How Profiling is used

🧠 About your profile

What is a brain profile?

📄 How it’s used for job applications

First, we understand the role

Through ploomo’s Role Profiling assessment, the organisation you are applying to is supported to identify what personality characteristics are critical to the role. This helps to ensure they select an individual who is well aligned with the role’s requirements, leading to a higher likelihood for the successful applicant to be engaged in the role.

Second, we understand you

Organisations will request you to complete the ploomo Brain Profiling assessment to get a deeper understanding of how you prefer to think, apply yourself, communicate and interact with others. This information is provided to the organisation you are applying for upon your permission.

Finally, we put it together

ploomo uses both your assessment results and the roles profile to identify the areas your brain profile aligns with the role requirements, highlighting areas you may be well aligned and areas you will benefit from support.

👥 How it's used for current employees

The results from your brain profile assessment can be used in several different scenarios within your company.

Understanding your brain profile information can help your company across a number of important areas. By identifying your unique archetype, your company can gain insights into your natural preferences, behaviours, and ways of thinking. This information helps them predict how you might react in certain situations and allows them to tailor your work experience to your strengths and interests. By understanding your preferences, ploomo can support your manager and colleagues to better communicate and interact with you, and help you apply yourself to work and tasks in a way that suits you best.

To build connection

By taking the assessment, your Company can gain a deeper understanding of your unique brain profile, including your natural tendencies, behaviors, and ways of thinking. This knowledge is not only personally empowering to help you identify your strengths and develop strategies to work more effectively, communicate more clearly, and build stronger relationships with colleagues, but equips your manager and colleagues with the best ways to support your development and foster an environment tailored to you.

For your engagement and development

By tailoring the work experience to your strengths and preferences, ploomo's solution can help you feel more engaged and connected to your work and colleagues. The insights gained through the assessment aim to help improve communication and collaboration, leading to a more positive and supportive work environment. This, in addition to regular engagement surveys that assess how you are feeling at particular points in time, ensures that action is taken to improve critical factors that may be affecting your overall happiness at work.

To support succession planning and promotions

ploomo's solution can also help ensure that you are the best fit for a particular role. By analyzing your brain profile, we can gain insights into your natural tendencies and how they align with the requirements of a particular role, be it your current one or future roles within your company.

For example, if a role requires a high level of attention to detail and organization, we can identify whether those are areas you have strong preferences for. This information can help you and your manager determine whether the role is a good fit for you and can help you prepare for the role by developing strategies to work more effectively in areas that may impede your engagement if done for extended periods of time. By understanding your natural tendencies and preferences, we can help ensure that you are placed in a role where you can excel and feel fulfilled.
