STM Planning Solution: Know Exactly Who You're Looking For

There's an old saying that says you can't fit a square peg in a round hole. The STM Planning Solution starts with a review of the position and ends with a well-defined list of measurable qualities needed for employee success. By defining these qualities before you advertise the job you'll know exactly who you're looking for.

STM can do the full planning process or provide just the specific expertise you need when and where you need it.  Here's a quick overview of what we can do:

• Take a look back. If you are filling an existing position, we'll look at what influenced the employee to leave. As one example, if the employee left because they did not measure up to your expectations for that position, STM has tools to benchmark the specific skills, knowledge, attitudes, behaviors and motivation required by the position. This is a key method to reduce the risk of hiring the wrong person again.
  
• Look side-to-side. Who are the key people with whom the new employee must interact? By factoring in their behavioral styles and attitudes, you can greatly refine the specific qualities needed in a person. STM has several scientifically based tools for assessing behavioral traits in the workplace that can replace "fuzziness" with concrete specifics - you'll know exactly the kind of person to look for.

• Output documents.  After doing the planning groundwork we can develop a detailed job description, define performance requirements and benchmarks, assist in or totally handle the interviewing and the screening process, and more.

In the end, it's about finding just the right person for the job, the work environment and the company as a whole - to avoid the expense and disruption of a square peg in a round hole.
