The Assessment
PeopleAnswers assessments are generated instantly once the
candidate has completed the online surveys. The system compares
the candidate's Behavioral DNA™ with the Ideal Profile to create
the final assessment. The patent-pending CASPER™ engine provides
detailed analysis of how your candidate or employee compares
with the Ideal Profile.

Different sections of the PeopleAnswers online assessment include:
- Dashboard – Look at
the big picture: Critical information from the assessment
is summarized and presented graphically in an easy to understand
format for quick reference. Links allow you to quickly drill
deeper into only the information you want to investigate
further.
- Key Performance Indicators
– Determine fit and strength of key characteristics:
The behavioral dimensions measured are combined into behavioral
composites to provide insight into important competencies
such as Intellect, Drive and Motivation, Work Style, Interpersonal
Style, Leadership/Management Style and Cultural Fit.
- Narratives – Get the
whole story in plain English: This state-of-the-art module
creates extremely rich narratives one sentence at a time
as it examines the candidate's Behavioral DNA as it relates
to the Ideal Profile. An artificial intelligence grammar
engine then assembles the unique narrative that describes
your candidate or employee accurately and in detail.
- Attributes – Know
the candidate so you can manage them better: This module
summarizes the Narratives into specific management insight
to quickly determine if the candidate will fit your needs.
Attributes can also be used by the candidate’s direct
report to better manage the candidate to increase his or
her productivity, overall job satisfaction and longevity.
- Interview Questions –
Take the insight and knowledge gained from the assessment
into the interviewing process: CASPER reviews important
characteristics of a particular job then determines the
candidate’s most severe deviations to uncover the
most noteworthy risks. Then CASPER develops customized interview
questions that help you probe deeper into these areas of
potential risk. The result is more meaningful interviews
that focus on the important issues that must be dealt with
before making a decision about a candidate. PeopleAnswers
provides the insights, initial and follow-up questions,
the analysis of how to interpret the candidate's responses,
and even questions to ask the candidate's references.
- Development Resources –
Focus on a candidate’s growth points to build a best
of breed workforce: PeopleAnswers is pre-loaded with vast
base of development resources that can help a candidate
take advantage of growth opportunities. Companies can add
their own courseware and development resources to their system
as well.
- Ranking – Compare
multiple candidates to find those with the highest correlation
to job fit: All candidates being assessed for a position
are ranked in order of their behavior’s correlation
to job fit allowing you to quickly determine which candidates
on which you want to focus your attention. PeopleAnswers
even lets you export information to Microsoft Excel to continue
your analysis offline.
- Printing Engine –
Take it with you and share with others: PeopleAnswers advanced
printing engine lets you select any portion or all of the
online assessment to be repurposed in a formatted printable
document allowing you to review the information offline,
include in management reports or share with others.
The final assessment is available for you to review online
via a web browser within minutes of your candidate or employee
having completed the online surveys. You get automatically
notified via email as soon as the assessment is ready.
