LOMASelect® Service Index 

Working in a contact center isn't for everyone.  Successful agents need to have an extraordinary blend of interpersonal skills and tolerance for the unique situations of a contact center environment.  Staffing your contact center with the wrong candidates can lead to increased turnover, low morale and poor customer service.  

LOMASelect® Service Index helps you select the best candidates by providing valuable information on whether applicants have preferences most likely to lead to successful long-term employment in customer service. The low-cost and flexible screening solution is ideal for evaluating a large pool of candidates.

  • Easily administer tests and interpret results
  • Know the candidate wants to do the job
  • Improve customer service and overall performance
  • Reduce turnover by choosing candidates who will more likely stay in the job

The Web-delivered system is designed specifically to assess a core set of job dimensions which are critical to both success and longevity in jobs requiring high levels of customer service.

Proof in the Numbers
Test takers scoring in the top half of the test are 45% less likely to turn over during the first year. In one study, top scorers turned over 18.8% of the time, while low scorers turned over 34.4% of the time.

Dimensions of the assessment include:

  • Customer Service Orientation: A preference for working with a variety of people, who may be unfamiliar, compared to working alone or with familiar people. Includes a desire to help people and the ability to listen to customer complaints without taking them personally.
  • Job Structure Orientation: A preference for following prescribed rules and procedures, and for performing routine and repetitive tasks.
  • Work Environment Orientation: A preference for working quickly and with fast turnaround, and on short-term tasks and projects. Includes a preference for a job which is "tied to the desk".
  • Overall Service Index: A general index of the applicant's fit with customer service based jobs.
