PROFILER · Profile and basis for conversation
Understand the person, not only the type.
Many personality tests put people in a box. PROFILER can see patterns in context: what the person wants, believes and does when something is at stake. The result is a good basis for a conversation, which a person reviews before it is used.
- What is it?
- An online questionnaire and a profile that opens in the browser.
- Who uses it?
- HR, managers, coaches and advisers who need to talk with a person about development or a new role.
- And the person?
- The person answers themselves, owns their profile, and the result is reviewed in a conversation with the person.
- What does it require?
- A link and a little peace. The questions are chosen according to what you want to understand.
How it works
From purpose to a basis for conversation
STEP 01
Starts with the purpose
First you agree what you want to understand, for example how a new manager lands in the role.
STEP 02
Asks the right questions
The person answers what is important, and what they do in certain situations.
STEP 03
Finds patterns
PROFILER shows patterns and differences, and how confident it is.
STEP 04
Becomes a conversation
A professional reviews the result with the person, and you agree what it is to be used for.

Behind PROFILER
How are the questions chosen?
You choose the use, for example a first leadership role, onboarding, starting a team or career clarification. The purpose determines the themes, and only what is relevant to the question is included. The number of questions follows the need for information.
What kinds of questions are there?
Short statements, choices between equally attractive statements, situations from working life and free text. The language is simple, and all answers are valid. The formats make it hard to answer what you think is right, and give a more honest picture.
How do the answers become patterns?
The answers become patterns: when the person works best, what challenges them, and how new demands are interpreted. Every statement carries its source, method and version, and PROFILER distinguishes between observation, interpretation and hypothesis.
Why does a person review the result?
The patterns are working hypotheses that depend on situation and role. A facilitator reviews them with the person, and they are confirmed, adjusted or set aside. The person adds the context only the person knows.
What is Capability?
Where it makes sense, Capability can supplement with short tasks that show how the person solves them within defined cognitive, emotional and social abilities. PROFILER and Capability are kept apart, and Capability is under professional validation.
What is the professional basis?
The questions follow a fixed psychometric standard and have been reviewed for bias and loaded words, with a professional basis from among others TT38. PROFILER can be used on its own or as the foundation under ATTRACT and Ajuna.
Can PROFILER be used in recruitment?
Yes, as support for a human assessment. PROFILER delivers a basis for conversation with observations and open questions rather than combined scores.
Use the profile as the start of the dialogue.
In a short meeting we clarify your challenges and the solutions that fit. We deliver directly to companies and public organisations, or through a partner.
Together we clarify purpose, data sources, validation and responsible use. PROFILER is often part of Recruitment & matching, Onboarding & retention, Wellbeing & work environment. See the technology behind →
