How Good is Your Gut?

Our Perceptions:
In a recent poll of HR professionals, 57% felt that they could “read between the lines” to detect suitable hires.
 In a similar poll of HR professionals, 72% believed conscientiousness is a better predictor of job performance than intelligence.
 Those outside of HR generally view interviews more favorably than objective tests, and expert judgment over mechanical decision making algorithms.

The Real Deal



Research has shown people correctly detect truth/lies about 54% of the time—not much better than chance
54% of the time—not much better than chance
Considerable evidence shows that in general intelligence out‐predicts conscientiousness
According to research:

Aptitude tests alone better predict college performance than aptitude tests and rater interviews combined. In other words, i l di

So What Can We Trust?



Reliability: The consistency of your measurement, or the degree to which an instrument measures the same way each time it is used under the same condition with the same subjects. Validity: the strength of our conclusions, inferences or propositions. In short, were we right?
You need both!
Reliability
Validity
Our Target!

What About Experts?

Does this mean we don’t need experts?

Of course not!

Experts are made, not born

Coupled with objective data, expert opinion can be of great value – it’s about building your knowledge base first to enable smart decision making

Hiring Right helps ensure you make effective decisions
