Success Story

Talascend’s client, a world class manufacturer of automotive components, was struggling to identify a Quality Engineer who had both the required technical competencies and the attributes to effectively move between concurrent projects at any given time.

To assist in finding the right candidate, Talascend initiated the advanced profiling assessment on candidates who were selected for second stage interviews. Within one week, top candidates completed their assessments and Talascend’s certified consultant presented the results to the client which included highlighting the traits and patterns which would inhibit or prohibit the candidate’s flexibility and effectiveness to move between several projects at any one time.

The results supported the initial thoughts of the client regarding each candidate’s suitability for the role. The comprehensive profile, in conjunction with the feedback from the technical interview, allowed the client to make a more informed decision on which candidate to progress to offer stage.

The personality profile assessment implemented through Talascend was instrumental in helping our client find the ‘best-fit’ talent for the vital role.
