What is Job Matching?
Job matching is a sophisticated, data-driven approach to talent optimization. It goes beyond simply filling an open role; it's about finding the right person for the right role. By aligning an individual's behavioural preferences with the specific requirements of a position, job matching increases the likelihood of employee success, job satisfaction, and long-term retention.
The Psychometric Portal® facilitates this process by analysing data from Quest Profiler® , our robust personality assessment. This allows you to identify candidates whose inherent behavioural tendencies are best suited to the demands and responsibilities of the role in question. By understanding these preferences, you can gain valuable insights into how a candidate is likely to approach tasks, interact with colleagues, and respond to challenges within the workplace. This data-driven approach helps you make informed hiring decisions that contribute to building high-performing, engaged teams.
