AC/DC selection method
Hiring new employees or transitioning existing ones into new roles through training can be costly and time-consuming procedures. If the selected candidate leaves the organisation shortly after being hired, it can also result in losses. The AC/DC selection method provides objective feedback on participants\' performance, capabilities, and areas for improvement.
For whom do we recommend the AC/DC selection method?
Originally employed by the U.S. military for officer selection, the AC/DC selection method is recommended for any organisation looking to expand, restructure, hire new personnel, or establish a career framework. Its aim is to ensure confident candidate selection and minimize high turnover rates.
Results of the AC/DC selection method
The person chosen to fill the specific role is the best match for the position, someone the organisation can rely on in the long run. There’s no concern about them leaving shortly after being hired. Their abilities, skills, and personality traits make them an ideal fit for both the organisational culture and the position to be filled. Feedback from our partners indicates that even after 3 years, 90% of employees selected through this process remain with the organisation and achieve success.
