The First Step of a Successful Hiring is to build
a hiring benchmark for a specific position. There
are three primary sources of data that can be
used
3

• Library Performance Models
• Job Description Surveys (Job Analysis)
• Concurrent Study of Your High Performers

4
Some of the above methods can be used alone,
while others are only supporting methods. The
goal is to use the best information you have
available to create the best model for job fit.
5
Library Performance Models (Can be used alone or
with other methods)
Library performance models can be used alone or
as a basis for developing a customized job fit
model. The Performance Model Library was
developed in two different ways
6
1. Examining data sets of tens of thousands of
top and bottom performers to understand what
traits are common to people who are successful in
different positions. 2. Examining data about job
requirements and successful performance from the
U.S. Department of Labors ONet database.
7
These are general occupational benchmarks and may
not reflect the unique corporate culture of your
organization. If you decide to use a Library
Performance Model it is recommended that you
verify the benchmark by conducting a Job
Description Survey or Concurrent Study on the
target position as soon as possible.
8
The Library Performance Models include a
description, which you can use to compare against
the target positions job description before
selecting the model. The Library Performance
Model descriptions are generally aligned with
those found in the U.S. governments online
occupational directory.

Job Description Survey (Can only be used to
support other methods)
The Job Description Survey (JDS) allows you to
tailor a Library Performance Model to fit an
organizations unique requirements for a specific
job. It includes questions about different
job-related activities.
10
The JDS is completed by one or more individuals
who supervise the position and who are very
familiar with what is required to perform
successfully in that position. Once the surveys
are completed, the data from the JDS is combined
with input from other sources, like a Library
Performance Model or top-performer data, to build
the Performance Model.
11
Concurrent Study (Can be used alone or with other
methods)
The Concurrent Study approach allows you to use
assessment results from your organizations top
performers in the position to build a Performance
Model.
12
A concurrent study becomes more reliable the more
employees you can involve in the study. Once the
participants in your study have completed the
assessment, you identify which of the individuals
are the top performers. The system will then use
this data to build a Performance Model.

Next Steps
Completing a Job Description Survey for your open
position will create a customized Hiring
Benchmark Report. This report offers a detailed
profile of the work-related abilities, interests,
motivations and personality traits of top
performers in the position.
14
The Hiring Benchmark Report provides data about
the requirements of the job and it can also be
used to supplement, organize and analyze the
information provided in résumés, background
checks and the interview. You will receive your
Hiring Benchmark Report via email. Complete the
