Neuroscience Breakthrough Brings Exciting New Prospects For Corporate Recruitment with PRISM Brain Mapping Software


(Cision Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) An incredible breakthrough in the world of neuroscience could herald a brave new dawn in recruitment, as one pioneering company offers up in -depth brain mapping services to help make those difficult employment decisions a breeze.



PRISM Behaviour Mapping reports (http://neuro -performance.co.uk/behaviour_mapping) are based upon the very latest findings in neuroscience, and can aid suitability assessments in the world of recruitment, where bosses will now be able to analyse behavioural preferences directly related to work performance to evaluate whether they’ve found the perfect candidate for any role. Recruitment agencies will also be able to offer the service to their clients as a fantastic way to narrow down the options and ensure that all candidates are of the highest calibre.

It’s estimated that decisions based on recruitment interviews are accurate only 14% of the time, and traditional hiring practices are only 10% predictive of a future employee’s job performance. The need for an in-depth tool that can predict behaviour patterns and map potential in employees has become apparent, especially in a corporate world with higher stakes than ever before.


The PRISM (http://neuro-performance.co.uk/) software will be able to analyse everything from emotional intelligence to suitability for in -house roles that are specific to every workplace – meaning that recruiters will be able to find their perfect job candidate more efficiently than ever before. Indeed, when eligibility and suitability of the candidate are both assessed using this type of resource, success rates in hiring the right employee have been shown to increase as high as 93%.

Geoff Greenwood, of GBTD, says, “This highly specific instrument helps enhance the recruitment process and elevate it to levels we’ve never seen before, taking advantage of some of the most up-to-date neuroscience discoveries to provide users with a series of ‘maps’ which are representations of how their brain prefers to work – these ‘maps’ can be used by employers to gauge suitability for a whole myriad of roles, as well as factors like leadership potential and emotional intelligence.” Neuroscience has shown us that people tend to be most motivated and successful when they use and are rewarded for using their own natural, preferred behaviour. This highlights the importance of matching people with the right jobs - doing those things they enjoy and do best. In simple terms, the better the fit between the person and the job, the better their performance levels are likely to be.

PRISM’s reports show not only people’s natural or instinctive behaviour preference, but also the way they modify or adapt their preferences to respond to the demands of specific situations in their work. This insight also helps them to understand more about their true potential, as well as what may be hindering them from achieving even higher performance. Employers can gauge the potential in candidates before they take them on, and they are given the keys to unlock the hidden potential in their new recruits from day one. Recruitment agencies can offer a premium service to their clients, guaranteeing at least a shortlist of candidates that are perfect for the position.

The world of recruitment is set to be spun on its head with the introduction of these brain-mapping techniques which help companies cherry-pick their dream job candidates.
