Role of Psychometric Tools/Personality Assessments In the Hiring Process

In today’s marketplace it is imperative to find the right person for the right job. Beyond behaviorally based interviews, team interviews and reference checking, what can an employer do to ensure the best job-fit?

More and more employers are turning to personality profiles as part of their hiring practices. Do they work?  Is this a sound, ethically and legally responsible consideration?

In “Personality Profiles as a Consideration in the Hiring Process” we will first take a high-level view of four personality profiles in widespread use:

• Birkman®
• Emergenetics®
• MBTI®
• DiSC®

Upon obtaining a base-line understanding of these tools, we examine the potential obstacles profiling may present in today’s business environment.

Learning Objectives:

• Develop a high-level understanding of four personality profiles currently available in the marketplace.
• Understand potential legal limitations on the use of personality profiles in hiring.
• Building an employment brand that appeals to all thinking/behavioral preferences.
• Develop a process/flow chart for when personality profiles may or may not be the appropriate tool.
