Finding the right talent for your team is one of the most critical challenges in today’s competitive job market. It’s not just about filling positions; it’s about finding the best fit—candidates whose skills, behaviors, and interests align with your company’s needs and culture. At Cura HR , we are authorized partners of the PXT Select assessment and utilize to take a data-driven approach to hiring, helping uncover the hidden potential of candidates and make more informed decisions.
PXT Select is a powerful tool that enhances the talent acquisition process by going beyond the obvious qualifications on a resume. It provides a deeper look into a candidate’s behavioral traits, cognitive abilities, and motivational interests—factors that are often overlooked in traditional hiring methods. According to the Mercer 2024 Global Talent Trends Report, employees who are well matched to their job roles are 2.5 times more productive. This underscores the importance of using tools like PXT Select to ensure the right fit.
PXT Select utilizes a performance model library that matches assessment results against the requirements of specific job roles.

Traditional hiring often relies on surface-level indicators like resumes and interviews. However, these methods can miss crucial aspects of a candidate's potential. According to a Harvard Business Review study, 65% of hiring managers rely more on instinct than data, which can lead to inconsistent and biased decisions. PXT Select addresses this by using objective data to uncover what’s below the surface—traits that a candidate might not even be aware of themselves.
The PXT Select assessment results are utilized as a component of the decision making process.
One of the insights we've gained from using PXT Select at Cura HR is the significant impact of creativity on success in consulting roles. Through our performance models, we identified creativity as a key driver for our consulting team. This discovery aligns with our approach to providing creative solutions, storytelling, and sharing data in engaging ways. By identifying this trait, we can ensure that new hires not only meet the technical requirements of the job but also bring the creative spark that drives our business forward.
Data-driven decision-making is at the core of the PXT Select assessment. Unlike traditional methods that rely heavily on intuition, PXT Select uses quantitative data to support hiring decisions. This approach helps reduce bias, improve consistency, and increase the likelihood of selecting candidates who will excel in their roles. By considering both the visible and hidden aspects of a candidate’s profile, organizations can make more informed, objective, and effective hiring choices.
Integrating PXT Select into the hiring process does more than just improve individual job fit—it enhances overall team performance. By aligning each team member’s strengths with their role requirements, companies can create a more cohesive and productive workforce. This alignment not only boosts efficiency but also contributes to a positive work environment where employees feel valued and engaged.
Building a diverse and inclusive workforce is more than a goal—it’s a necessity for business success. PXT Select supports this by providing a fair and unbiased evaluation of candidates, focusing on their potential rather than just their background. This aligns with our mission at Cura HR to promote inclusivity in the hiring process, ensuring that all candidates are given a fair opportunity to demonstrate their suitability for the role.
