In Retail and Service, turnover is a fact of life. But with HigherMe, it doesn’t have to be a problem.
HigherMe uses data and video to help Retail and Service employers find the best employees, faster. The HigherMe Recruitment platform helps managers find, screen, and interview candidates in minutes instead of hours.
How do we do this?
HigherMe uses 30-second videos to showcase a candidate's personality, attitude, and interpersonal skills. Our data-driven [behavioral and psychological] matching algorithms make sure that the candidates you see are the best available. Period.
HigherMe: Manage your business, not turnover.
