The Science Behind Our Hiring Solutions
The foundation of Cangrade’s
talent intelligence
Our science team waded through decades of research on personality, motivation, aptitude, job performance, and job satisfaction to pinpoint the most robust predictors of job performance and satisfaction.
We discovered that all of these strong predictors were personality traits and soft skills. The next step was determining the right questions to ask to ensure our measurements were both valid and reliable.
After years of extensive testing across millions of data points from thousands of organizations, we’ve honed in on the key questions that needed to be asked to assess each of our 50 personality traits and soft skills.
Our analytic approach to talent intelligence
Every person has a unique set of characteristics that make them successful and happy in a job. Each job has a unique set of characteristics that make people happy and successful in it. But these qualities and characteristics don’t occur in a vacuum. They exist together in a messy combination, interacting to produce outcomes.
Our AI algorithms account for these interactions by seeking holistic fit. They use a heuristic approach, simulating complex human analysis strategies using cutting-edge Machine Learning techniques, to continuously optimize models that produce success and remove bias using our patented process.
