Step One Survey II®

The Step One Survey II® (SOSII) is a brief, pre-hire assessment tool that helps organizations reduce hiring risk and increase your probability of only hiring people likely to become “good employees” in the general sense.

It is designed to help answer these 4 questions:

  • “Can this applicant be trusted?”
  • “Is this applicant drug free?”
  • “Is this applicant dependable?”
  • “Will this applicant be a long-term, hard-working employee?”
