OUR STRATEGIC PARTNER...

To better help us embody "the essence of success," we have partnered with the leading assessment company in the world, Profiles International, whose online assessments are truly state of the art.

Profiles International was founded in 1991 due to an unsatisfied business need that was having a negative effect on many companies. Traditional hiring and training methods were not effective. American business was slipping from #1 in the world and companies were bloated with marginally-productive employees.

Profiles International consulted with many occupational psychologists and human resource executives and discovered a weak link in the system: The goal of "putting the right person in the right job" was more a dream than a reality. Although many companies use testing to hire people, most of the tests are decades old and based on outdated research. Many of the most commonly used tests, they also discovered, were developed for clinical use and were illegal to use for hiring purposes.

Profiles International began searching to find products and services that would satisfy the modern needs of business. Their research led to the discovery of several exciting new evaluation instruments that employ the latest research and technology. These are the products selected by Profiles International, Ohio State University, and Successence. They are the reason Profiles International has become the fastest growing company in the personnel assessment industry.
