Wonderlic releases turnkey hiring solution for home healthcare organizations

Wonderlic releases turnkey hiring solution for home healthcare organizations

CHARLESTON, SC – Wonderlic, Inc., a recognized leader in the development of recruiting, assessment and retention solutions, today announced the launch of ASAP for Home Healthcare, its Automated Staff Acquisition Platform that helps home healthcare organizations hire talented employees in less time and with less effort.

Specifically developed for the positions within home healthcare organizations, ASAP for Home Healthcare (http://homehealthcare.wonderlic-asap.com) is a practical, web-based solution that automatically gathers and organizes candidate information, eliminating paperwork and clutter. It objectively evaluates a candidate’s skills and abilities based on the specific position, and presents the results in an intuitive, color-coded format that allows an organization to quickly compare all candidates and select the top few to bring in for interviews. ASAP for Home Healthcare reduces the amount of time managers spend interviewing candidates by as much as 75 percent, and produces significantly better results than interviews alone.

This turnkey solution includes an online job board that allows candidates to apply for positions 24 X 7. The job board is branded for each organization, but hosted on Wonderlic’s servers. There is no need for an organization to make any changes to its website or even have a website. The intuitive interface guides candidates step-by-step through the entire process, gathering critical hiring information in a consistent and legally defensible manner.

“ASAP for Home Healthcare is a comprehensive, easy-to-use hiring platform that significantly reduces the amount of time we have to spend screening applicants,” said Alan Richey, CEO of Piedmont Hospice in Charleston, SC. “The job-related screening questionnaires quickly show whether a candidate has the specific experience we’re looking for. The assessments provide relevant insight about the candidate that you simply don’t get from a resume, which helps us decide whom we want to interview.”

Based on decades of research, Wonderlic is keenly aware of the attributes required for each position within home healthcare organizations and has incorporated this knowledge into a practical and effective solution that is technologically advanced. The service is complete and turnkey, providing job-specific applications, assessments and structured behavioral interview guides for the following positions:

  • Dietitian/Nutritionist
  • Physical Therapist
  • Home Health Aide/Caregiver
  • Physical Therapist Aide
  • Licensed Practical Nurse
  • Physical Therapist Assistant
  • Occupational Therapist
  • Registered Nurse
  • Occupational Therapist Aide
  • Respiratory Therapist
  • Occupational Therapist Assistant
  • Social Worker
  • Office Specialist
  • Speech-Language Pathologist

The ASAP for Home Healthcare solution can be up and running almost immediately.

“We spoke with one company that received an astonishing 138 applications for a front-desk position, creating an enormous burden just to do a cursory review and eliminate the ones that didn’t meet the minimum requirements,” said Wonderlic Market Manager Thomas S. Dittrich. “ASAP for Home Healthcare streamlines the process and lets managers quickly determine which candidates are most likely to succeed before making the first phone call.”
