What is Personal Profile Analysis (PPA) Report?
A Personal Profile Analysis (PPA) is a psychometric assessment used to assess a candidate’s behavioral profile.
CVs and LinkedIn profiles can’t tell you a candidate’s true potential, and gut feel isn’t enough.
Our PPA’s are powered by Thomas International we are able to help you understand your ideal candidate’s behaviour, aptitude and personality traits.
We issue PPA’s via email for online completion, they only take 8 minutes to complete and once completed they provide an accurate insight into how people behave at work detailing a person’s strengths and limitations, communication style, value to the business, what motivates them, their basic fears and how they behave under pressure.
Why you should use a PPA?
PPA’s are an essential tool to help you:
• Recruit the right person
• Improve communication
• Motivate and engage staff
• Identify areas for development
• Manage performance
Our Standard PPA Report is an essential tool that should be used before making your final decision to hire someone
Don’t recruit without the full picture
Go beyond the CV and the interview, understand which candidate will be the best fit for your organisation.
Psychometric tools in recruitment offer more detailed and insightful information than these traditional assessment methods. They can help to assess aptitude and personality, and exploring things like an individual’s communication style, emotional intelligence and behaviours as they relate directly to the workplace.
Being able to predict how someone will behave on the job, work with others, overcome setbacks or apply themselves in problem solving situations is directly linked to achieving job-related goals, and in turn, achieving business goals as well.
Assess your current workforce
Spend time managing your underperformers and focus more time on those who will truly drive your business forward, PPA’s aren’t just for recruiting new employees.
By using psychometric tools, employers are better equipped with a deeper level of understanding to determine whether a candidate has the skills and personality traits for the role in question.
Behavioural assessments help organisations and recruiting managers understand the level of interpersonal skills that a person has and help predict how they might respond to new and different scenarios.
Regular PPA’s are a great way of ensuring that your workforce is in good shape. Companies that conduct 6 monthly or yearly PPA’s have reported that their retention levels have increased due to pre-emptive adaptations within the persons role and situation.
