Create Benchmarks for Success

Before assessing an individual, our team of experts helps you develop performance models for the jobs you need to fill. A performance model is a benchmark you will compare individuals against to establish the degree of job-person fit.

Receive Actionable Data

The system instantly scores the assessment and sends the requested reports to the hiring manager and anyone else who would like to view them. The reports will show the comparison between the Performance Model and your candidate’s personality traits. This will establish the degree of job fit. The hiring manager uses these results to screen the candidate or assist in the process of interviewing, selecting, and onboarding.

Measures

PXT Select Sales Report measures the full view of a person including, thinking, behavioral traits, interests, and the candidate’s approach to eight critical sales behaviors.

PXT Select Sales Report thinking style rankings graph

Thinking Style

Also known as cognitive ability, this is the number one predictor of success on the job. It defines how a person processes information for problem-solving, communication, and learning skills. Learn how well the candidate matches the preferred verbal and numerical capabilities for the role.

Behavioral Traits

This portion of the assessment measures a person’s key tendencies and preferences. Learn, for example, if a candidate tends to be cooperative and work within the rules or if they tend to set their direction and act independently.

Technical

A Technical interest suggests the enjoyment of learning technical material, interpreting complex information, and solving abstract problems. Salespeople with this interest may enjoy promoting technical improvements and high-tech gadgetry.

Creative

A Creative interest suggests the enjoyment of imaginative and artistic activities. Salespeople with this interest may appreciate sales activities or presentations that involve innovative thinking, personal expression, and product appeal.

Interests

This section helps predict motivation and potential satisfaction with a given job. The more their interests align with what the job requires, the more they will enjoy it. This is critical because we know that people who are happier in their jobs are more productive, more effective, and more engaged.

Prospecting

Strategizing, seeking out,a nd creating opporunities to engage with potential clients.
