PXT Select is a candidate assessment tool that helps select the right people for the job so organisations and people thrive. We use PXT Select to help align people to roles based on the traits most important to be successful, so you can hire smarter, and retain longer. With PXT Select, hire the right people to build a better future.

What Is PXT Select?

PXT Select is a hiring assessment that helps you evaluate Job Fit, which is how well a candidate’s natural characteristics align with the demands of a role. The assessment provides actionable insights into how candidates think and work. From cognitive ability to behavioural traits and interests, it offers a complete picture of candidate potential, giving hiring managers the clarity and confidence to make the right call.

Cognitive Ability

Cognitive Ability

Can they do the job?

Behavioral Traits

Behavioral Traits

How will they do the job?

Interests

Interests

Will they enjoy the job?

 

Paired with its job-matching feature, the PXT Select assessment enables organisations to evaluate an individual relative to the qualities required to perform a job successfully.

Why Does Smarter Hiring Matter?

Hiring the wrong person is expensive. Poor job fit can lead to disengagement, conflict, and costly turnover. PXT Select helps you match people to roles based on more than just gut instinct, it’s a research-backed approach to predicting job success through fit, not just skill.

When a candidate’s cognitive abilities, behavioural traits and interests align with the role, they’re more likely to thrive, and so is your team.
Discover how PXT Select can support you to:

  • Match candidates to roles more accurately
  • Improve team fit and retention
  • Empower hiring managers with meaningful, easy-to-use data

Sample interview questions

PXT Select is the only candidate selection tool you’ll need. PXT’s Selection Report provides a range of sample questions with points to look out for depending on how the candidate answered, as you can find in the sample report above.

PXT Select Sample Questions
When working with a team, how do you get buy-in from your colleagues if you think you have a good idea?
Describe a recent situation where you felt it was best to defer to others or not take action. What was the result?
Describe a time when you waited too long to make a decision. What were the consequences? What would you do differently?
Would you describe your decision-making style as bold or cautious? Give an example of when it would have been better to take the opposite approach.
Describe a situation where you had to explain a technical or complex subject to others. What steps did you take to ensure you adequately explained the key points?
If you analyse numerical data and find that it calls for a change—such as reallocating resources or adjusting a process—how would you convince others that the change is needed?
Tell me about a time when your supervisor made a decision and you disagreed with it. How would colleagues describe your reaction to the situation?

CheckPoint 360°: clear, practical leadership feedback

Turn everyday feedback into focused development.
CheckPoint 360° gathers perspectives from direct reports, peers and managers to show how a leader is performing against eight universal management competencies and 18 skill areas. The output is clear, practical and easy to act on.

What leaders gain

  • A balanced view of observable behaviours – not opinions or guesswork
  • Strengths and gaps across core areas like communication, adaptability, task management, relationships and developing others
  • Where leadership habits align (or clash) with team and organisational goals
  • Targeted actions that feed straight into a personal development plan

Why pair it with PXT Select

Use PXT Select to hire for job fit and CheckPoint 360° to grow leaders once they’re in role. Together they reduce ramp-up time, support internal mobility and give managers data they can actually use.

How it works

  1. Invite raters (manager, peers, direct reports — optionally others who work closely with the leader)
  2. Complete the online survey in minutes
  3. Review an at-a-glance report with strengths, gaps and development priorities
  4. Convert insight into a simple action plan with our coaching support

Who it’s for

  • New and emerging managers who need focused direction
  • Experienced leaders seeking a refresh on what’s working (and what’s not)
  • Teams undergoing change who want better alignment and accountability
