\"\"<\/a>We\u2019ve started a new tradition here at Big 5 Assessments of highlighting a\u00a0\u201cReseller of the Month.\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0With so many resellers (we now have over 20 resellers around the globe ), it\u2019s hard to choose just one, but February\u2019s honour goes to (drum roll, please) \u2026People Traits<\/strong><\/p>\n

We first started working with Paul Logan founder of People Traits<\/a> in the \"\"<\/a>summer of 2016, and have been very impressed with his\u00a0dedication and enthusiasm.<\/p>\n

Based on rigorous psychology and scientific method, People Traits provide online pre-employment psychometric assessments for recruiters, Hiring Managers and HR Professionals to identify future talent, look beyond the CV and objectively improve their recruitment effectiveness.<\/p>\n

Now for a little Q&A with Paul Logan from People Traits <\/strong><\/p>\n

What does a typical day look like at the People Traits Head Office?<\/strong><\/p>\n

A typical day for us will usually involve dealing with a number\u00a0of requests for free trials<\/a> of the assessments.\u00a0 Setting up these\u00a0trials and then providing feedback on the results, when the trial\u00a0has been completed, is one of our main activities.\u00a0 Setting up\u00a0assessments for new clients, using the Applicant Manager\u00a0software also occupies some time.\u00a0 Some clients ask us to\u00a0manage an assessment process on their behalf and we are happy\u00a0to do this.<\/p>\n

Tell us a bit more about the people\u00a0behind People Traits?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The directors of Big 5 Assessments have strong backgrounds in\u00a0psychology and the learning environment, with a combined\u00a0experience in learning of over 40 years. We have also been\u00a0involved in business for many years and have recruited and\u00a0managed staff in large organisations over many years, so we\u00a0appreciate the importance to client of what we are trying to do\u00a0in assisting them to recruit and retain the right people to help\u00a0them maintain and grow their businesses.<\/p>\n

You mentioned that ‘two heads are better than one, and using People Traits\u2019 assessments is like having an expert in the room with you\u2019.\u00a0Can you\u00a0elaborate on this?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Our assessments are firmly rooted in psychological theory\u00a0using best practise methods as defined by the British\u00a0Psychological Society and put all the expertise of psychologists\u00a0at your disposal in selecting the right candidate.\u00a0 The\u00a0assessments will provide you with an objective, scientific\u00a0evaluation of your candidates to help you make the right hiring\u00a0decision. Our assessments are reliable and powerful\u00a0predictors of career performance, and give a consistent insight\u00a0into a candidate\u2019s strengths and behaviours.<\/p>\n

What exciting new projects are you currently working on?<\/strong><\/p>\n

One of the most exciting things we are currently working on is the implementation, with our partner company People Clues; of a new range of assessments aimed at graduates and younger people to assist them in understanding what careers and type of job might best suit their abilities and personalities.\u00a0 We hope to be able to direct clients, based on an analysis of their assessment results, directly to appropriate areas of the National Careers Database.<\/p>\n

Stay tuned\u00a0for\u00a0our next Reseller of the Month feature. <\/strong><\/p>\n
