Make More Informed Hiring Decisions

The strongest hiring decisions go beyond CVs and interview performance.

Our talent profiling services help employers gain deeper insight into leadership style, behaviours, communication preferences, team dynamics and potential risk areas, supporting more informed, objective and confident hiring decisions.

Delivered in partnership with Talentpraxis Group, profiling specialists and Chartered Psychologists, the service is designed to strengthen recruitment processes for leadership, specialist and business-critical appointments.

Fundamentally, this process helps organisations make better long-term hiring decisions and reduce the cost of mis-hire.

What the Service Helps Employers Understand

Through tailored assessment and profiling, organisations can gain greater clarity around:

• Leadership and management style
• Communication and interpersonal impact
• Decision-making behaviours
• Motivators and workplace drivers
• Team interaction and organisational alignment
• Areas of potential derailment or development
• Long-term leadership potential
• Risk factors that may not emerge through interview alone

This creates a more rounded understanding of a candidate beyond their CV and interview performance.

Our profiling and assessment services are particularly valuable for:

• Businesses undergoing change or transformation

Our Approach

Working alongside the Talentpraxis Group, assessments are delivered by experienced executive profiling specialists with extensive experience supporting organisations, leadership teams and executive search firms.

Reports are clear, practical and commercially focused, designed to support real-world hiring and leadership decisions rather than purely academic analysis.

Feedback to Client: Reports, including a full debrief over MS Teams with a Chartered Psychologist from Talentpraxis Group, are shared with hiring teams. The debrief process supports informed discussions around candidate suitability, alignment with team dynamics and organisational culture.

Feedback to Candidate: Each candidate also receives a personalised debrief, helping them better understand their profile, strengths and potential contribution.

Successful Candidate & Hiring Manager Debrief: To support successful onboarding, a joint MS Teams debrief brings together the candidate, hiring manager and Talentpraxis consultant to discuss working styles, communication preferences and integration into the team.

Why Employers Use Psychometric Testing

Strong CVs and successful interviews do not always reveal how someone will lead, influence others, handle pressure or integrate into a team environment.

Psychometric assessment gives employers additional confidence and evidence when making important people decisions, helping organisations build stronger, more effective and more resilient teams.
