Why It's Different

Historically, Human Resource managers have tried to assess those traits necessary in a particular position, then find applicants who seem to emulate them. While many tests have been designed to measure a propensity towards a particular skill set, none, until now, have been designed to measure and qualify that "certain something" that makes some people more appropriate for a job than others.

Most employment screening systems use a very broad statistical sampling population. Consequently, they are only capable of measuring very broad categories of human behavior. Knowing that an individual has some degree of honesty or integrity is important, however, most employers are "really" interested in how well that person will perform in their work environment. Having a high degree of integrity is a valuable trait… it is useless, however, if that person cannot do the job for which they were hired!

What has been missing from the mix is a way to allow the person who has the employment needs to interact with the calculations necessary for determining fitness for a particular function. Profiler© provides a way of bringing that complex pattern recognition technology down to the users' level! Thus, it is no longer the purview of ivory tower statisticians. This system allows the HR manager to determine what is important to measure in an employee and what is important to screen for in an applicant.
