MAKE BETTER HIRES

Why Get ECR Certified?

Hiring great people starts with great decisions. The ECR (External Candidate Review) is The Metiss Group’s proprietary assessment designed to help hiring teams evaluate new hire candidates more effectively and objectively.

Becoming ECR Certified equips you with the insight, structure, and tools to hire smarter and faster with less guesswork.

Here’s what certification empowers you to do:

 

Checkmark

Make Data-Driven Hiring Decisions

Move beyond gut instinct and résumé reading. ECR gives you behavioral data that helps uncover how a candidate is likely to show up in the role before you hire them.

Checkmark

Create Consistency Across Hiring Teams

Ensure every interviewer is aligned with a structured, repeatable assessment method that makes comparing candidates easier and decision-making more objective.

Checkmark

Reduce Costly Mis-Hires

Mis-hires are expensive and disruptive. ECR Certification equips you to spot red flags early and focus your hiring on long-term fit, not short-term fixes.
