Chart Guide - Trait Fit Profile

Throughout the platform under the majority of charts there is an ? icon, this launches pop-out Chart Guides. 

The below shows what an "Explain this Chart to me" guide looks like for the Trait Fit Profile Chart under:

Work Styles>Versus Role

NOTE: On screen you Hover-Over the chart for Fit Thresholds

This chart shows the candidate's Trait Fit scores and the Fit Status thresholds for each trait. The Fit Status thresholds are determined based on the importance of the trait to the role with the most important Traits having higher thresholds. The 3 possible Trait Fit statuses are as follows:

• Explore further: Candidates with a trait fit score of Explore Further do not meet the expected level of this trait for the role. It is important to remember that the level of a trait that a candidate has is not good or bad, as there is no 'right' level of any particular trait. It only serves to indicate that where a candidate has less of a trait than is expected for the role, they may need to develop mechanisms and/or strategies to compensate when performing the role. These should be explored further with the candidate to understand both their approach to such challenges and identify the levels of support that they may need.
• Good fit: The candidate is within a reasonable range of the expected level for the trait for the role. It appears that they would be a good fit for meeting the demands of the role in this area, but there may be certain elements that should be explored further with the candidate to ensure a well-rounded match.
• Great fit: The candidate easily exceeds the expected level of this trait for the role. Any misalignment with the demands of the role is minor and would not have undue influence on their ability to meet the demands of the role.

Example

  Questions this chart answers

1. What is the level of fit for each trait for the candidate?
2. What are the desired levels of fit required for each trait to determine the fit status for the trait?

How to interpret this chart

• The candidate's trait fit score is shown in the chart along with the trait status thresholds, shown as vertical lines across the bar in the chart. The line on the left shows the threshold between Explore Further and Good Fit statuses, and the line on the right shows the threshold between Good Fit and Great Fit statues. 
• You can see how close the candidate's score is to the thresholds for the other statuses, which gives an indication of the confidence you can have in their status.
