The Challenge of Staying Objective

One of the keys to making a good hire is paying attention to the red flags that pop up during the interview process.   If you genuinely like a candidate, it's easy to ignore signs the person may be a less than ideal match.  Or, if you're working with time constraints and trying to move forward as quickly as possible, it can be easy to justify potential mismatches as things you can "worry about later."

Berke Keeps You Focused

One of the most important things a Berke Profile offers is an unbiased perspective.  We give you facts and data, so you don’t get distracted by whether you like or dislike your candidate.  We tell you whether the individual’s key traits are a match or a mismatch with your position.  We point  out strengths and challenges, things you need to consider if you decide to hire this person.  Getting this kind of objective, third party input can be invaluable.  And it can help you make a much better hiring decision.

Hit Or Miss?

You’ll see at a glance where your candidate hits or misses your targets.   If there's a mismatch, you'll easily identify whether it's off by a little or a lot.   We'll also explain how any mismatches will impact job performance and productivity.  Berke weighs in on which ones might not be all that important and which ones could be a deal breaker.

In Plain English

Hate those candidate profiles that are full of jargon and technical terms you don’t understand?  Frustrated by lengthy reports that  leave you more confused than clear?  Us, too.  That’s why our assessments use straight-forward language. We explain what we mean and why we think it’s important. 

A Long-Term Management Tool

Once you've made a hiring decision, Berke can help you understand how to get the best possible performance from your new team member.  Our profiles point out strategies for most effectively communicating with and managing new hires.  We'll help you get the best possible results out of each person who joins your team. 

Drive a Killer Interview

We designed the Berke Profile to help you conduct great behavior-based interviews.  We start by clearly pinpointing your candidate's key strengths and challenges.  Then we provide you with probing questions that generate insightful, revealing answers.  You'll gain a deeper understanding not only of what your candidate can do but how he or she does it.

Compare Candidates

Are you considering two or more people for an open position?  Our profile offers a great tool for side-by-side comparisons of candidates.   It helps you clearly see hits and misses so you can more easily decide which individual is the better fit.
