HSBC Leverages PeopleAnswers' Hiring Technology to Increase Sales by 21% in its Branch Locations
Dallas, TX (PRWEB) May 2, 2008 -- HSBC, one of the largest banking and financial services organizations in the world, has been using PeopleAnswers, a leader in next-generation, web-based hiring technology, to provide pre-employment selection software to HSBC's consumer lending division. Historical analysis of thousands of new HSBC Account Executives indicates that, over the first eight months in their position, employees who were "Recommended" by PeopleAnswers originated 21% more sales revenue than Account Executives who were not assessed.
Account Executives in over 1,300 HSBC branch locations across the United States have the primary responsibilities of initiating loan sales while providing great customer service. HSBC selected the PeopleAnswers solution to improve performance and retention in this front-line position.
In the initial stage of the engagement, PeopleAnswers worked closely with HSBC to build an objective Performance Profile? that clearly identified the unique behavioral traits that contribute most strongly to the success of HSBC's existing top Account Executives.
Once the Performance Profile was designed, HSBC inserted PeopleAnswers' software into the first stage of the hiring process to automatically assess Account Executive candidates against that job profile. Candidates closely matching the profile were identified as "Recommended" to HSBC managers and recruiters. During their first year, these "Recommended" new hires produced 21% more sales volume than their non-assessed counterparts in the same position.
Gabriel Goncalves, President and CEO of PeopleAnswers, was pleased with the real-world results generated by his company's cutting-edge technology: "Our software solution is perfectly positioned to help large corporations improve performance in virtually any functional area," says Goncalves. "In this case, HSBC successfully leveraged the technology to increase the quality of hire for their Account Executive position. Making better hiring decisions translated to employees who produced 21% more sales dollars, which is an incredible financial win for HSBC."

Using Online Health Resources To Lose Weight
Many diets begin with a plan but that paper must have been thrown in the trash because no weight loss occurred. People have found that utilizing online health resources to lose weight works better because the weight loss plans are stored on a web page and not kept in plain view on a counter. People are able to create forms using the personal computer too and this works well too, if nobody else has access to it. Using online health resources such as this makes better sense to dieters who are serious about losing weight.

The Basics Of Starting An Online Business (Part 2)
There is much more to starting an online business than just having a product to sell and setting up a website. In order to turn this into a profitable business, you have to reach the customers. This means that you have to rank high in the search engines - at least in the top 20. If you are wondering why this is so, just think of the many times you searched for something on the Internet. How often did you continue pages the first two screens of results? If you are like most searchers, if you don't find what you are looking for in the first two pages, you try another search term.
