Set a Behavioral Target for a role but not quite satisfied with the results? Use the "Manually Override" feature to modify the existing target to your liking.
How to manually override an existing Behavioral Target
Log in to the PI software.
Select Hire from the top navigation bar.
You will land on the Hiring Center.
Select the job whose target you'd like to modify.
Select "Custom Target" on the left-hand side.
In the Job Target field, select Manually Override.
Use your cursor to “grab” and adjust the target as desired.
As you drag the cursor, the descriptions will change based on the adjustments to the target.
When you drop the target, enable the Save Changes button in the bottom-right corner of the screen. Click Save Changes to confirm the new Job Target.
Back in the Job Target field, you will see a note with an asterisk confirming the change you have made (e.g., *This factor has been modified).
An asterisk will also appear next to the corresponding row for the adjusted factor.
FAQs
Can I see how many times a Behavioral Target has been manually adjusted?
Can I see how many times a Behavioral Target has been manually adjusted?
No. The system does not track the number of times a Behavioral Target has been adjusted, nor does it track the specific override adjustments.
That said, if a Behavioral Target has been modified, the system will always visually denote which behavioral factor(s) has been modified.
Is it possible to widen the target ranges associated with the Behavioral Target?
Is it possible to widen the target ranges associated with the Behavioral Target?
No. By default, every Behavioral Target will display a 1-sigma-wide target range for each behavioral "factor."
These ranges cannot be customized. This is an intentional design choice to encourage more precise Behavioral Targets and ensure more relevant candidates to pick from.
I don't see "Custom Target." What now?
I don't see "Custom Target." What now?
If you don't see "Custom Target" on the left-hand side, it likely means you haven't created your custom target (and thus have nothing to override).
To create your custom target:
Click into the job whose target you'd like to modify.
Select "Create your own" where it says "Create new" on the left-hand side.
Select between 6 and 14 characteristics you feel are most critical to success in the role. (This is also known as the Job Assessment.)
Hit "Save and Continue."
You will land on your custom target.
Scroll down until you see the "Manually Override" button.
Click "Manually Override."
You will now have an opportunity to modify the Behavioral Target.
Click "Save Changes" once satisfied.
