HISTORY
1956
The Birth of Personnel Testing & CRI
CRI is born, as Dr. John Shirley establishes the first localized personnel testing practice utilizing the prominently recognized psychological tests of the day to evaluate applicants for leadership positions at major corporations.
1956
1960's
The Achiever
Shirley enlists the help of fellow psychologists to build an enhanced candidate selection tool. It would be the first of its kind to incorporate mental aptitudes, personality dimensions and validity scoring all in one instrument, and would eventually become the “Gold Standard” in both talent selection and performance management. The first generation of The Achiever is born.
1960's
1970's
Validation & Simplified Reporting
Milt Cotter begins working with Shirley, and engages leading neuropsychologists to help create an innovative reporting system, enabling trained laymen to administer, score, and interpret the assessments in a more effective and economical manner. Shortly thereafter, Cotter also introduces benchmarking to the assessments, leveraging the data to help companies assess top-performers as an additional way to validate hiring decisions.

Accessibility
Cotter enlists the help of programmers to move the The Achiever scoring and reporting system into the digital world, leading to today’s convenient, internet-accessible tools.

80% of employee turnover comes from bad decisions at the time of hiring
We believe a company’s greatest asset is their people, and recognize that the need for them to select people who are the best fit for any particular role (while also staying focused on engagement and talent management) is critical to the success of any organization.
Yet we also know how difficult (and subjective) the selection process can be, thus we pride ourselves on taking out the guesswork and making the process as painless as possible.
To simplify hiring and talent selection, CRI offers job-specific assessments utilizing an all-in-one measurement system (combined with customized interview questions and key performance indicators) to help reveal a candidate’s true talents, identify their likeliness to succeed in a given role, and provide a unique basis for selection comparison.
The "Gold Standard" in employee performance enhancement
CRI’s job-specific assessments can be an invaluable tool for assessing existing employees for: Promotion, Transfers, Performance Reviews, Personal Productivity Plans
