Entreflow Consulting Group's use of Prevue

This app is really good for anybody who's hiring, this is the tool that you would use to conduct some foreshadowing, where you can figure out what might be some challenges in the future, or figure out some really strong skills that a person has that they might be short selling themselves on.
Pros
There's a lot that we love; Prevue is a psychometric testing app that you can use to test any new candidates, and as well your existing team. The best feature is that you can actually create your own benchmarking that is very specific to the role that you're hiring.
Some of their other top features are that it's a reasonably short survey, so it's not something that's going to throw off candidates if they have to sit and spend a whole hour doing a test, it's quite quick to get through. They have their own standard benchmarking within the tool, but you can create your own and you can get your team to do it and create a benchmark based off of what your team is looking for. What’s really cool about this is that if you take something like an accountant role, if you were to take the standard benchmarking, your typical accountant might be a little bit more self-focused in their work and they might not be collaborating with other team members as much. Most accountants, people typically think are not as client facing, or independent workers. However, for Entreflow our accountants need to be client facing, they need to be well-versed with technology, and they also need to work collaboratively in a team. So we are able to create a benchmark for our instance of an accountant; what we want to have for an accountant versus what a typical accountant role might look like.
Cons
I don't think we actually have any. This app does what it needs to do, it's really easy to use. From an implementation perspective it's easy peasy so you actually get a dedicated implementation team that helps you to get it all set up and then as well that it helps you with the benchmarking if you need it.

It had bene wonderful, can't beat the price, cant beat the customer service, can't beat the validity and reliability, can't beat how custom it is to what we as a company are looking for!
Pros
I love how custom it is, how it conveniently can be sent online and that it holds a record of each candidate. I really love that our company culture is baked in with the benchmarks, and it is so awesome that they continue to improve and add new features! For example, the only thing missing for us was ana ctual culture fit assessment, and they are releasing one! Before that, they released the assessment for integrity and work ethic which is another thing it was missing when shopping around (so it has all the things that the other ones mightve had a leg up on them with - so officially theyre the best. Especially when you consider the validity and accuracy of the type of psychometric test they use (big 5, whereas other ones like DISC just don't have the same scientific backing)
Cons
Sometime the portal is a little clunky. They do fix the bugs quick though. I do sometimes get logged out without it telling me, so no names come up in the search. I then think they didn't do it and resend the link (though now I refresh and re-sign in to ensure they won't come up after that (they often do! It only takes a sec). I think a "We logged you out" screen would help this!
Reasons for Switching to Prevue Assessments
Anything that prevue was missing wasn't as important to us as what these ones were missing. Validity and reliability were key, and the psychometric testing prevue uses is proven to be the most valid/accurate/reliable/and consistent over time. The price also was way better! They have tons of report types. And they continue to develop such that anything it was missing a year or so ago when we got it, it now has! (Work ethic/integrity reports, Culture match reports, even custom reports we can use for skills testing whereas before we would have people do it through email!)- Industry: Food Production

I've really enjoyed working with Prevue. From the intake sales calls to implementation and execution, they are top-tier professionals who dive into the weeds to ensure you are confident in the system your providing.
Pros
We selected Prevue because of the level of customization and the individualized support. You can really cater the assessments to what your organization is looking for at the role level and we sincerely appreciate how they walk you through that.
Cons
Our contract does not include Skills Assessments, which would have been nice to be thrown in but not a deal breaker!

Pros
I like the user friendly platform. Its easy for our candidates to access and get questions based on the assessment for continued interview process. I really like that we can bench against our other team members to get more accurate fit for the company.
Cons
Sometimes when people start the assessment they can't get back in without us resending it. Would like the length of it be shortened if possible down to 15-20 mintues.

Cons
Mainly the cost, plan options are limited. Since we are such a small group it would be cost effective for us to limit certain features available on Prevue in order to reduce annual cost.

Our company was hiring for a top management position. All candidates got and took a Prevue Assessment. After interviews, but before we looked at the Prevue results, the [sensitive content hidden] and I named the candidate that we wanted to offer the position to. We then looked at their score, which showed a few discrepancies: areas that were important to us, but that the candidate lacked. We got on the phone with the [sensitive content hidden] of his previous position who confirmed during the conversation what the Prevue Assessment told us about this candidate. Needless to say, it saved us from making a wrong hire!

I've moved to just the quick survey by the manager in the position to set it up as they just do not have the time to take the longer pre-assessment to help build them prior to assigning them to applicants.
Pros
We like the ability to gain insight into our applicants. It helps us gain a more holistic picture along with their application/resume when deciding who we would like to interview for the position.It is also a helpful tool to use when working on team building and trying to better understand how each of us works and communicates.
Cons
The tests are often difficult, long/time consuming, intimidating, etc. which has made some of our executive team question if we need the assessments in our recruitment process. I've countered with the benefits, but we may just start using them for high-level positions.
Response from Prevue HR Systems

We were able to quickly and effectively screen for a general technical aptitude level without implementing a highly complex or costly solution. It was a successful implementation into the assessments for our high volume candidates.
Pros
The demo and customer support team at setup was fantastic, understanding our needs and highlighting a few viable options for our assessment requirements. It was very easily and quickly implemented for use within our team. The pricing was extremely competitive and not being required to have a bigger enterprise style agreement in place was key to getting exactly what we needed implemented at the top of our process.
Cons
The lack of customizability in the actual assessments was a small drawback. There were some non-significant detail fields in our data-entry assessment that it would have been nice to swap out. US addresses for Canadian addresses for example.

Reviewed on 2022/10/20
Pros
We use Prevue in our recruitment and selection process mainly, firstly to narrow down job applicants and create a shortlist aligned to the role benchmarks and lastly to assess personality and team fit when we approach final interviews. The platform is very easy to use and the reports are easy to interpret. I like the updated interface of Prevue and find it easier to navigate. The support has also been fantastic, from initial onboarding to the ongoing support and check ins.
Cons

I've been using Prevue for over six (6) years, as a super administrator on the account. Having gone through my third full-cycle implementation recently, I can say with confidence that Prevue has really augmented their customer success game over the last few years, which had led to increased adoption, and anticipation of using the product across the entire organization.
The validity and accuracy the platform produces have won over hiring managers who have traditionally been skeptical about like-products. The overall ease of use and ability to establish job-specific benchmarks within a few minutes has become invaluable. I just can't imagine my full-cycle talent acquisition function without Prevue.
Pros

Excellent support for administrators, end-users, and customers/candidates.

Prevue Assessments helped me to thoroughly assess an applicant before accepting him or her for the next step. It has taken a quarter of my tasks and made my life somehow easier and faster. The ability to compare candidates is such an amazing feature. With its skill testing feature, it can easily assess an applicant, allowing me to determine traits which are applicable to our company.

When you put in 'from' date for looking at history of tests taken it sorts immediately before you get a chance to put in the second date and then push search.
