After you’ve read the application form, you really do need to check the skills

I feel I must share with you some of the results of the tests we receive back from “transcriptionists” looking to work with us. 

I have already posted on our website details of the lengths we go to to make sure that we recruit only the best people who have the characteristics we feel are best suited to working autonomously for our clients.  If you haven’t yet read the case study, a link is here

Our online application form acts as a filtering system for the “wrong” type of person applying to work with us.  Before we take any application further we also make sure that they can read, write and spell business English.  Occasionally I am appalled and shocked at the standard of some of the documents returned back to me.  Firstly, because it is obvious they don’t understand what an apostrophe is and, secondly, they don’t have the commonsense to figure out a way of cheating on my document.

Here’s a completed test which was received by me today.  CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD WORD DOCUMENT.  If you’re involved in recruitment you might find this test document useful too.

Interesting? Useful? Why not share it!
