PXT Select™ for Hiring
Hire Candidates Using Job Fit
The Harvard Business Review (HBR) conducted a 20-year long study to determine what predictors, if any, would help hiring managers determine if a candidate could become a successful employee. This study reviewed 360,000 individuals in 14 different industries. It tested whether demographics, education, or experience could predict if a candidate would be successful.
It turned out that none of these items alone could predict if a candidate would be successful. However, the research found that if a candidate was a “good fit” for their position they would ultimately be successful within their job.
What is PXT Select?
Talent Board’s 2016 Candidate Experience Research report reveled that an astonishing 82% of companies are using some variation of a selection assessment. Unfortunately, many organizations use assessments that only measure one aspect of a candidate, such as behavior.
PXT Select™ helps to determine how well a person might fit a position based on three primary areas: thinking style, interests, and behavior. Measuring a candidate against these three areas allows hiring managers to interview more effectively and make an informed hiring decision.
