February 2, 2018 – VuePoint IDS is pleased to announce the launch of Eyeployment.com; an advanced online hiring service that incorporates predictive analytics to help eye care professionals choose the best employees for specific roles in their practice.

Eyeployment.com is powered by Fit First Technologies Inc.’s TalentSorter engine. For over more than a decade, Fit First Technologies has helped hundreds of employers screen well over three million candidates for their likely fit in the role they have applied to. The service partners with the world’s largest job board, by offering one click SEO-optimized distribution through Indeed.com Employers may also increase their visibility on Indeed directly through the eyeployment.com website. Additionally, jobs can be posted to the practice Facebook page and website with a few simple clicks.

Each role specific to eye care practices has been assessed to determine which characteristics are key to success. The TalentSorter assessment tool will measure the likely fit of the applicant against these characteristics and determine a FitScore™.

Eyeployment.com‘s user-friendly dashboard allows simple triage of inbound candidates, saving time for the employer in deciding which candidates to pursue. Results of each assessment are summarized in an easy-to-read Job Fit report. An Interview Guideline for each candidate is provided to help the hiring manager pinpoint areas for further evaluation of candidates.

“Staffing is amongst the greatest challenges facing Eye Care Professionals. There is no stand-alone resource for ECPs that combines job posting, candidate assessment and applicant management in one simple-to-use, affordable solution. We are pleased to collaborate with Fit First Technologies to make this advanced technology available to eye care professionals looking to hire great staff,” said David Pietrobon, President of VuePoint IDS Inc.

“We are excited about this partnership with VuePoint, which allows us to offer our depth of experience in the matching of the right people to the right jobs, to industry professionals across North America through VuePoint’s network of trusted relationships,” said Jan G. van der Hoop, President of Fit First Technologies Inc. “This truly is one of those rare occasions where all concerned (industry professionals, those considering the industry, and employers) benefit directly.”

The science of psychometric assessment of candidates is proven to help businesses reduce time spent sorting resumes by 80%, reduce interview time by 70% and reduce costly turnover by 40-50%. Eyeployment.com makes this advanced technology, widely used by Fortune 500 companies, available to eye care practices at a very reasonable cost.

Eyeployment.com is available to both Canadian and US practitioners and is priced accordingly in Canadian and US currency. For more information on the service and the science behind it, visit the site at eyeployment.com.
