Candidate Blueprint

Insight to critical aspects of candidate’s potential fit

Whether evaluating an external or an internal candidate for a position, manager’s have historically relied on their “gut” and often miss critical aspects of a candidate’s make up that impact performance and retention.

In our experience the most effective decisions combine analytical data with a manager’s well-developed intuition.

Over the years we have developed a proprietary approach that produces a rich picture of different aspects of a potential candidate:

  • Depth of knowledge and expertise
  • How they work with others
  • Values and cultural preferences
  • How they think and learn
  • Relevant personality dimensions
  • Situational motivators and potential “derailers”

A Candidate Blueprint is most effective when it is evaluated in the context of a Situation Diagnostic profile.  At the end of the day taking a more data-driven approach to assessing talent fit improves a placement’s retention and performance.
