Profiling Without Position Description and Job Setup Forms
Though the position description and setup is important, we can help even if you don't have one
by Dave Marr

It’s 4:15 p.m. and your candidate is across the hallway, settling in for her first job interview with your company. Because you have to catch a 6 p.m. flight, you’ve prepared everything in advance – the employment application, the Omnia Profile®, and your list of preliminary questions.

As she begins the Profile, you realize that a position description does not exist for this job. You need profile results right away. What should you do?

A Position Description and Job Set-up form takes only about 10 minutes to complete and is vitally important if you want your candidate compared to specific duties and traits. But if you simply don’t have time, or if you feel a more general overview would be helpful in your hiring decision, consider sending us the profile for a general writeup.

A general writeup contains all the features of a regular profile, but omits the Omina Compatibility Rating (OCR), Omnia Environmental Compatibility Rating (OECR) and Omnia Vocational Compatibility Rating (OVCR). These scores are available only when we compare a candidate or existing employee to a specific position description.

If you want to get a feel for your candidate’s personality tendencies, how she prefers to operate in the workplace, and what motivates her, a general writeup should suit your needs. Simply indicate general writeup below the subject’s name before faxing. For Internet profiles, general writeup is always available as an option in the position description box.

Contact your service consultant today for more information about a general writeup!
