PHILADELPHIA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 26, 1999--
Employment professionals are well aware of the huge cost of making hiring mistakes.
According to a recent survey of 300 senior management executives, the greatest challenge facing them over the next four years is the lack of skilled workers. Prove It!(TM) Testing Software, developed by Know It All, Inc., prevents hiring mistakes by accurately and objectively assessing the skills of job applicants.
Know It All, Inc. has announced the release of the Prove It! for Microsoft Office 2000 Package. This package contains tests for Word 2000, Excel 2000, and PowerPoint 2000.
These tests are the most recent addition to the Prove It! product line, which contains over 200 titles for testing computer software skills, clerical skills and technical skills. All Prove It! tests evaluate skills in a real-world environment. Users demonstrate their software proficiency by completing tasks in a simulation of the software product being tested.
Prove It! is fully automated, and a testing session can be set up instantly. At the end of the testing session, Prove It! automatically saves and prints the results, providing the company with a thorough printout of the test-taker's skills. The itemized results can be used to match a candidate to a particular job, compare the skills of applicants and/or measure an employee's computer proficiency.
Prove It! tests have helped companies of all sizes find skilled professionals. For instance, Utah-based Nu Skin uses Prove It! tests to pre-screen a variety of different job applicants.
Brenda Comer, Supervisor of Office Administrative Services at Nu Skin states, "The Prove It! testing program has been very useful in our company. We have numerous applicants apply for job openings in our department, and using Prove It! helps us quickly and effectively get the most qualified applicants."
