Call center problems

Call Center Problems, Solved

Call center challenges facing managers range from absenteeism and agent turnover to ever higher expectations from both customers and company executives. They have to improve first-call resolution rates and customer satisfaction on tighter and tighter budgets. And the surest way to meet those benchmarks is through successful call center recruiting strategies and agent retention. Find out how Hire Success® can help solve your call center problems quickly and efficiently with its comprehensive hiring system.

Baseline personality profile feature for Hire Success

Improve first-call resolution and call center retention with skills and personality testing

With Hire Success®, you can test job candidates for basic skills or customize your own test such as for specific software. But to maintain a good FCR rate and improve call center retention, you need agents who have the right personality for customer service. Our system can help you identify those qualities and then give all applicants a personality test so you can find the best fit.

call center candidate pipeline

Cut down on time and administrative burden with an automated candidate pipeline

With Hire Success® hiring campaigns, applicants can be moved from branded job site to application to call center pre-employment testing automatically, with assessment results delivered immediately. Top job candidates will be automatically flagged and can be easily compared and shortlisted. And multiple reports can be shared with coworkers on any internet-connected device.

call center recruiting strategies for reducing absenteeism

Reduce call center absenteeism and fraud

People who are right for a job will be happier employees and more likely to show up and work hard. Our Personality Profile can help you determine whether your job candidates have the necessary qualities for a high-pressure customer-facing role. And with the Integrity Survey, you'll also be able to flag any potential problems, like a propensity toward fraud or violence.

call center skills test

Boost agent engagement with detailed test reports

Call center pre-employment testing isn't only useful for hiring; it's also an effective management tool. If you know that an agent's basic skills are lacking in an area, you can make sure they get the training they need right away. And you can use the reports from an agent's pre-employment personality test to learn things like how they like to work and get feedback.

Hire Success® Pre-Employment Tests for Call Centers

Hire Success® offers multiple pre-employment tests that can be incorporated into call center recruiting strategies. All can help you confidently narrow your list of applicants and improve the quality of your interviews. Plus, you have the option to create your own custom call center skills test, including proficiency exams on software that your call center agents will be expected to know.
