According to the vendor, the results allow users to better predict workplace behaviors and motivating needs.

The PI Behavioral Assessment™ is a scientifically validated, free-choice, stimulus response assessment that was created through a normative sample of thousands of people.

Predictive Index has served us well so far in helping determine key personality traits of salespeople we hire. How will they sell? Is sales a good fit for them? We have not expanded to use it with other teams/depts yet. We primarily use the behavioral assessment (not cognitive).

Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment is perfect for scenarios in which you have to narrow down several strong candidates. It provides insights into how they could mesh with current employees while serving up resources to help the recruiter better communicate with a candidate. That said, the tool isn't a perfect science so you can't expect every PI influenced hire to pan out. Overall the success rate is quite high.

The training was thorough and outstanding. It really helped demonstrate how to maximize the use of the product. It has transformed the way we hire and recruit, and the results have been phenomenal. We also use the software for current employees, ensuring they are on the right team and working with the right people. It has played a huge part in retaining employees as well.

I believe our candidates are able to think about what other coworkers and managers believe their strengths are. [Candidates] are also able to think about what they would like to accomplish at our company and what [skills] they still [need] to develop. The assessment is very thorough.

It's difficult to gauge workplace behaviors based on an interview. Through [Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment], it gives us a better idea of how candidates would react in certain situations, then we can pinpoint specific questions to further explore that.
Ex: For a particular role, we need someone comfortable with risk and understanding the big picture. The system will suggest behavioral based questions we could use to determine whether or not this candidate can meet those expectations of the job.

[Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment] should never be used as the deciding factor in hiring. It is simply a data point and tool to help learn

I believe that Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment is well suited during the application process. It allows the recruiter, managers, and admin to get a glimpse at each individual assessment and how they rate. It gives an explanation as to the candidate's characteristics such as venturer, altruist, operator, guardian, scholar, maverick, etc. It allows us to set each position with a job target.

The PI works well for identifying individuals for specific roles. For example, if you were looking for a candidate for a sales position the PI helps you find someone more outgoing. This is also good for roles where you have a higher volume of hires, such as for a contact center. The PI helps you identify what works in your company.

  • It seems very well suited to help with the screening/hiring process.
  • The Interview Questions are an excellent conversation starter.
  • When done and shared organization-wide, it should help with communication.
  • I fear pigeon-holing people based on their profiles. People can change and grow.

This is a great tool for identifying talent to help your team. If I need someone with a specific personality to fill a gap in my team, it can narrow it down to who I want. Too often a sales team is stacked with only one type of person. Clients don't respond to that. We need different types of people to meet our customers where they're comfortable

It is best suited for companies whose employees work collaboratively and in close proximity. They need to have the time and be willing to make the commitment of training their employees on PI and implementing the system. It is about a year long process and requires a strong group driving the implementation.

It is excellent for hiring, managing employees (finding out how to manage each person and tailoring your management style appropriately), succession planning, performance reviews, coaching employees, and I could continue to go on. It has amazing features which allow you to really understand the people that work for your company.

I recommend PI for defining the desired characteristics in a requisition. From there you can use this tool to match talent to your open positions and make an informed hiring decision. PI will even help produce some helpful interview questions that are targeted at each applicant's gaps.

I think the PI is well-suited for managers to assess their new associates - this can help a manager work best with their new associate and provide them with the work environment to be happy, comfortable and excel.

The PI should be used to assess any candidate for any organization. I really believe that the software is that helpful. It's like having a mind reader / person analyzer that can tell you everything you need to know about somebody. Some candidates enjoy seeing their PI results and receive a lot of enjoyment from seeing how accurate it is.
