Review: The DISC Profile


Listen Later

DISCOVER WHAT DRIVES YOU YOUR CANDIDATES
More than two million people have taken the 15-minute DISC assessment to better understand their personality type and behavioral style. Developed by psychologist William Moulton Marston, the DISC assessment examines how an individual ranks in the four areas of behavior – Dominance, Influence, Steadiness and Conscientiousness. Designed for both individuals who want to identify and maximize their strengths and motivators, and organizations looking to integrate high-performance teams.

If you're a hiring, then this is a tool you should at least know about. Mis-hires are expensive and disruptive and you want to hire the best person. For that reason, companies use psychometric profiles of various sorts.
