Sift HR is the consulting practice of Justin Wiegand, Ph.D., helping organizations strengthen hiring and performance evaluation through assessments, evidence-based advisory, and focused project services. Our work is grounded in research, careful analysis, and clear documentation, helping organizations make more effective and defensible decisions.

We used Sift HR extensively during a hiring spree for multiple positions. The information received from the assessments was certainly worth the cost, and influenced our hiring decisions in a myriad of ways.​

Sift HR has been extremely helpful in assisting with organizational fit of team members and helping us get the most out of team members.

Dr. Wiegand has a talent for statistical software and analysis… and bringing it to a level that I could understand. If you have the opportunity to work with him, I would highly recommend it.

CLEAR OPTIONS. EXPERT SUPPORT.

Everyone Wins

When hiring decisions are grounded in the job and evidence, organizations make better decisions and candidates are more likely to find work where they can succeed. Everyone wins.

In their landmark meta-analysis, Frank Schmidt and John Hunter reviewed thousands of studies across industry, time, and place, showing that the methods organizations use to evaluate candidates differ meaningfully in how well they predict employee performance.*

That research reinforces the value of using thoughtful combinations of assessments, structured interviews, work samples, and other job-related information rather than relying primarily on intuition or unstructured approaches. Sift HR helps organizations put this evidence into practice in ways that fit their roles and hiring processes.

Help your organization and your candidates succeed with Sift HR’s expertise.
