Hiring and retaining quality employees is a critical component of a successful business. Accurate Resource Group, Inc. has been helping companies in Central Massachusetts achieve success in recruiting and hiring the right people for the past 20 years. According to a SHRM (The Society for Human Resource Management) study, the top three people-related human resource issues facing CEO’s are retaining talent, attracting talent with critical skills and improving workplace performance. Accurate Resource Group works with clients in all these key areas.
Accurate’s unique partnership approach in meeting its clients’ human resource challenges is what sets the firm apart from others in the staffing industry, according to Kathy Barron, company founder and chief executive.
"We provide much more than staffing, headhunting or temporary employees," Barron says. "We’re an extension of our clients’ human resources departments. We act as human resource consultants and as a clearinghouse for important and up-to-date information on economic, salary and hiring trends. We also assist companies to hire and grow top performers".
According to Barron, the three top "people problems" companies have today include: limited top performers, incompatibility with either culture or personality fit and dishonesty, including incompatible priorities. "Our company has resources to assist in these key areas," she adds.
Accurate now offers a hiring assessment tool to its clients, which identifies core competencies that become a benchmark for measuring potential new hires.
The need for hiring tools is critical. Barron notes research showing that two-thirds of employees will not be top performers within the first 12 months and that one-third to one-half of all resumes contain omissions and misrepresentations. "The interview process only uncovers the tip of the iceberg," she says. "Our assessment tool helps companies discover the entire picture."
An important component to the success of hiring assessments is providing quality candidates. Barron points to her company’s 20-year record of finding the best candidates to meet client needs.
Founded as a staffing firm, Accurate Resource Group quickly expanded to include direct placement services and now provides a wide range of human resource services. These include: pc computer training, image consulting, outplacement services, and human resource consulting/outsourcing.
Accurate Resource Group has several divisions: Accurate Staffing Services, Accurate Technology Services and Accurate Legal Services, which provide professional staff for law firms, accounting firms, medical and accounting offices, office administration, and sales departments and divisions.
For clients experiencing a steady but not sustained growth, Accurate Resource Group can supply key contractors, enabling the company to keep its staff to a minimum while enhancing the bottom line.
Accurate Resource Group’s image consulting services have been used by clients to educate employees on dressing for success. Barron also helped the chief executive of a $40 million IT company burnish his image in preparation for expansion into international markets.
"Our clients are companies with high expectations that demand value for their dollars," Barron says. "We specialize in meeting and exceeding those expectations."
