Now Available: The PXT Selectâ„¢
Having the right people in the right jobs can transform your business. How do you get a clear picture of a candidate's thinking style, behaviors, and interests to give you the meaningful edge to make the right hiring decision? Because the interview process only allows us to see about 20% of any candidate, it is hard to do. The PXT Select is a unique "job matching" assessment that enables you to evaluate a candidate based on the qualities required to successfully perform a specific job. PXT Select not only helps you find the right people, but also helps you shape the overall employee experience.
The PXT Select is available to RSPA Members at a discounted price. For more information about the PXT Select or how to begin using it in your organization, visit our Member Business Resources page. |

Security Tip
The vast majority of breaches in the last few years have begun with social engineering attacks against users.
