What is Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment?
The PI Behavioral Assessment™ is a simple yet effective assessment that is broken down into four primary behavioral factors, or core drives. These core drives and their relation to each other create a behavioral pattern that provides a framework for understanding the workplace behaviors of candidates and employees. 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. It has been investigated in nearly 500 criterion-related validity studies across almost all jobs and countries, built to the standards of the American Psychological Association (APA), Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychologists (SIOP), and the International Test Commission (ITC).

Predictive Index shows you what a resume cannot
- In-person training classes are amazing. There are all types and can be at their location or will come to our town.
- Training classes online and webinars are very helpful learning new products on the website.
- The website is easy to use and well organized.
- The end product is very accurate. People are really surprised that the simple test shows them so much about themselves.
- The price can be a little high for a smaller business but they might have different tiers. Not sure.
- The website is always helpful, but I have seen 3 design changes in it since I start using it 5 years ago. Hard to find things at first.
- They seem to add more features each year. Which is normally ok, but I don't use them all and it can get cluttered.

Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment Review
- Gives insights about how each applicant learns
- Advises or gives ideas as to how to train then in ways that relate to how they learn
- It gives the company an idea (not written in stone) if the applicant would be a great fit for our work culture.
- It's a learning tool for our managers and administrators.
- I don't think it needs any improvement other than its customer service.
- Maybe switch questions around so that they are not so cookie cutter questions.
February 27, 2020
Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment Survey
- It gauges whether or not the candidate is a good fit for the position we're hiring for.
- Informs the managers to figure out the way each candidate should be managed.
- Although it's not written in stone, it does real good in getting to the know the way the candidate learns.
- I don't believe it needs anything else
- It is already integrating the results for each candidate in our applicant tracking system.
- I believe it should automatically send a copy to the applicant.

PI Review
- Aiding in formulating interview questions in line with the specific role requirements.
- Providing a snapshot of easy to read breakdown of motivators, needs, and perceptions for an individual. This is a great summary to have of yourself and your team!

- Assesses behavior
- Provides tips for navigating relationships
- The interview questions it provides are spot on. The guide is perfect for both the new and experienced managers.
- It takes time to fully understand the relationships of the factors. You need to attend the training to fully understand the effectively utilize the product.
- The Catalyst function is still growing. Having more on demand training will be the most effective way for me to fully utilize the system.
- I need training targeted for hiring managers, not just PI Masters.

New to PI and I LOVE it!
- The Assessment is easy to administer and easy to complete.
- It gives ideas for questions to ask candidates during an interview.
- I also like the descriptions of the individual Profiles.
- I love the new Management Tools that have been added.
- The People Management Survey was wonderful.
- Some of the Reference Profiles seem very similar. Maybe consolidating could help.
- Describes key factors in work behaviors
- Helps people understand others' drives and needs behind their behaviors
- The new site has amazing tools for understanding relationships and team dynamics
- My only complaint is I wish the Factor letters correlated with what they measure like other tools. For non-regular users trying to remember what A, B, C or D stand for can be an issue with discussing the tool.

- Clues you in to what you should expect from an employee
- Gives you a road map for how to work with a person.
- Let's you see who you're talking to, not who they're trying to project
- The time it takes to really learn how to read the report is extensive
- There is no casual use of the PI. You need to commit to it.

- User-friendly product with amazing features that they are constantly updating and improving
- Amazing tool to help manage our teams, coach our managers, maximize performance and managerial effectiveness, and hire new employees
- I don't really have any complaints about PI, but if I had to pick something, I'd say add more resources on the behavioral charts for people who haven't been through training to interpret it

- I really love the PI placards - we give them to new associates during their new hire orientation. Our associates display them on their desks/in their cubicles.

- Showing what drives an individual
- Explaining the needs and behaviors of an individual
- Helping with the selection of candidates and development of current employees
- The transition from the old analytical patterns to the new patterns is a bit confusing

PI for candidate use
- Clear explanation of results and what they mean
- Visual representation of results
- Easy to use program
- Not sure that it's technically a PI Behavioral Assessment issue, but my company has recently integrated PI with our ATS Clear Company. It doesn't always integrate, but that may be on their end.

PI Behavioral Assessment Software Review

Vetted Review

- The PI software does a fantastic job describing a person. It is actually exciting to get results.
- You are able to coach and train employees in their current positions because the PI software helps you see where employees need to grow.
- You are able to set a job pattern PI so that you can match candidates to the job pattern. This is very useful when you have a lot of applicants for a specific job.
- The only thing that needs working on is the beta site. That's why it's in beta, though. Some of the functions aren't working properly yet, but they will be and I am very excited for that.

PI Transformed My Time Management Evaluating Candidates
- Do you know what drives each individual in your company? The PI Behavioral Assessment provides this insight with details that are profoundly accurate and open up a very candid and genuine conversation for both the employer and the employee/candidate.
- Do you know where their strengths are? The PI Behavioral Assessment will show you; for those employees/candidates that find it hard to express themselves, this is a true benefit.
- Do you know whether they are truly fulfilled in their role? The PI Behavioral Assessment facilitates open and candid communications; as you enter into a conversation about what the employee/candidate "truly" wants to be doing, positive decisions can be made that generate improvements the entire company experiences.
- In Beta -> Hire -> New Candidates - > I would like to see the ability to create 1 or 2 additional "Type" folders that can be customized for my company. By being able to do this, I can more efficiently manage my potential candidates, rather that every time I go to review a position, having to make these individual selections each time. I would like the favorite icon and the pass icon to remain; however find it extraneous to have to sort through these candidates each time.

PI is a great tool for employee development
- Behavior profile - speaks to how they will tend to act.
- Factor combinations describe how strongly they will be in critical areas like decision making, risk taking and people versus task orientation.
- Create pros to capture ideal candidates based on best-performing people.
- None

The PI is great!
- Giving managers an important tool that tells them how they can best interact with a given employee of theirs, manage them, and take care of their needs
- Helps employees across the workplace communicate well with one another
- Ensures that you are hiring people who are the right fit for a role and will thrive in that role because it matches the things that they enjoy doing and they are well-suited to do
- Provides coaching opportunities if an employee is not doing well in a role (using the self-concept graph)
- Making the website a bit more user-friendly, less bugs, a better experience overall
January 17, 2018
Incredibly Impactful Tool
- Spot on assessment with a well written, positively framed debrief/report
- Development tool outlining strengths, cautions and self coaching based on PI pattern to foster self awareness and focused development
- Tremendous resources within the Catalyst site for users and administrators - this has been an outstanding addition for PI
- PRO patterns to be able to gauge applicant fit to a role
- Recent improvements and content available via Catalyst has addressed the majority of what I would've previously said was "missing."
- Better partnership and resources offered from the partners that "sell" PI services. Our local partnership is non-existent and we are continually under impressed with them.
