Skip the assessment and you're gambling
Why a CV only tells you half the story, and how a DISC analysis replaces gut-feel with something you can actually build on.
Honest opinion: if you’re not using an assessment when hiring, you’re basically gambling. 🎲
I get it. You have a stack of CVs on your desk. You scan them for experience, education, and the right keywords. You invite the “best” five. And a few months later it turns out the perfect candidate doesn’t fit the team at all.
Sound familiar? That’s because a CV tells you precisely nothing about someone’s natural way of operating.
The hard numbers for the Dutch market
- 25% of new hires leave again within 12 months.
- In 9 out of 10 cases that’s down to behaviour or the fit with the team — not a lack of skills.
- A bad hire costs an SMB an average of €45,000 to €50,000.
And yet 80% of SMBs still decide purely on paper. That’s like buying a car without a test drive. 🚗
What a DISC analysis actually solves
A DISC analysis gives you, in ten minutes:
- How someone really communicates.
- How they react to stress.
- Whether they genuinely fit the feel of your team.
We make DISC a standard part of Selectify — not an extra, but the foundation. Because we believe a good match goes far beyond a polished CV. 💙
I still hear recruiters say: “I trust my gut.” Gut feel isn’t a strategy — data about behaviour is. 📊
