Benchmarking Jobs & Matching Top Talent
How can you discover the specific talents required by
a job and
match them to the talents inherent in a person? Only through reports
that will give you an accurate reading of the behaviors and values
common to both the job and the person — Job Insights and Talent
Insights!
Job Insights Will Benchmark the Job
All jobs have unique requirements for behavior. For example, the behavior
required by a customer service job's work environment would likely include
tactful decision making, contacting many people, patience, being diplomatic and cooperative.
These behaviors can be determined by the results of the Job Insights questionnaire,
produced by the people who know the job. The result of this benchmarking
process is a set of bar graphs that define required, job-related behaviors
such as: frequent Interaction with others, customer oriented, versatility,
frequent change, urgency, competitiveness, organized workplace, and analysis
of data.
In addition, all jobs have inherent rewards and a predominant culture
that drive performance excellence. When the job's rewards/culture
are in line with the person performing the job, then the result is
performance excellence. For example, one of a customer service job's rewards
may be expressed as "gaining personal satisfaction by performing the
job consistently the right way, according to a predefined set of
rules and procedures." People whose values, or motivators, are in
line with that job's rewards will excel.
Talent Insights Will Determine the Candidate’s
Talent
People have unique behaviors that can be matched to jobs, but seldom
are! When a person's behaviors are in sync with a job's, the result is
increased performance and employee satisfaction. Common behaviors range
from outgoing and assertive, to soft-spoken, mild and reserved; from adventurous
and daring, to controlled and restrained, and everything in between. The
job applicants who complete the Talent Insights report respond
to questions that define these unique behaviors. The result is a set of
bar graphs that indicate where the respondent falls within the scale of
common job-related behaviors: frequent interaction with others, customer
oriented, versatility, frequent change, urgency, competitiveness, organized
workplace, analysis of data.
Like jobs, people have inherent values, or motivators, that drive their
behaviors. Talent Insights helps to define those as well, such
as "desiring a return on investment of time and money," and "finding
personal rewards in continuous learning."
Match the Talent to the Job
The right talent in the right job equals top performance and employee
satisfaction, which is exactly what every company wants! After completing
the job benchmark with Job Insights, and defining talent with Talent
Insights, you have a total of 14 separate factors that are key to
