Can We Predict Performance?
Are resumes, references and interviews enough? Thanks to new technology in assessing people, you can predict job performance. For decades, many companies used personality tests to place candidates in jobs. If a person tested as an extrovert, for example, they were placed in a sales job. Now it is much more complex.
Our Total Person assessment compares your candidates to a custom specific benchmark that we prepare based on your top performers in a specific job. Our study of the traits of your top performers and your poor performers shows us if a candidate for your job compares well to your top performer and if any critical traits are present that lead to known poor performance in your company. We automatically take into account your environment and company culture. It works because we have shown success over 20 years with some of the world's largest companies.
There are several built-in parameters in our system that tell us the reliability and validity of our results. We know if someone is trying to cheat on our assessment, and we know if their answers meet exacting reliability and validity parameters.
