FAQ

Where can I find “X” person’s Behavioral Assessment results once inputted?
Upon submitting an employee’s paper assessment, you will see their results in your employee directory.

You will also see this person’s behavioral results when using specific PI products:

– Hire: Add them as a job candidate and assess them based on the behavioral needs of the role.

– Inspire: Read their Behavioral Report and access various relationship and development tools.

I’m trying to enter an employee’s address but cannot. Why?
The answer depends on the type of email address you’re trying to enter:

– If you’re trying to add a business email, make sure the email domain is on your “allowed list” of organization domains.

– If you’re trying to add a freemail address (e.g., Gmail), make sure you’ve enabled the ability to override email domains.
