Workplace behavior is a matter of choice

Our assessment methodology explores what behavioral tools the external or internal candidate uses to address the three dimensions of organizational collaboration/leadership

the operational framework (how the company works, incorporation)
day-to-day progress (setting goals, meeting plans) and
managing situations of uncertainty (decision-making, risk-taking).

These tools are a combination of previous work experience, personal successes and failures, individual motivation, and willingness to take on tasks and roles.

We use three action tasks to identify behavior;

our methodology is not a self-descriptive questionnaire. Candidates decide which behaviors they choose to adopt when completing the tasks, and we monitor these choices.

Obtain tangible data on:

whether they are prepared to challenge existing rules or prefer a strictly regulated environment.
whether they require micro-management or are micro-managers themselves.
do they prefer to delegate or do they want to solve tasks and problems themselves.
how tolerant they are of time pressure or do they overwork themselves at the risk of burn-out
how much they are carried away by events or how much they are the ones who set and pursue goals.

Choose the new generation of testing and equip yourself with greater insights into leader profiles.

REPORT STRUCTURE

The rank table

Wellbeing, work safety, task variance

Rank – it is calculated based on the candidate result data by the three measurement methods and makes the individual results comparable independently from the date and candidate group at any time when workprobes.online are taken.

The competency map

Success Enablers

Our competency map serves as a powerful tool to identify the extent to which competencies facilitate the seamless incorporation, daily progress, and problem-solving capabilities of candidates. By mapping the essential skills and behaviors, we uncover the enablers that drive success and ensure a strong foundation for individuals to thrive in their roles.

The platform offers a unique feature: the ability to visually compare the competency maps of two or three candidates. This functionality allows for a side-by-side analysis, enabling easy evaluation and comparison of the strengths and areas for development of each candidate's competencies.

Graphs and descriptions -
Integration profile

Individual results – the graphical and detailed description of the factor values, supporting managers and HR personnel to prepare for interviews and the onboarding “strategy” - what tasks, which groups the associates are best to be assigned to, and how much support from the leader and the team is required to complete their daily work.

Workprobes.online uses associates' evaluations to define leaders' roles and priorities.
Each area of collaboration has its own factors.
The left side (blue) of each graph shows leadership intervention required to mobilize the associate to succeed. The right side (green) represents the results of the associate.
In the middle of the graph there is a gray area representing the “average”- Results belonging to this area represent a normal, free of conflicts and problems collaboration between the leader and the associate.

Author's note

Workprobes.online is bias-free and non-discriminatory. It has been validated by retests and correlated with real life performance.

Case Studies

MAKE THE MATCH - sales case

Successful salespeople are best at selling themselves to a company.

When assigned to the workprobes.online in the selection process, a candidate called me saying “it is not a test, workprobes.online requires real work. There are no questions, just tasks to execute. Are you sure, you have sent me the right test?“.

Yes, I was sure, as the future boss could be sure, that hiring this candidate would lead to conflicts because of the discrepancies between promises and real achievements, route planned and accomplished, the number of strong prospects and the number of contracts signed.

BUILD COMMITMENT - Coding and business analytics courses

Applying workprobes.online in two consecutive groups of 19 and 17 people we could establish a strong correlation between staying in the program and the perseverance factor value.

In case of the second group, professors were able to retain 80% of students who then achieved their diplomas.

With insights gained through early indications of perseverance, Professors had personalized guidelines to students in danger of leaving the program.

MAKE THE MATCH - Call center

With above average turnover, CC company applied workprobes.online in their exit interviews. There were three work attributes that were identified and associated with turnover in CC position. The first factor identified was tolerance for monotony, the ability and willingness to respond to the same questions the same way, the whole day. The second critical factor was rule following; whether the associates hold to the script and can close a conversation in the time given. The third critical factor was perseverance; the ability to answer the calls with the same enthusiasm even in the 8th hour of a shift, on the 5th day of the working week.

These three attributes were threshold factors while handling conflicts, empathy and persuasive ability only became success factors in candidates with the threshold attributes.

BUILD COMMITMENT – Onboarding

A Production case study

Shift leaders face continual challenges of meeting operation demand and the best fit of their people with specific tasks.

Outcomes of the workprobes.online informs the leader of the best placement and coaching for a newcomer and also provides a guide to suitability of assignments related to routine and repetitive tasks, or more challenging problem solving. Less trial and error, means greater productivity and employee satisfaction.

DRIVE RESULTS - A case with happy ending

A seventeen-year-old was let go from her position as a janitor at a department store.

When examined by workprobes.online, the results revealed that consequences aren’t a priority for her. However, if provided with concrete, finite tasks, she will be able to complete these tasks within the time given.

When we dug further, we found that if the department store were to break the job position into hour long task blocks, the girl would have been able to complete all tasks within the time given.

The only and each time the problem surfaced was at the end of every shift, when the girl had not done anything – and there wasn’t an opportunity for supervision, so they had to let her go.

The story has a happy ending however – based on our recommendations, she was hired by a packaging plant, where her job is facilitated by machines and other employees, who motivate her and help her prioritize tasks. She has worked there since.
