Thank you for sharing your feedback about your experience with our selection process. While you did not interview with vCom, your perspective is still valuable for future candidates to consider. To complete the picture for those that may read your review, we would like to provide additional clarity on our process and the reason behind our decision to decline your candidacy.
At vCom, we place a high priority on creating a healthy culture, one that is made up of team players that are a blend of hungry, humble, smarts and people-smarts.
The Wonderlic assessment helps us gauge cognitive ability, motivation, and personality factors. The Predictive Index helps us understand the behavior profile of the candidate. Both assessments are job-specific and are not pass/fail, but instead they are a supplement to our interview process and enable us to increase the likelihood of making a successful hire.
Each application/resume we receive is reviewed by a human and only those candidates selected for further consideration are invited to complete our assessments. For candidates applying to open roles, the assessments are a lead-in to the first phone screen with HR, meaning once you complete the assessments you'll be scheduled for the phone screen. After a successful HR phone screen, the candidate's complete profile is shared with the hiring manager for consideration.
Our process is designed to be applied consistently across all candidates considered regardless of their level of experience. We provided explanation and more than one opportunity for this candidate to opt-in to our process. It became clear that this individual was seeking an exception to be made solely on the basis of their experience-level and we weren't able to accommodate that exception out of a commitment to keeping our process fair to those candidates that have completed the assessments in advance of a phone screen as requested.
