What is CPpro? CPpro is designed for exempt, salaried employees. CPpro takes about 45 minutes to complete and assesses personality traits as well as cognitive abilities. The CPpro report includes a number of results. First, a one-page narrative includes problem-solving skills, emotional and motivational patterns, and interpersonal skills. Next, a chart measures where a person falls in relation to the 16 traits that make up a personality profile. And finally, potential assets and limitations of the candidate are described. For the limitations, the report gives interview suggestions to aid the employer in assessing the applicant. In addition, for each limitation, recommended training resources are provided for the individual's development. See Sample Report

What is CPbasic? CPbasic is designed to be used with entry-level employees. The testing takes approximately 20 minutes to complete and assesses personality traits for specific positions. You may choose to use a report already developed for a position, or work with us to develop one specific to your company. The CPbasic report consists of a chart plotting where a person falls in relation to traits deemed statistically relevant for that position, potential assets and limitations, and a Similarity Index.

What is a Peak Performer Profile? This concept was developed by ComputerPsychologist.com to ensure the highest degree of success in online testing. A company identifies its top performers and we test them in order to develop a profile of their personality traits and cognitive abilities. The prospective employee's results will then automatically be compared to the Profile created for that specific position.

What is the Similarity Index? The Similarity Index is based upon the Peak Performer Profile. When a candidate tests and their results are compared to the Peak Performer Profile, a number between 0 and 100 is generated to represent how similar a candidate is to the Profile.

Does this service replace the interview process? No, this process is not a replacement for interviews. Rather, it is an objective tool to enhance to interview process. Many companies use this tool after choosing a limited number of applicants. Testing then further reduces choices and enhances the interview process, so that interviewers' time and money are not wasted on unsuitable candidates.
