Smart Hire: It's Like Magic

We understand what it’s like being a small business owner and handling every single aspect either by yourself or with a close-knit team behind you. We know this can be daunting at times, especially when your time is spread thin between several operational tasks each day. You may even find yourself struggling to devote enough time to any one task, like needing to find a new hire and fast.

It’s always difficult when an individual leaves your small business’s team. Why? It’s likely that they played a vital role in your day to day operations; Now your team is working double time to make sure all the work gets done, and you’re staying late to read through hundreds of resumes trying to decide who might be a good fit, who to interview (and when with all the time you don’t have?!), and who is just wasting your time because they are unqualified.

Does this situation sound familiar? Chances are you have been there before and exhausted all of your time, effort, and extra expenses just trying to find one single person to fill that crucial role again.

It’s because we understand small business operations and resources that we have come up with a solution that won’t take up any more of your time, or break the bank. SmartHire is your one-stop shop when it comes to the recruiting and hiring processes. But don’t just take our word for it.

Meet Dan Carbone from Virteom. Virteom creates web and mobile technology for business owners, landscapers, freelancers, marketing firms and departments, business consultants, IT firms, and more. Running this kind of business is no easy feat, and Dan needed a full-scale solution when it came to the hiring process. Here’s what he has to say about his Smart Hire experience:

“Virteom is a bit over 4 years old and one thing I learned along the way is that when it comes to hiring it can take much longer than anticipated. Not only did I find myself wound up in countless job submissions but trying to read through everything and make a good judgement on who to bring in to interview. Once I made that decision I then had to find the time to interview each candidate. That alone took time.

Then I came across Pre-Select who has this product called SmartHire that was specifically designed to solve my problem. I simply gave Pre-Select my applicant information and the magic started to happen. I would log-in to their Job applicant portal every day and review all the new applicants they listed to me. I didn’t have to grade them, they were already pre-screened and graded for me and also marked as a possible fit or not. Who does that? I mean I had applicants in there that SmartHire said wasn’t a good fit and why. I didn’t have to spend hours, only minutes to read the synopsis and notes and decide who I wanted to interview out of the top candidates. This cut the process to about 75% less in terms of my effort and time.

Eventually we chose the right employee and she is still with Virteom today. I would highly recommend the SmartHire product because they use real human beings to monitor and sort applicants out for me.”
