Introduction to Personality Profiling
Whether you are looking for a new member of staff, or tracking down the perfect candidate for a client, Ambassador Recruitment can provide you with the necessary recruitment selection tools you need to identify the "right person" for the "right job" and boost performance, retention and development of your current staff.
Our Personality Profiling assessment provides an insight into how people behave at work, covering an individual's strengths and limitations, whether they are self starters, how they communicate and even what motivates them.
How will personality profiling help my business?
Personality Profiling enables current and potential employees to become more aware of their work style, by improving self awareness, enabling them to fortify working strengths and reduce the effects of behavioural limitations. Personality Profiling also provides:
- An accurate overview of an individual's behavioural preferences in a work based scenario.
- Self awareness to consolidate working strengths and compensate for limitations.
- Constructive modification of an individual's communication style.
- Understanding of the impact behavioural preferences have on colleagues.
- Fast, accurate and cost effective
- Takes only 7-8 minutes
- Eliminates the need for guesswork
- Enables more effective people management
Introduction to 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.
Once satisfied, you will have a Job Profile to compare against each applicant's Personality Profile, to assess "the best fit".
