Job Benchmarking

Let the Job Talk to Create a Solid Foundation for Development & Selection

Let the Job Talk

Businesses everywhere are seeking better ways to secure the talent necessary for success. But what talent does a job require for superior performance? Only the JOB has the answer, so let it talk and listen carefully. A patented job benchmarking process enables businesses to assess the work and talent to find the best fit.

Depending on the benchmarking tool used, you can quickly determine the behaviors, values, personal skills and task preferences required for superior performance. The job benchmarking process makes it easy to remove common biases often associated with the hiring process. Instead, factual data based on job requirements provide a solid foundation for coaching and hiring success!

The Job Benchmarking Process

The patented job benchmarking process provided by Carlan Consulting is a unique and effective solution because it benchmarks a specific job, not the people in the job. To do this, we let the job talk through an interactive process and job assessment. The end result is your next great hire.

• Define the Job to be Benchmarked
  It’s important to understand why the job exists, how success in the job is measured, the history of the position, and how it fits the company’s strategy.
• Identify Subject Matter Experts
  Subject Matter Experts are people within the organization that have a direct connection to the job and use their expertise to create the job benchmark. They let the job talk and define the position’s key accountabilities, or critical goals and key business successes the job is accountable for. Then they rank the key accountabilities by importance and time requirements. Based on the key accountabilities, each Subject Matter Expert responds to the job assessment, providing their input on performance requirements.
• Review the Multiple Respondent Report
  Based on a unique analysis, the Multiple Respondent Report combines the input of all Subject Matter Experts to create a benchmark for the job that lists the job requirements in each category measured.
• Compare Talent to the Job Benchmark
  A talent assessment on the same scale as the job will identify the characteristics an individual will bring to the job, allowing you to easily determine the best job fit and identify coaching opportunities.
• Discuss the Results & Implementation Strategy
  Within the framework of a company’s overall selection process, effective hiring decisions can be made and productivity can begin immediately.
