HireBetterNow was formed in 2001 to make The HireBetterNow Hiring System™, which was developed by Charles J Brand, available to contractors all over the North America. His bio is as follows:
Charles J. Brand is a CPA and an attorney. He is a partner in the Newton New Jersey law firm of Dolan & Dolan, P.A. He has over 20 years of experience managing a family owned fuel and HVAC company. He developed The HireBetterNow Hiring System™ to solve an acute technician hiring problem in his own company. This program has been used by HVAC companies around the country to find, hire and train technicians and other employees too.
For years Griffith Energy did what the rest of the industry did to get qualified technicians. We advertised in local newspapers and tried to attract people from other companies. What we found was that we were hiring the problem guys that the other companies were glad to get rid of. And it didn't take long after they were hired to find out why they were available in the first place. The newspapers didn't attract the kind of people were looking for either.
After instituting The HireBetterNow Hiring System™ the first thing that happened is that we began to attract a broader group of applicants than ever before. Then we used the screening tests to find out if they had the attributes we were looking for before hiring them. We tested for mechanical ability before making an investment in someone only to find they didn't have the acumen to learn the skill in the first place. Needless to say the screening methods have made a huge difference in our ability to hire good employees the first time.
Another benefit derived from the program is our present employees now see we have a way to hire people at will. The attitudes have changed now that they know they can be replaced I they don't perform to our standards. What a difference that makes in running our business successfully.
I highly recommend The HireBetterNow Hiring System™ to any company looking to hire good people on an on going basis.

This memo is to put in writing our feelings about your The HireBetterNow Hiring System™. It has proven to be the best way to attract applicants to our company and at that point your system enables us to screen them for attitude and mechanical capability to cut down on the number of candidates we go through to get the right person the first time.
The reference verification system has proven to be invaluable in getting reliable references from previous employers. We've learned that a good employee is always a good employee and a bad one continues to be one. Hiring the wrong person is very costly, time consuming and aggravating.
This program is a very organized and successful approach to the hiring process. Any company looking to hire good people would be well served using this method. It has certainly made a huge difference in the way we go about the hiring process. Highly recommended.
