Software to Streamline Multifamily Real Estate Company’s Human Resource Processes and Enhance Quality of Hires

DALLAS--()--PeopleAnswers today announced a new software licensing agreement with Fairfield Residential Company LLC, one of the largest privately owned, multifamily real estate operating companies in the United States. Fairfield Residential will use the PeopleAnswers Predictive Talent Analytics™ solution in selecting candidates who have the right behavioral fit to deliver exceptional property management services across its more than 50,000 units in 20 states across the United States.

“As we grow, it is critical to identify people who fit both our corporate culture and each local culture across our communities – team members who will contribute to our goal of delivering exceptional property management services for our investors and residents,” said Terry Phillips, senior vice president of operations, Fairfield Properties L.P. “PeopleAnswers has a track record of proven effectiveness in helping identify and develop team members in the property management industry, enabling us to continue providing our residents with a high-quality living experience.”

Fairfield Residential managers will use PeopleAnswers’ intuitive, cloud-based desktop and mobile software platforms across all properties to prescreen and hire all onsite positions including property managers and assistants, leasing consultants, maintenance managers and porters/housekeepers. The associate selection process will use a single prescreen behavioral evaluation that will identify best-fit candidates by comparing them with custom Performance Profiles for each position. The software’s unique ability to compare candidates to multiple profiles helps managers match the applicant with the position where there is the highest probability for long-term success.

By using PeopleAnswers, Fairfield Residential will offer a consistent associate recruiting and development process across all properties to improve the quality of managers’ hiring decisions while also adding efficiency. Managers will also use PeopleAnswers as a guide for candidate interview questions, associate development and succession planning, functions that will be enhanced through integration with the applicant tracking system Fairfield Residential currently uses.

“Building a foundation of efficient and effective processes and technology is vital in selecting employees that will drive growth in today’s fast-growing, demanding and competitive property management industry,” said Gabriel Goncalves, CEO and president, PeopleAnswers. “PeopleAnswers’ Predictive Talent Analytics is proven to drive high-quality talent management and longer employee retention that can be the differentiator.”

PeopleAnswers is the talent assessment technology of choice for the property management industry with clients that manage more than 1.4 million apartment units across North America.
