Thomas International
In today's highly competitive world, recruitment and retention strategies are of paramount importance.
For many years, psychometric tests have been regarded as a valuable business tool, their widespread use being linked to an increase in overall company profitability. Essentially, administered properly, they can be used as a valuable tool to gain an objective assessment of personal attributes, providing information that can often be very difficult to glean from a conventional interview. Having conducted an exhaustive review of all of the systems currently available, K2's qualified analyst has become licensed to administer the Thomas International Personal Profile Analysis (PPA) System, an internationally-recognised series of psychometric tests which, in our view, is the most accurate and reliable addition to the comprehensive service we offer to both our clients and candidates.
How the PPA system can benefit your organisation The PPA System can be used to provide:
Written Assessments These reports contain a comprehensive assessment of an individual's self image, work strengths and self-motivation, together with comments on job emphasis, current frustrations and what in their view makes the ideal boss!
Strengths and Limitations The section includes, in bullet-point form, a management summary of an individual's special strengths and possible limitations.
Executive Summary This easily digested, yet comprehensive, report provides the busy manager with a thorough appraisal of the person's characteristics. We can also administer the PPA System to assess current employees. In these instances, the information gleaned can be used to develop strategies in areas such as motivation, communication, support, delegation and disciplining. It can also be used in the identification of training needs, helping to maximise investment in training and development and thereby improving staff retention. The PPA System can also be used by candidates to assist in career planning and self-improvement.
