Application
The Profiles Sales Assessment (PSA) is an advanced psychometric test specifically designed to assess candidates' sales skills and potential. This test measures cognitive abilities, behavioral preferences, and professional interests, evaluating them in relation to sales-focused roles. The PSA can be customized with a job model (standard or customized) to accurately determine the suitability of candidates for specific commercial roles. This assessment is an essential tool for coaches, trainers, HR professionals, and recruitment specialists seeking top sales talent.
Reliability and Validity
The Profiles Sales Assessment has been repeatedly tested for reliability and has a Cronbach's Alpha score of 0.80 per scale, indicating high consistency in measurements. The test also undergoes regular validation processes to ensure that it accurately measures what it should and performs well compared to other recognized measurement instruments.
Usage Advice
The PSA is designed to provide in-depth insights and support gut feelings with hard data, leading to meaningful discussions and better decisions. We recommend considering the results of the PSA as a third party in the selection of candidates, providing a balanced approach where both quantitative and qualitative data play a role.
Features

How Does It Work?
-
Invite
The participant receives an email invitation to take the test. This invitation is sent by the test administrator from the EPIC system. If the test is administered on-site, the test administrator can also set it up on a local computer.
-
Schedule
The participant decides for themselves where and when to take the test. The test administrator can set a maximum deadline for completing the test in the EPIC system. Specific arrangements may apply when administering the test on-site.
-
Report
Upon completion of the test, the test administrator receives an email confirmation, and the desired reports are immediately generated. In the EPIC system, the test administrator can set whether these reports are also automatically sent to the participant. There is a wide range of reports available that the test administrator can select and configure. Subsequently, the test results are discussed and applied, depending on the specific process and services offered by the test administrator.
