Job Profile and Job Compatibility

Before you can recruit or develop  the right person to the right job you need to understand not only the candidate’s profile but that of the role itself.

Just as behavioural profiling with BPA enables you to understand the behavioural characteristics of an individual, job profiling helps you identify the behavioural requirements of a job.

Why would you use a job profiling tool?

Job profiling complements the psychometric profiling that Personal Profile Analysis delivers. Both enable you to ‘fit’ job and candidate together seamlessly.  By comparing a PPA profile against that of a job profile you are able to assess how well a person would ‘fit’ the role.  Thomas’ psychometric and behavioural profiling works in tandem with job profiling.

How will job profiling help your business?

Job profiling helps you to think of the key behavioural requirements of the job you are recruiting for in a natural and intuitive way. The process is structured to give you a template into which you can slot a candidate. Just as psychometric profiling helps you understand people’s behaviour, job profiles provide an objective view of the characteristics required for the role.

To assist in analysing how well PPA results compare to a job profile, we have available a guideline that offers external, expert opinion on how appropriate the match is. Called ‘Goodness of Fit’, the guidelines are in the form of a rating system ‘Fit 1’ through to ‘Fit 5’.
