According to a Brandon-Hall research brief commissioned by Glassdoor, 95% of employers surveyed admitted to making hiring mistakes by recruiting the wrong people each year. A recent CareerBuilder study puts that number at 74%.

Studies across industries show that a mis-hire can cost your company many times the candidate’s salary, damage the team dynamics and derail commercial success.
