Behavioural profiling - Insight
We utilise two models for behavioural profiling - Insight and DISCus. Both tests evaluate the personality traits and behaviours of the tested candidate and provide a useful report to analyse either prior to selection, during interview or even at appraisal stage.
Both tests are completed online and can be set up to complete at home, at work or in your local Hays office.
Insight
What is Insight?
- The aim of Insight is to support you in your aims of matching a candidate’s personality to the personality of the job
-
Insight is Web based
- The Insights Jungian Discovery Model is Internationally well known and validated

Insight is not an assessment of Skills and should not be used as the sole basis for selection
