Join more than 35,000 other companies that already use Profiles assessments to position their human capital where it pays the greatest rewards… in productivity… in lowering stress, tension, and conflict… in creating more effective communication… and in motivating significant, measurable, bottom line growth. If you already use assessments, or if you are just considering their use, you’ve come to the right place to get information to make the best decision. Here is an outline of the essentials: The Profiles International Business Philosophy Profiles International's People Profiles International's Products Profiles International's Internet Delivery System Profiles International's Client Services The Profiles International Code of Ethics Profiles International’s Pricing Policy Profiles International's Custom Product Development The Profiles International Business Philosophy When we formed Profiles International, Inc., we had several well-defined, specific goals: Goal #1: Convince every business that their most valuable asset is their people. While most organizations say their number one asset is their people, their actions and policies don’t necessarily show it. We want to establish this principle as an immutable truth in the minds of all business leaders, owners, and managers. Goal #2: Help companies solve “People Problems.” Companies may experience two kinds of problems: Systems Problems and People Problems. Systems problems can be expensive to fix, but can usually be satisfactorily resolved. People problems are just as costly, but they are often more difficult to deal with. In fact, people problems never “just go away.” They must be confronted and conquered. A business that has both systems and people problems faces a serious threat to its survival. Goal #3: Always be true to our corporate conscience. Profiles is a business with a corporate conscience. We take very seriously, our responsibility to serve the business community effectively because mistakes in employee selection are horrendously expensive. When an employee is misplaced there are two victims: First, the employer has the expense of paying and supporting an ineffective employee and, second, the employee pays the price of failure. Then, tragically, when the ineffective employee is replaced, it’s not likely the replacement will perform any better. Goal #4: Provide employment assessments that reveal personal strengths rather than shortcomings. People succeed in business because of their strengths, the attributes that make them good at what they do. While this may sound like a statement of the obvious, employers sometimes are overly concerned with weak points and can miss an opportunity to hire or reassign to new duties, an employee with great potential. Profiles assessments provide a thorough and comprehensive assessment of a person’s strengths, giving you important information for making your best decisions. Goal #5: Create a system that serves the best interest of employers, employees, and potential employees. Profiles knows you can, with a high degree of certainty, select the right people for your jobs. The “Profiles Process” begins with a thorough analysis of the job to accurately define the qualities necessary for success. When people are hired who perform work that aligns with their strengths, everything becomes easier. Goal #6: Give support to business leaders and managers to help them achieve their purpose. Our products provide information for understanding, motivating, and communicating with people. Managers, typically, spend as much as 60% of their day wrestling with the frustration of people problems. By handling people problems more effectively, or avoiding them altogether, managers spend more time working to reach corporate goals. Goal #7: Help companies hire people for life. When the people you hire fit your organization, fit their jobs, and find their places in your succession plans, you have hired most of them for life. They not only become top performers in your business, but there is seldom a reason for them to leave. Goal #8: Create the best assessment products in the world – and maintain their high quality through a system of continuous revalidation. Profiles International’s research has resulted in a suite of scientifically developed products that employers are using to put the right people into jobs and keep them for life. We strive to improve our products through a never-ending process of revalidation studies and “fine-tuning.” In this way, we provide our clients with the most accurate assessments in the world. Profiles International's People Our people are, in a sense, an advantage Profiles offers its clients. When you become a Profiles client, you have the talents, the strength, and the stability of our staff – 150 people in our office park, occupying 55,000 square feet of prime office space. We are here to stay and here to serve you. Profiles people are thinking about you, thinking about your business, thinking of ways to make our assessments better, and thinking about how they can better serve your needs to make your life easier. You can build a genuine relationship with the people who serve you, not talk to someone different each time you call. Whatever your level in your company, from H.R. executive to a CEO, Profiles people are here to help you achieve your objectives. We have Research and Development people who anticipate market needs and respond to client requests by creating new products and updating our tried and true assessments. Our Client Service account executives provide direct customer service, providing valuable information and handling the concerns of our clients. We develop the skills of our employees through our professional internal Training and Development department. Our Information and Technology staff is second to none, maintaining several Internet sites, and performing numerous tasks that keep Profiles on the cutting edge of technology. Either directly or indirectly, all of these home office people are working to serve the needs of Profiles International's clients. We also have nearly 1,000 Profiles professionals who are located in every region of the world – not just in the United States and Canada – but also in 90 other countries. This means that you can be confident that Profiles has the ability to provide “high-touch” and “high-tech” services wherever you are. We are proud of our record as an employer. We have attracted great people, carefully selected for the duties they perform. Since our founding in 1991, Profiles has had an average of less than 4% annual employee turnover. A substantial part of this turnover consists of employees who left us when their “significant others” graduated from Baylor University and accepted jobs outside of the Waco community. Profiles International Human Resource Solutions Whatever your Human Resource assessment needs, Profiles is your single source provider. Profiles suite of occupational assessments and related products makes it easy for your people to learn and use a system that meets your needs and serves you in an excellent manner. Because of the similarity in the way Profiles assessments are administered and processed, when your people learn to use one of our assessments, they know how to use all of them. They don’t have to learn multiple systems. This is another reason we should be your assessment partner. Success in a business depends upon identifying a problem and devising a strategy for fixing it. This has been Profiles objective since the company’s beginning. Profiles is conscientious about keeping abreast of business trends and seeking the counsel of futurists who alert us to “the next big thing in business.” While we are always reactive to client needs, we also strive to be proactive and anticipate those needs. If you seek information to be used in a wide-range of human resources applications including: Determining the prerequisites for success in your company’s jobs Making training and coaching more effective Succession planning Measuring job candidates for success potential Asking meaningful interview questions in the selection process Promoting the right people Improving communication Profiles International has a multi-purpose “Total Person Concept” assessment that is, in reality, a battery of assessments to measure a variety of job-related attributes. It provides you with several types of reports at no extra cost – reports for personal development, placement, succession planning, candidate matching, coaching, and job analysis. Be sure to ask about the Profile XT. To prevent employee related problems such as: Lack of work ethic Substance abuse Tardiness and lack of responsibility Theft and fraud Ask for information about the Step One Survey II™. It’s a tool for hiring people you can trust.

Using these assessments is a wise investment in your employees – your organization’s most valuable asset. More about human resource management and our human resource solutions here. More Information about Profiles Assessments Measure the Total Person - An extremely important feature found in several of our products is that we measure the total person. We measure the three most important dimensions of human beings. We measure thinking and reasoning which is essential to knowing how to train people effectively. We measure behavioral traits because top performers in any position will have behavioral traits in common. And we measure occupational interests because people perform much better when they are interested in the work they are assigned and find it challenging at a motivational level. Even if a person has never done a certain kind of work, you may find that with a bit of training they will perform very well on the job if it fits their motivational interests. Multiple Reports For the Same Cost - Most Profiles assessments generate more than one type of report, making them multi-use management tools. You never pay more for additional reports so you can get additional information without additional expense. Suggested Interview Questions - A special feature of Profiles assessments used for placement is suggested interview questions. Too often, interviewers are not sure of the questions that should be asked of a job candidate. Placement decisions are often made on first impressions (experts say in the first five minutes of an interview) and the rest of the interview may consist of the interviewer talking about the job, the company, and, generally, talking the candidate into coming to work for the business. Meanwhile, the job candidate largely remains an unknown quantity. The assessment report aids the interview process because it identifies areas of concern with regard to a candidates’ qualifications and it suggests questions to help an interviewer learn essential information that is needed for making good placement decisions. Eliminate Common Hiring Mistakes - A common hiring error occurs when an employer senses an eagerness on the part of a job candidate and mistakes it for an interest in doing the job. So many people want the money, not the work, and they’ll leave a job they’ve only tolerated and take the same job with your company thinking that it will be different. After an initial burst of enthusiasm, the newness of the environment wears off and they dislike your job more than they disliked the job they left. They already found the job unpleasant and now they get mad at themselves for another bad career decision – and that's when the bloom comes off the rose. Solve Employee Performance and Attitude Problems - Management guru Peter Drucker has estimated that two of three hiring decisions will prove to be a mistake during the new employee’s first year. Sometimes the employee can be terminated, or quits, but all too often they are allowed to stay on the payroll and are a drag on an organization’s overall productivity. They are also often the source of problems that management must resolve. An employee whose performance is marginal is likely to have a bad attitude toward his or her work – an attitude that can contaminate others. Using Profiles products helps to keep the “bad apple” syndrome out of your business. Scientifically Designed for Business - All Profiles products are scientifically driven. They have all been developed specifically for business use. Our products are client-driven. We have focus groups of clients looking at what we do and our clients help us make our assessments better. Our products are validated and revalidated using people in the workplace. Any other assessment company would consider an assessment validation study using 1,000 subjects as a huge study. In our most current validation study, 200,000 working people took part. Regular and Consistent Revalidation - We validate more than once for a good reason – because assessments can't be allowed to get old. Old is not good in the assessment business because language is not static and assessments are made up of words. The meanings of words change, sometimes quite rapidly, and when meanings change, it can affect how people respond to a questions in an assessment, invalidating the question. If enough questions change, the entire assessment may become invalid. That’s why Profiles regularly and consistently revalidates all of our products, question by question. Whenever necessary, revisions are promptly made. Customized Job Match Patterns - Some Profiles assessments create job match patterns that are customized to fit your company and its corporate culture. Job match patterns are used to assure the new people you hire will have many of the same job-related attributes as the people you have who are productive and doing an all-around good job for you. While Profiles does not design job descriptions, data contained in assessment reports can be used to give your job descriptions greater utility and purpose. You can also use the information as a starting point for creating new job descriptions. Available on the Internet and Paper/Pencil - Profiles is responsive to our clients’ needs and can easily adapt to individual situations. Although our products are available almost everywhere via the Internet, clients occasionally have assessment needs beyond the reach of the World Wide Web. In this situation, Profiles provides assessment booklets in PDF format for paper/pencil use, at no charge. Easy Integration and Flexibility - Flexibility is the word, too, when it comes to using a Virtual Assessment Center. If your business has more than one location, you can choose whether you want to operate from one corporate Virtual Assessment Center or have a Center for each location. You could, if you wish, set up separate centers for each department within your company. In short, Profiles can custom design a system that fits your style and meets your needs. If your company has an HRIS, Profiles products are designed to be easily integrated into your system. Profiles International's Internet Delivery System Profiles pioneered the assessment industry in the use of the Internet as a delivery system. We provide our clients with their own Virtual Assessment Centers that are individually branded with each client’s name. In effect, this means our clients have a recruiting office, an employment office, and HR department that operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and are available from anywhere in the world. We employ the latest technology to make the Virtual Assessment Centers convenient to use and user-friendly. Whenever we develop system improvements, they are immediately deployed and provided at no additional cost. With Internet security issues as they are, Profiles has called on a leading Internet business to provide the most reliable confidentiality and system protection for our clients. In addition to our home-based system, Profiles is supported by duplicate systems in San Antonio, Texas and London, England. The multiple locations not only enhance security, but provide worldwide load balancing, assuring that our clients’ Virtual Assessment Centers are always online and available for use by thousands of users at a time. In addition to multi-site system redundancy, our clients’ data is guarded by the latest encryption technology, an impenetrable firewall, a frequent backup schedule, and a multi-level, guaranteed disaster recovery process. In short, Profiles has taken every step possible to assure universal access, system reliability, and data protection. Profiles International's Client Services Profiles International's Client Service is “high touch – high-tech.” If our clients ever need our people to work with them face-to-face, we can – at the touch of the telephone – be with them and discuss anything they need in the way of client service. Our client service professionals completely train our clients on every aspect of using assessments, getting maximum benefits. Upon becoming a Profiles client, you are assigned an account executive to show you how to utilize each product to its full extent and for the greatest benefits. With Profiles, you are never in the situation of not knowing how to use something you’ve bought. Over time, you, too, will become an expert on getting the most from assessments. Training is our specialty. Profiles will spend whatever time is necessary to completely train as many people in your organization as you wish. Typically, it is desirable to have everyone in HR properly familiarized and trained. But many clients want all executives involved in hiring to be conversant with assessment reports and their uses. Many firms find it beneficial to decentralize the hiring process and keep from overloading their HR departments. Profiles can facilitate the transition effectively and efficiently. The Profiles International Code of Ethics Profiles strives to maintain the highest ethical business standards. We are proud to have received the Torch Award for business ethics from the Better Business Bureau. Sometimes a client, or a potential client, may question the ethics or legality of using assessment products, perhaps because of “invasion of privacy” concerns. We carefully follow the U.S. Department of Labor’s guide to good practices regarding the use of assessments, and we help our clients meet the standards of the Department of Labor’s 13 Principles of Assessment as they apply to using Profiles products. You should be aware that the Department of Labor actually recommends using business assessments as a means of maintaining objectivity and avoiding illegal discrimination in an employer’s relations with job candidates and employees. You may obtain the Department of Labor’s “Testing and Assessment: An Employer’s Guide to Good Practices” on the Internet by clicking here. For a short summary of the Department of Labor’s 13 Principles of Assessment, click here.Profiles International has employed an attorney that specializes in employment law to thoroughly research the various laws regarding the use of business-related assessments. The results of this research are available in a Legal Opinion Letter that you may obtain by request. You may also be interested in viewing Profiles’ Mission Statement, Vision Statement, and Values Statement. Profiles International’s Pricing Policy Profiles International employment assessments are mid-market priced. They are not cheap, nor are they the most expensive products in the marketplace. We strive to provide the greatest value in the assessment industry. You can pay more or you can pay less for assessments, but, dollar for dollar, you cannot get any better results and benefits from any of our competitors. With the help of Profiles assessments, you will select better employees, manage and train them better, get higher productivity from them, minimize employee-related problems, and realize the tremendous advantages they provide.Profiles, on request, provides clients with an annual report estimating their return on investment by using Profiles products.

Profiles has two basic levels of pricing. You may buy our products individually priced, by the assessment, or you may find an advantage in entering into a contractual pricing arrangement that offers unlimited usage of the products you select.
