Helping humans collect better information to make the best hiring decisions.
HireBest® is the proven training program borne from decades of experience conducting executive assessments for some of the top private equity firms in the country.
Welcome from Craig della Penna, creator of the HireBest Method:
For the last 20 years, I’ve had the privilege to advise some of the top business leaders in America. Over time, that has evolved from financial guidance to strategic and operational guidance, and finally to talent – the focus of my life for the last decade-plus. I love helping wildly successful business leaders create even more success for themselves, and I’ve learned that the number one way to create more success is by improving the quality of the people that they hire and put on their team.
I’ve conducted thousands of interviews using the HireBest approach, achieving a 90% success rate in identifying top talent. Now I am proud to share the knowledge I’ve gained from advising leading private equity firms, Fortune 500 companies, small mom-and-pop’s, and everywhere in-between.
This is the origin of HireBest – a desire to help business leaders at all levels make better hiring decisions, and democratize talent!
