PREDICTIVE PROFILES Recruiting for Your Business
By: Jeanne Smith, Mr. Appliance® Franchise Consultant
Predictive Profiles is pretty cool. I am not wasting my time any longer. If candidates don’t bother to complete the short application on www.applyatmrappliance.com for me, they are not worth my time. If you have not tried it, you are missing out. Read the whole report Predictive Profiles gives you on a candidate. It gives me a great starting point for interviews.” – Scott Worden, Mr. Appliance® of Annapolis and Salisbury. Spring is here and summer coming. We tend to see uptakes in calls for appliance repair service. I know most of you are always recruiting. It’s part of our business model. We have a great tool available to you that assists you: Predictive Profiles. Have you enrolled in it? Now is the time. You need to be ready to recruit even more wisely to have the right techs/ CSRs in place to service your customers as the busy season approaches. You are investing money to make the phone ring. It makes sense to invest to get the qualified candidates you are looking for, and to save your time as well. As Chuck Brady, Mr. Appliance of Pasco County, put it, I get immediate basic screening up front and all information on the application clearly written out. I pay special attention to the key indicators of potential job performance. It’s a complete readable application for me to be able to take the next step with the applicant.” Here is how it works: All franchise locations and jobs are listed on the career portal website at www.applyatmrappliance.com, so candidates can apply 24/7 to any location. There is nothing that a franchise owner has to do to be included on the website because it is already done. When an applicant applies, the franchise owner receives an email notification. If they are not yet subscribed to view their database of applicants, they can just click on the link in the email and sign up. You can also find the sign up page on the support site at mrappliance.predictiveprofiles.com under the “sign up” tab.
Once an owner signs up using a credit card, you will have full access to the database unless you choose to unsubscribe because you are not hiring. In that case, we still continue to collect applications on your behalf, but you will not be charged. When you sign up, it is a monthly recurring charge of $25.00 or a flat yearly fee of $290.00. You can always tell us you want to discontinue to stop being charged, but then you won’t have access to their database.
I highly recommend that the web address of applyatmrappliance.com be added NOW to every place you post for techs, office staff. It makes sense to have one place to review all your information on potential interested candidates who really want to be part of your team. Get signed up at Predictive Profiles NOW so that when those email alerts come to you, you will be fully ready to read the whole report and determine who to contact for your interview process.
