Company culture is an important part of a company’s success, so hiring a candidate that adapts well is important. According to a study by Harvard Business School, attitude accounts for 93 percent of a person’s success in a position. Hiring a candidate with a good attitude and willingness to learn helps ensure that they will adapt well to the established company culture. Staffing agencies screen employees with questionnaires and interviews to ensure they have the right skills for a position in addition to being a good cultural fit.

Understanding Cultural Fit

Cultural fit refers to a candidate’s attitude, beliefs, and behaviors aligning with the company to which they’re applying. A good cultural fit means that a candidate can seamlessly integrate themselves into a work environment while positively contributing to productivity as well as the overall goals of a team.

Knowledge of the Company

If a staffing agency has worked with a company and has an established relationship with them, they will already understand the culture well. Staff Solve’s experts work closely with employers to understand exactly what they are looking for in a candidate. Staff Solve knows the Houston job market well and works to understand the cultural dynamic of top companies. Staff Solve’s team of experts goes above and beyond to ensure that they understand the company dynamic to find a candidate that will be the right fit.

Detailed Interviews

Just like an interview done with a company, Staff Solve’s talented team asks detailed questions to get a sense of an employee’s work ethic. They may ask questions about how a candidate handles conflict or whether they enjoy working in a team as opposed to working individually. A company may look for someone who is able to adapt to either working style, and staffing agencies are there to find a candidate that will fit their needs.

Assessments

Staff Solve offers over 200 skills assessments and five language efficiency exams to assess every candidate’s skill set. In a city as diverse as Houston, having a specific skill set or being bilingual could be a factor in adapting to the company culture and seamlessly stepping into a role. Staff Solve administers these tests to take the stress of the hiring process off of employers.

All in all, employers can have confidence that Staff Solve will find a candidate for the position that will not only have the necessary skills, but is able to adapt to the company culture as well.
