ProveIt! Testing and Assessments Lower Clients' Costs

(May 24, 2004) - MAU, Inc., a full service-provider of human resource, staffing, recruiting and outsourcing services, announced today that they have begun using a new comprehensive employee assessment and evaluation service. The service is designed to lower a clients cost of staffing for direct hire, projects, and contracts.

It has been estimated by the Telecom Training Group that a new hire can cost from $5,000 to $50,000 in the first six months. According to the Workplace Resource Learning Center, if a new hire must be replaced, it can cost a company between $14,000 and $66,000.

"As a major resource for staffing and hiring, we wanted to utilize the best evaluation and assessment program we could in order to help companies make the best hiring choices possible," said Randy Hatcher, President of MAU, Inc. "Our clients must have partner vendors that can help them maintain a competitive cost position. Our new testing systems allow them to lower the risk of these increased costs due to poor hiring choices and turnover."

"The new, state-of-the art web-based testing system called ProveIt! provides an amazingly thorough range of tests, and can be accessed in several languages," stated MAU, Inc. Office Services Manager Susan Kitchens. "Our office and medical clients like this program because it gives them fast and comprehensive reports from a full-range of very specific quality assessments and allows accurate and efficient testing for their continually changing needs. This new system is equally helpful and productive for applicants because they are able to take the tests from any on-line location at any time of day (after regular business hours, at job fairs, etc.) as well as in their local MAU office. In addition, ProveIt! tests are less time consuming and much easier and user-friendly for applicants to comprehend."

MAU, Inc. can now utilize the ProveIt! System to administer over 800 tests covering a broad range of categories. The categories include such business functions as accounting, call center, finance, healthcare (both medical office and licensed patient care positions), industrial, legal, IT/technical, computer software and more. In addition to the comprehensive testing, the ProveIt! System offers tutorial software for Microsoft Office applications and Peachtree Accounting.
