Master Person Analysis was first launched in 1987. The questionnaire was revised and updated in 2007.
Master Person Analysis consists of a questionnaire that forms the basis of a Person Profile with 9 Basic Properties. The Person Profile reveals a candidate’s typical behaviour. A Job Profile, composed of the same 9 Basic Properties, accompanies the Person Profile. The Job Profile provides an objective outline of the personal demands the tasks inherent in the job make on the candidate.
The questionnaire itself is structured around 40 question groups. Each group consists of 4 statements, or items. You are asked to tick off two statements in each question group; one which, in your opinion, portrays you most accurately, that is “most me” and the one you feel portrays you least accurately, “least me”. In all, you should make a total of 80 responses (ticks).
The Person Profile is measured against statistically determined norms, whereby your Person Profile can be compared with other Person Profiles.
No Person Profile is “good” or “bad” in itself. There are no absolutes. The Person Profile is evaluated according to the demands of the position being filled, that is the Job Profile.
In compliance with the ethical guidelines laid down by Master Management, the certified user must never allow the Person Profile to stand on its own. The Person Profile forms the basis of the subsequent interview.
The feedback interview is an open dialogue. The Person Profile represents the starting point for this dialogue. The interview gives you an opportunity to pose questions, comment on the Person Profile and express your opinion on any discrepancies between the Person Profile and your own evaluation.
The company has endorsed in writing that the certified user (see no. 7 below), besides complying with national legislation and guidelines on the use of occupational tests, will follow established practice to guarantee your rights when conducting this occupational test.
This means that the company and the certified user will guarantee that:
