How It Works

A PXT™ assessment is needed for each candidate that you want to evaluate. Candidates are assessed on the following core skills:

For every candidate taking the assessment online, the employer will have access to 12 reports at no additional cost. In order to maximize the assessment’s precision with the fewest number of questions, the PXT Select™ assessment uses computerized adaptive testing (CAT) and results are available within a few hours of the candidate taking the test.

PXT Select™ is conveniently administered on the internet, so you can assess employees and job candidates anywhere there is internet access. Other administration options are available on request. Results are available immediately and can be shared with decision makers in any of your company’s offices, anywhere in the world.

The PXT Select™ Suite of Reports

PXT Select™ provides multiple reports available online providing a clear picture of a candidate’s thinking style, behaviors and interests.

Introduction to PAC (Partner Access Center)

The Profiles Assessment Center (PAC) is an interactive website which allows users to manage their Wiley products online. In the PAC, users schedule and manage assessments, create Performance Models, manage meter availability, and much more.

As a client of NexaLearning, our “Pilot 2 Select” Program includes access to all your assessments and reports from within PAC. The currency used in PAC is called a Meter. A Meter is consumed when a PXT Select™ assessment is scored. Clients may send assessment invitations to candidates, but Meters are only used when assessments are completed by candidates. In order to run the reports that include more than one person, a Meter is required for each individual in the report.

PXT Select Usage in Talent Management

PXT Select™ is an assessment based on over 20 years of research and can provide organizations with a fuller picture of candidates. It provides the hiring individual with the insight into a candidate’s cognitive abilities, behavioral traits and interests, including tips about the candidate’s potential job fit. Each position can be benchmarked to your specific requirement to help maximize a good job fit. PXT Select™ can also compare multiple candidates to one position or one candidate to multiple positions, again benchmarked to the specific position. The PXT Select™ enables the manager to properly identify training needs and offer suggestions for each individual, coach employees where needed, identify who is promotable, compare manager and their employees to ensure compatibility and increase performance, and much more!
