What is Job Fit?

Mike Kestly • January 6, 2019

In 2019, Job fit is so much more than placing a person in a job. Job fit gets to the core of who a person really is. When you identify and evaluate a person’s innate personality traits, abilities, and behaviors, you can determine if a person CAN do a job, HOW they will do the job, and if they will ENJOY their work.

When you place people in jobs where the demands match their own abilities, where the stimulation offered by the work matches their interests, and where cultural demands align with their personalities, turnover will decrease while productivity increases dramatically.
