The Profile Evaluation System™ (PES) has been successfully implemented in thousands of organisations throughout the world over the last 30 years. PES combines cognitive and personality scales in a normative instrument to provide a well-rounded, comprehensive description of an individual’s aptitudes and personality. The PES predicts how an individual may perform in a given job by comparing that individual’s Profile to a normative pattern which can be developed for a specific job at a specific organisation. Along with interviewing, checking references, and administering other applicable tests, the PES helps ensure good, solid hiring decisions.
Because it is very comprehensive, the PES is often used in hiring and placement of higher level associates and sales individuals. As a coaching tool, the PES helps a group leader communicate more skilfully with group members and develop them more effectively.
