title: Development of a pre-employment testing program in medical group practices.
abstract: Pre-employment testing requires rigorous groundwork which many managers may not be willing to do, nor pay a professional to do for them. The benefits, though, have been documented in a number of studies which have shown pre-employment testing to be a beneficial and cost-efficient part of the selection process. Pre-employment testing will not supplant traditional selection processes such as interviewing and reference checks, but rather will enhance the selection process and reduce costs associated with turnover, as this professional paper discusses.
