Information uncovered from assessments helps leaders and managers rely less on gut instinct and make smarter people decisions. Talent assessment tools are a sure way to “ensure that the people they do hire, and the people already employed by the company are put in the right roles, developed in the right ways, and prepared for upcoming leadership challenges as effectively and efficiently as possible,” according to the 2010 Talent Assessment Strategies report done by the Aberdeen Group. Aberdeen also found companies using assessments demonstrated a 75% great year-over-year improvement in hiring manager satisfaction.

Profiles International has several talent assessment tests that ensure potential employees will succeed in managerial roles or if current employees, up for promotion, will be a perfect fit and a competent manager.

Leadership Assessments

Business leaders need helpful and reliable assessments to provide information and insights about how to have a successful talent management program. Checkpoint 360°™ is an employee assessment test for leaders and used primarily to evaluate the leadership skills and effectiveness of your managers and leaders. Checkpoint 360°™ helps managers identify and prioritize their own development opportunities and leadership skills.

Personality Assessments

In order to have a well-rounded and successful team, it must be comprised of various types of people such as people who like to lead and some who follow, employees who are introverts and extroverts, and some who go by intuition and others who must have facts in front of them. If an employer is looking for a way to make sure the potential employee will succeed with the other members they can use the Profiles Performance Indicator™. This assessment highlights an employee’s strengths and weaknesses.

Job Fit Assessments

For an employee to be successful, the boss must understand how the potential employee works so they can drive the employee in the workforce. The ProfileXT^® assessment looks at three dimensions of a person: learning style, occupational interest, and behavior tendencies. This assessment is also customizable and peak job performance models can be developed by company, position, manager or geography.

Skills Assessments

Any business professional can fill their resume with skills they’re proficient in, but what they're actually capable of doing may be different. Skills tests are used to help employers identify an employee’s individual capabilities along and measure essential knowledge and skills sets. Our technologies use performance-based testing to ensure accurate, reliable measurement of the knowledge, skills, and abilities of a person.
