Talent Acquisition & Optimization

Your organization is only as strong as your people. When people are in the right roles, they’re happier, more engaged and more productive. When they use their natural strengths, people perform better as individuals and within their teams, and high performers can achieve their full potential.
Oliver Group can help you optimize your talent through scientifically validated, data-driven assessments to align talent selection and development practices with your long-term strategic goals. Our approach places people in the roles they’re best suited for and helps you manage them to be their best. In turn, you gain a higher chance of success and better performance throughout your workforce – optimizing outcomes.
Assessment tools at a glance

As a PI Certified Partner, we have the tools to help you understand your people so they can be most effective within your organization.

Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment® A behavioral tool that measures what uniquely motivates and drives people so you can predict on-the-job behavior, be a better manager and communicate more effectively.
Predictive Index Cognitive Assessment® A cognitive ability assessment that measures an individual’s ability to learn quickly, adapt to changing circumstances and grasp new concepts in the workplace.
Predicting job
performance

The PI Behavioral Assessment is related to workplace outcomes such as tenure, turnover, sales and customer satisfaction— claims backed by evidence from nearly 500 criterion-related validity studies.
The assessment is bias free. Every study in the last 20 years has shown that PI Behavioral Assessment scores do not differ based on age, gender or ethnicity.
When used together, the PI Behavioral Assessment and PI Learning Indicator increase your chances of predicting on-the-job performance by eight times.
Optimizing your
employees
Our solutions help you do more than make decisions about new hires. They can also aid you in developing people and leading teams.
