Challenges

Sales Skills Screening

C12 successfully screened for cultural fit but lacked a robust method to assess dynamic sales skills critical for achieving their strategic goals.

Generic Hiring Processes

Their one-size-fits-all hiring approach failed to meet the unique demands of recruiting effective sales-oriented business coaches.

Need for External Expertise

Recognizing these shortcomings, C12 sought external guidance to refine their hiring strategies and better identify sales competencies in candidates.

Solutions

Tailored Hiring Framework

Topaz introduced the Metahire sales process, customizing it to integrate seamlessly with C12’s existing procedures. This minimized disruption and maximized hiring efficiency.

Enhanced Competency Screening

We implemented a pre-hire sales assessment tool to evaluate potential sales aptitude among candidates, enriching the quality of C12’s interview processes.

Sales Competency Training

Our team trained C12’s hiring staff to accurately identify essential sales competencies, craft insightful interview questions, and debunk common hiring myths, ensuring a more informed and effective selection process.

"Selling something they hadn’t sold before required skills that we weren’t effectively identifying in our hiring process.”
