The hiring process is broken.  Whether you are hiring or
looking for a job, the process is time consuming, costly
and prone to error.  The primary reasons are:
Read and continually learn
Think critically and solve problems
Be self-directed
Ability to work in a team
Persevere through obstacles and adversity
  • there are not enough knowledge-based
    workers to fill all of the jobs
  • the Internet has triggered  an overload of
    resumes
  • increased diversity in the candidate pool  has
    increased the challenge of objectively
    evaluating candidates
  • interviews have an inherent "like me" bias,
    which work against change
  • most companies have limited HR staff to
    manage the hiring process
Adage Solutions provides a new yardstick that can
determine whether a candidate "has the right stuff".  The
yardstick measures a candidates' abilities to:
High Impact Player:   Active
participants that make a strong
and immediate effect on the
organization through the efficient
and effective fulfillment of their
role.  They are perceived as a
valuable organizational asset

HIP Assessment: a new objective
yardstick that measures a
candidate's abilities to -
"Identifying People with the Right Stuff"
Think - Initiate - Execute
