PreVisor Awarded Patent for Web-based Pre-Hire Assessment System

The leader in talent measurement delivers innovative system that predicts candidate job performance and retention

(PRWEB) February 3, 2010 -- PreVisor, the global leader in employment assessments and talent measurement solutions that connect employment decisions to business results, was awarded U.S. patent number 7,606,778 (http://bit.ly/3aH9C8) on October 20, 2009. The patent reinforces the company’s commitment to innovation and validates an internet based assessment system utilizing statistical correlations with rankings to assess a job applicant’s probability of performing successfully and reducing the turnover potential.

The PreVisor patent covers online testing technology which delivers assessments over the internet; predicts both an applicant’s job performance and turnover potential; and provides employers with real-time scoring and rank ordering of applicants for a particular job.

The patent announcement follows a series of technology innovation awards for PreVisor products over the past 18 months, and is yet another indicator of the company’s leadership stance on talent measurement innovation. Earlier this month it was announced that PreVisor received the highly coveted M. Scott Myers award from the Society for Industrial & Organizational Psychology (SIOP) in recognition of their work developing and validating computer adaptive personality assessments. In September, PreVisor was recognized by Human Resource Executive Magazine with a Top Product of the Year Award (http://www.previsor.com/news/press/2009-HR-product-of-the-year) for their Front Line Manager solution. In January 2009, the PreVisor Contact Center Solution (http://www.previsor.com/news/press/poty) won the 2008 Product of the Year from Customer Interaction Solutions Magazine. In late 2008, PreVisor also received the 2008 Game Changing Recruiting Technology (http://www.previsor.com/news/press/changing) for its computer adaptive platform from Online Recruitment Magazine.

“We are very pleased by this recognition from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for the design of our assessment delivery system. PreVisor has invested a great deal of time and effort unifying the best-in-class originating test companies including Qwiz, ePredix, Personnel Decisions Research Institutes (PDRI), and Brainbench onto a single platform. We have been and continue to be dedicated to driving innovation in the talent measurement arena,” stated Noel Sitzmann, CEO of PreVisor. “This award, as well as other awards from distinguished organizations, represents the continued recognition of our efforts and is gratefully received.”
