Recruitment Tools

PPI
A premier work based personality profiling tool, developed from the original work of Prof. William Moulton Marston and validated by leading UK psychologist, Dr. Terry Kellard. Quick, easy to administer and highly accurate, this versatile business tool is designed to be used within all aspects of people development.

Recruitment – As a recruitment aid, it gives a deep understanding of work personality, including likely strengths, weaknesses, interpersonal skills, plus learning style and potential sales ability. It also looks at their perception of their current role and their potential role and their potential behaviour when placed under pressure. Most important, it acts as a highly effective way of getting past the 'interviewee facade', so that the real interview can commence.

Appraisal System – Built into a regular appraisal system, it allows trained personnel to look for subconscious changes in individual's perceived 'work personality'; thus giving a picture of their perception of their role, plus an indication of their supervisor's management style. It also provides a valuable stress audit, enabling companies who act on the information, to reduce sick days and absenteeism, limit staff leaving and provide some defense against stress litigation.

Management Development – As part of a management and personal development programme, it provides valuable information on their strengths and weaknesses, including; management and leadership style, decision making and organisational skills, time scale and people skills. In short, it lays out those key areas that can be developed, while also highlighting the natural strengths of the individual.

Job Profiler™
Job Profiler™ is a powerful tool designed to take the guesswork out of that most intangible element in any recruitment process, personality.

Candidates are more likely to fail because their personality does not fit the culture of the team or company, than from a lack of necessary skills. Sometimes in the rush to get a position filled, what is missed is specifying the personality or soft skills necessary for the role.

The challenge is that it is not uncommon for those involved in the recruitment process to have very differing opinions.

The result is that as a team, they are not able to articulate accurately the soft skills their experience tells them are required for the role.

In the end, 'personality' can be sidelined as less important and the recruitment team focus on the 'hard skills' that can be more easily quantified. When this happens, if personality is the key to success in most positions, an important part of the job specification has been missed. Job Profiler™ takes the guesswork out of this vital process, providing an easy to use scientific process for preparing personality and soft skill specifications.

Using a simple questionnaire, Job Profiler™ measures the perceptions of key members within a company of the qualities and attributes necessary for success in a particular role. Facilitated by a trained member of staff, it is then possible to quickly overcome differences of opinion and prepare 'optimum profiles' that will fit into a role or team with ease. Used in conjunction with PPI™ profiling system, it reduces that familiar scenario of trying to fit round pegs into square holes.

Job Profiler™ takes the guesswork out of 'personality and soft skill' specification, allowing recruiters to be fully briefed, reducing unsuccessful interviews and failed members of staff.
