isn't anything I can think of at the moment, it is effective for what we use it for.

Good Product

Kommentare: Good tool, it's not a silver bullet and doesn't replace the need for an interview, but it enhances the interview process and can make it more productive leading to a higher potential for success with a hire.

Vorteile:

Easy to retest and re-profile candidates that have already taken the test. Gives some broad level insight into the candidate and helps narrow in questions to ask during the interview process.

Nachteile:

What the product gained in ease of use and universality it lost in some the detail you used to get from the older WonderLic platform we were on. In some cases is overly broad and general without enough specifics. Sometimes single reports give contradictory findings about a candidate in multiple areas

I like the cognitive, timed piece. It helps show problem-solving skills

Vorteile:

The cognitive timed assessment - I like the timed piece as it shows problem-solving ability and basic intelligence which is critical to our organization.

Nachteile:

The motivation and personality assessments. I took the assessment myself and had I been a candidate, I would not have fared well. One thing the assessment said about me is that I would not stay and commit to the job. I've been here 5 years. It concerns me that some manager might pass up a great candidate because of these results. So I often find myself telling them to disregard those results - which doesn't really solve the problem either.

Love It! You Need It :)

Kommentare: You absolutely NEED to Include this tool in your hiring process! As an HR professional and hiring manager I've done a ton of reading and real life application regarding the importance of hiring right in a way that contributes to engagement and intent to stay of employees... and this tool helps you hire the right person for your business by screening them based on their cognitive ability, motivation, and personality as it pertains to the specific role you're hiring for. We use it in conjunction with Kolbe, the Strengths Finder Assessment, the Top Grading Hiring Process, and the usual resume/ cover letter/ reference check tools. I highly recommend this tool; it's what the pros use!! :)

Assessments are very helpful in determining a person's competency level

Vorteile:

I really like the ease of use of the assessments

Nachteile:

I wish the assessment was a tiny bit shorter.

Review

Kommentare: I really have enjoyed it. We do hire most candidates that score well on it, it's nice to see your thoughts or feelings about an applicant match up on their score. Like if you're iffy on a candidate and they score bad, it helps eliminate or justify your feelings on them.

Vorteile:

Ease of use, easy interaction with applicants, customer service - answered questions within 24 hours, ability to customize jobs

Nachteile:

I'm not sure why the non-motivators are shown, I feel like it still puts a negative impact on the person - not with their score but the employer viewing. We can understand it doesn't impact the job, but you will still look at it differently. I think the survey is a bit long as well, its thorough but definitely takes some time.

It's been a helpful tool for adding an extra layer of data to our recruiting process

Kommentare: Added data to our hiring process

Vorteile:

Ease of use, easy to get started. The data reports given after a candidate completes a review have been helpful and we are already using them frequently.

Nachteile:

The preselected jobs seem oddly specific, and they also are missing some very basic job titles. Account managers and business development reps. Also the fact that someone can be "too smart" for a job on their score makes no sense to me. I don't buy that they might be bored easily.

Wonderlic Online Review

Kommentare: I am able to narrow the candidate field, both my people who are just "testing the waters" (i.e. wasting my precious time) vs. people who are really interested in the position and weeding out people who write a good resume, but don't have the cognitive skill to back it up.

Vorteile:

This software really helps me get past resumes and know how candidates will perform in the specific role.

Nachteile:

Sometimes an individual with lower self esteem or self confidence will not score well in personality or motivation when they would be fine under the right supervision with positive reinforcement
