In this segment, the speakers discuss a comprehensive hiring strategy for painting business owners, especially for production management and sales positions. They explain that while DiSC is a key component for measuring a candidate’s behavioral style, it is combined with three additional assessments to form a larger, multi-faceted evaluation tool. This composite assessment captures personality, values, and overall fit for the specific job description. The speakers also highlight the creation of industry-specific benchmarks, drawing on extensive data from the painting sector to define the typical profile of a successful salesperson. By aligning assessment results with these benchmarks, hiring managers can more accurately identify candidates who match the desired personality type, values, and role requirements.

Chapters

you had many different tools. One of them was DiSC, but there was more to it. Did you determine what type of personality they have? Does that fit the personality we're looking for? And then what their values are, does that fit in with what we need for the job description? For painting business owners, for those production management and sales roles, is there a typical type of person that you're helping them trying to find? Do all the assessments.
DiSC is a chunk of it. We like DiSC. There's lots of different assessments out there and we smash a couple together in our one larger assessment. So it's 4 different assessments I usually am measuring so I can catch people from different lenses. DiSC measures our behavioral style, and that's super critical and it's foundational, but it doesn't measure everything about you or me. In many areas, we create benchmarks. I've done this so many times in the painting industry. I have enough data to see that here's what a typical salesperson in a painting company looks like.
