Client Testimonials
Thank you John! I'm so happy to have Vicki on board. She called over 100 open leads in her first week. Surely some of them will work out. She and I had one sales call with someone I know, and it went verywell. She and Kelvin had several team sales calls.
Working with Keyline Company for the search of new employees changed the process from guessing to selecting with confidence. Their rigorous screening process passed along only the most qualified applicants, saving us time and aggravation. In addition John Mathis's insight about the personalities of our staff continues to be a benefit to our company.
I used John for all my important hiring decisions at my previous job. His approach is unique, not the typical headhunter. The next time you are in need, (or actually before you have a need, interview John) think about trying a different approach.
The part of benchmarking I find the most useful is the ability to compare the applicant's assessment responses to our benchmark priorities for the position. While the benchmark report provides a set of interview questions which are helpful, people can say anything in an interview. The reports however, give an objective way of evaluating a candidate's "fit" to the position requirements.
A note of thanks for all your efforts these past couple of years. You have opened our eyes to lots of amazing things. Its people like you that make us better.
Your entire process is working really well for us, and I am happy to talk with Remodeling Magazine about it. Mike is fitting in nicely as Marketing Communications Director. He's easy to work with.
The new guys are terrific. I will be glad to recommend your services to dealers that I don't compete with.
I am very happy with Keyline Company in helping Sea Pointe find a new Sales Manager. As a new position for our company you helped us define the job, brought us 5 or 6 pre screened candidates and guided us to our final selection. All this in a quarter of the time it would have taken us to do it our selves. Our new Sales Manager is working out great. Thanks for a great job!
We are interested in using your services again. I have to admit that you hit the nail on the head with our last hire. To make a long story short, you told us that she would be more interested in the people than in the work. Boy were you right, so we are looking for her replacement.
Please let me know what we need to do to start the process.
Your presentation at our Winters Winners' Conference was an overwhelming success! You not only inspired so many people but you provided them with immediate take-home value. Please accept my heartfeld gratitude for sharing your talents and enthusiasm.
You have an excellent newsletter. It is content filled, very interesting to read and motivational. Thank you, for putting me on your list. I look forward to the next issue.
Things are going very well, by the way. Our team refers to you by name often (usually without cursing, too!!). You've been the impetus for some interesting change over the past few weeks. Holding people accountable is our biggest challenge and we are putting some tools in place to do just that. It's pretty exciting. Thanks again for everything.
We are pleased that you accepted our invitation to participate as one of the presenters at the TTI Winter Winner's Conference 2003. You were individually selected for your expertise in TTI products, your professionalism, and the unique "value add" that you deliver with your TTI solutions. You have earned our confidence and we believe your message is important to your fellow TTI Distributors. Thank you for sharing it with them!
I think I can speak for the team when I say that your work with Dennis has saved us (his value is great, and his new attitude is a model to the rest of the team), and your teaching around the use of our diverse behaviors in the team (especially using Ken's natural enthusiasm) has helped to redirect the focus our energies. All of us have value in our behaviors, and the discovery of this has just begun! This is a much happier team that it used to be.
I am going to be out of the country for the next two weeks but when I get back, we will reschedule out meeting. We did have our team presentation and everything went very well. I am confident your interactions with our team are largely responsible for our success with this meeting. I am looking forward to working with you more in the coming year.
It has been a year since we began working with your firm. I must say my company has made a very big improvement in hiring the right people for the job. John, the training that you have given my management team and me has increased our odds dramatically to having the right people in the right jobs. It also has helped us to communicate better with each employee.
When I approached you for help last year, I was extremely frustrated with our inability to turn around a continuing problem of high turnover and poor productivity on our night shift. None of the traditional methods HR types employ such as exercising more care in the hiring process and putting a greater emphasis on training seemed to have any effect. Since implementing your program however, we have seen the following results, some of which have been quite dramatic.
You gave a superb presentation to our Roundtable group! I am so appreciative and I do see how you have a mission as well as a career. With what our members received and learned, they have the potential to truly turn their lives and businesses around and make their abilities work for them.
Just a quick note to let you know how helpful I have found the Keyline Program since I was first exposed to it six months ago. We have used it, very successfully, to assist us in screening and evaluating candidates for employment, and to have a much better understanding of my own Leadership style. This is the first time in 15 years of managing I have received information I can use to be a better manager. I have used the program to favorable resolve some of the interpersonal conflicts and problems that arise regularly in business.
The program gives my people the opportunity to talk about my company with someone outside of the company. They look forward to your visits.
I would recommend the program to anyone, for any type of business, large or small, as the ideas, the concepts that can be, and are, very beneficial to anyone
If any middle manager would like to know how important this program is, ask him to call me.
I dread the thought of leaving this company to work somewhere else without this program. I know I could get the 'people' information I need but it would take much longer.
The key word for me for your program is 'focus'. I feel your service is a very good one. I will make recommendations whenever possible.
I don't need you! However, my people do. They report they get a great deal from your visits.
When I have a legal problem, I call my attorney. When I have an accounting problem, I talk to my accountant. And when I need help with a people problem, I call Keyline Company.
Your program has been the biggest single factor in the development of our human resource, which is our most important asset.
I am delighted with the results. While many of the decisions were not directly a result of Keyline, your presence within the organization gave direction to the decision. You forced us to take a good hard look at ourselves. The value received greatly surpasses the costs involved.
Graham, John Mathis of Keyline Company is the person who has helped us with recruiting. He has done a great job in getting the right person for the job. We have hired several people including a CFO and two General Managers thru him.
You have been a great resource for our company and we will continue to use your services when needed. I always spread the word about your good services to people in and outside the company.
Our company has used your services before with good results and now would
like to use your skills for another position.
"I.ve know John for over 30 years, and he has proven over and over again his expertise in selection. His experience in diagnosing key issues relating to superior performance has helped many organizations hire and retain top talent. His exemplary professionalism and ethics are apparent in all aspects of his life"
"I have interviewed with some of the countries top fortune 500 companies. My experience going through the Keyline System proved to be the toughest job screening experience. I interviewed with my company whose industry I did not know, and was hired based on my abilities (personal talents, not my knowledge of the industry. I believe in their system, it makes for a great fit."
