FOT Note – Welcome to “No Scrubs,” a new monthly video series we’re kicking off in conjunction with the good folks at Chequed.com. This is the only show on the web that’s 100% dedicated to exploring every pre–hire tool and trick available to keep bad hires out of your company.
Kicking off this month at the “No Scrubs” Series, Dawn Burke chats via video with Jason Lauritsen, Director of Best Places To Work at Quantum Workplace on the benefits of using assessments to hire top talent.
