Job Profiling

Job Profiling enables a business to develop an objective view of the behavioural characteristics needed to successfully perform a specific job role.

Profiling jobs can be completed in four steps:

You will be asked to look at the Job Demand lists and identify what are the most important characteristics for the job. You then select the first factor. For example, if you want to profile the job of a sales person, the first factor you might choose would be driven, assertive, goal oriented.
You will then be asked to choose from the remaining three Job Demand lists. In a sales role you would probably be looking for mobile, active, alert so you would choose that word set. The graph then reflects your choice.
There will then be four remaining sets of Job Demand lists from the remaining profile factors. From these you will be asked to choose the next most significant word group. In our example of the sales person we choose I - persuasiveness, influence, outgoing.
There will then be only two sets of adjectives left from which you must choose one. The screen will now display the "job demands" associated with this profile shape; the centre section will display the basic combination; the bottom section will display the first part of the job description.

The resulting Job Profile is very much a "work in progress", which can be manipulated to increase or decrease any of the four factors.

Once satisfied, you will have a Job Profile to compare against each applicant's Personality Profile, to assess "the best fit".
