How the BQO & PQO Have Helped Our Clients

 

Selecting project managers for a global engineering company using a combination of the Personality Questionnaire Online (PQO) and an in-depth hiring interview


An engineering company specialized in customized automation machines approached us for help with the selection of experienced project managers. A two-stage selection process was implemented comprised of the Personality Questionnaire Online (PQO) and an in-depth hiring interview.

All applicants complete the Personality Questionnaire Online (PQO) in a first step. The most promising candidates are then invited to an in-depth hiring interview. The Personality Questionnaire Online and the hiring interview are highly intertwined – the competencies and questions used in the interview are based on the results of the Personality Questionnaire Online (PQO), making it possible to respond to each applicant individually in order to make an accurate hiring decision.

The implementation of the selection process described above has led to considerable savings in time and money while greatly improving the quality of the new hires.
