Wouldn’t you love it if there was a sure fire, 100 per cent accurate tool that would guarantee hiring only the most suitable staff? Well, even though I would love to find it, I do not know of such a perfect device. But I will share with you highly effective tools for helping you make better, more informed hiring and management decisions.
Introducing DISC personality profiling….
The DISC system has been around for decades and was first introduced by Dr. William Moulton Marston, an American psychologist, and author of The Emotions of Normal People (1928).
The idea was to find the similarities in different personalities that could be measured and predicted, giving insights into which candidates may be best suited to a position. For example, if you are looking to hire another accounting clerk at your company, are not sure where to start and do not want to make another costly hiring mistake, consider using the DISC system. DISC profiling allows you to profile your best existing accounting staff to create a benchmark which will be used to compare future hires for suitability. As well, there are tools you can use to define the role and the ideal candidate from scratch. Either way, you come up with a specific profile of what you are looking for. Download
