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 job-related evidence, organizations make better decisions and candidates find roles where they can excel. Everyone wins.

In a landmark meta-analysis, Frank Schmidt and John Hunter reviewed thousands of studies across industry, time, and place to determine how various methods used to evaluate job candidates differ in their ability to predict performance.*

That research and its updates guide our personalized recommendations and validation of key combinations of pre-hire assessments, from structured interviews and work samples to assessments of interests, personality, and values alignment, to support great hiring decisions. 

Help your organization and your hires find fit with Sift HR’s expertise.
