The Hilson Personnel Profile/Success Quotient (HPP/SQ®) is a quick, 20-minute assessment of the qualifications needed for long-term career success, e.g., emotional IQ, drive, work ethic, social skills and communication skills.

The HPP/SQ scales (which are also part of the Hilson Management Inventory) include:

  • Candor
  • Achievement History
  • Social Ability
  • “Winner’s” Image
  • Initiative
  • Success Quotient
  • Extroversion
  • Popularity/”Charisma”
  • Sensitivity
  • Competitive Spirit
  • Self-Worth
  • Family Achievement Expectations
  • Drive
  • Preparation Style
  • Goal Orientation
  • Anxiety about Organization

While the HPP/SQ is generally appropriate for use in the selection and placement of all levels of employment, within the Safety and Security sector, the HPP/SQ is best used in screening for management and executive level positions.

“We are now using the 16pf Career Development Report as a standard part of our executive coaching intake process. Our clients consistently find the report to be insightful and provocative. A discussion of the report invariably illuminates key areas of interest and concern and helps both client and coach focus and prioritize the coaching engagement. The Personal Career Effectiveness Considerations section of the report provides an ideal foundation for career planning discussions and developmental assignments.”
