ADP Dealer Services Launches Employee Screening and Selection Services

New Suite of Services Enables Dealerships to Make the Right Choice in Selecting Employees

HOFFMAN ESTATES, Ill., Aug. 29 -- In a move to help dealers make better hiring decisions and bring cost savings to their stores, The Dealer Services Group of Automatic Data Processing, Inc. today announced the launch of its employee Screening and Selection Services offering.

Through a single Internet portal, http://www.adpselect.com/, ADP offers selection services, screening services and compliance services that help dealerships choose team members, securely manage on-line job applications, conduct criminal history and background screening, and assist with human resource compliancy.

"One of the most important factors in the success of our dealership is hiring the right employees. We chose ADP to help us with employee hiring because they provide us with a complete hiring solution. From the employment application through the background check, data is imported directly to our payroll system, saving us significant time in data input," said Pam Taquino, human resource manager for the Bohn Group. "The robust array of services offered by Screening and Selection Services has reduced our costs for employee verification and background checks. ADP provides the best value for their service."

Screening and Selection Services helps reduce employee turnover by pre- qualifying candidates for specific employment opportunities inside the dealership. Dealers using Screening and Selection Services can create a job posting, then select from a pool of qualified candidates and utilize state-of- the-art job assessment tools to assess their respective job fit. Dealers can then screen and validate information on prospective hires for criminal history, substance abuse, workers' compensation claims, reference checks, social security number validation, driving records, and more.

"Personnel hiring and retention is one of the highest costs of dealership overhead. By helping dealerships find the best workers, Screening and Selection Services ultimately helps better manage these high costs while improving employee productivity throughout the dealership," said David Holly, vice president and general manager of ADP Dealer Services' Human Capital Management Products.

ADP's Screening and Selection Services also offers a resource library and experienced HR Help Desk professionals to assist dealers with HR related issues. These additional resources can help dealers ask potential employees the right questions at the right time.

"As part of ADP, we can leverage considerable expertise and a comprehensive suite of employee management solutions to deliver high-value employee selection offerings to our dealership clients," said Holly.
