For employers
Say Goodbye to Bad Hires and Wasted Time.
Talent Select uses personality and aptitude assessments, including the OPI, to match the right candidate to your open role, so you spend less time interviewing the wrong people and more time growing your business.
The real cost
A Bad Hire Costs Far More Than the Salary You Agreed.
Put in the salary you are planning to offer and see the range a mis-hire typically works out at, before recruitment starts.
Commonly cited at 3-5x annual salary across recruiting industry research. The three estimates below update as you type.
Conservative estimate
€150,000
3x annual salary
Recruitment spend, notice periods, and the ramp-up time you never get back.
Typical estimate
€200,000
4x annual salary
Add management time, retraining, and the drag on the wider team.
Severe estimate
€250,000
5x annual salary
Client damage, missed targets, and knock-on turnover in senior or revenue-facing roles.
Lost Productivity
Months of ramp-up time before a mis-hire is recognised and addressed.
Team Disruption
Remaining team members absorb the gap, risking burnout and turnover of their own.
Recruitment Costs
Agency fees, advertising, and interview time, all paid again when the role is re-filled.
Client & Revenue Impact
Delayed work, missed targets, and strain on client relationships in the meantime.
These are the costs that rarely appear on a hiring budget: the quarter lost to ramp-up, the second recruitment round, and the workload that lands on everyone else in the meantime. A structured assessment step is a small fraction of that range.
This is the exact cost Talent Select's assessments are built to avoid. See how the OPI helps you get it right the first time.
Why it works
Resumes and Interviews Only Tell Half the Story.
Traditional hiring leans hard on things that don't actually predict performance: how polished someone's CV looks, how well they perform under interview-room pressure, or plain unconscious bias. Talent Select's assessments focus on what actually matters, a candidate's qualifications, personality, and working style, so the best-fit candidate rises to the top, not just the best interviewer.
Features & benefits
Save Time & Money
Fewer rounds of interviews, fewer costly mis-hires, less time re-training and re-hiring for the same seat.
Discover Your Ideal Candidate
Talent Select works with you to define exactly what your ideal candidate looks like, qualifications, personality, and working style, before a single assessment is run.
Match Candidates to the Role
Every candidate is measured against your ideal profile, so you're comparing apples to apples instead of gut feelings.
A Fairer Process, By Design.
Because assessments score candidates on job-relevant traits rather than background, appearance, or personal rapport, you get a defensible, bias-resistant selection process, one that holds up to scrutiny, and gives every candidate a genuinely fair shot.
