Aaron Wallis include psychometric profiling as standard in all of their recruitment services.  The profiling is in the form of a ‘Personality Questionnaire’ and takes around 5-7 minutes for each candidate to complete.  

The software that we use is PIP (Personality Identity Profiler) whish we chose for four reasons:

i) It is simple for a candidate to complete

ii) You do not have to be qualified in order to read and understand the results

iii) it is not an ipsativ test, i.e. You don’t have to choose a word which is more like you and a word which is least like you which means that the resulting profile has a greater degree of accuracy

Iv) It is an excellent interview aide which enables interviewers to quickly get into the core of an interview

The questionnaire is 70 adjectives which the candidate has to answer from ‘not at all like me’ to ‘very much like me’ from a scale of five answers.  The questionnaire has to be answered in how they are in a workplace environment.  

The questionnaire looks at eight different areas, and the report describes the behaviours most commonly associated with individuals who respond in a particular way to the questions in each of these areas. The conclusions reached in each report are based on a systematic comparison of the candidate’s answers to the questionnaire with those of a general sample of the working population.

You will also receive a report that indicates the candidate’s preferred working environment.      

PIP is a fast, simple and inexpensive pre-interview guide which when used effectively allows the interviewer to ‘get beneath the skin’ in a quicker period of time enables you to make the most of the interview time.  Your Aaron Wallis consultant will brief you on how to effectively use the tool as part of your recruitment process.  The PIP profile also highlights areas that you should probe further and even suggests questions to ask.  

The PIP Report looks at eight key personality traits in the workplace:

Assertiveness

Drive

Extroversion

Confidence

Social Sensitivity

Caring

Structure

Openness to Change
