Every person you recruit into your business has the potential to strengthen your organisation or weaken it. PRISM Job Benchmarking is the science of clearly defining superior performance in a role and then using objective criteria to help determine which candidate would be the 'best fit'. In essence, it is the science of matching the person who is most suitable for the vacancy in terms of behavioural strengths, work aptitude and work environment preferences.

PRISM Job Benchmarking is a simple process that will ultimately help you to identify those candidates who have high performance potential for specific roles in your organisation. It is a process that goes deeper than conventional recruitment methods and creates not only a comprehensive picture of which candidate is most suitable, but also clarifies those elements of the job that are critical for performance excellence. It is not designed to identify or measure a candidate's eligibility for a role.

PRISM Job Benchmarking is based on a number of well validated academic studies and provides businesses with a coherent, reliable and consistent analytical framework for helping to make good recruitment decisions. However, it is not only for new employees, it is also ideal for promotions and anytime a business considers moving a person from one job to another – or maybe just changing someone’s duties or tasks.

Any profiling tool, such as PRISM, should never be used to make a recruitment or re-deployment decision unsupported by other techniques.
