Job Evaluation Tool

The Job Evaluation Tool (JET) assesses characteristics of jobs and organizations that are important for effective performance and career fit in today’s job market.  The JET is comprised of four sections.

The first section is the Performance Improvement Characteristics; (PIC) job analysis.  The PIC is a 48-item questionnaire that has SMEs specifically define those personality characteristics that will facilitate incumbent job performance.  The items are directly related to the Hogan Personality Inventory and provide the opportunity to compare the similarity of jobs (in terms of the HPI scales) based on these profiles. 

The second section assesses Performance Barriers. It includes 22 items and examines behavioral characteristics that would impede or degrade performance.  

The third section is the Motivational Improvement Characteristics (MIC) job analysis.  The MIC is a 40-item questionnaire that assesses the environment in which an employee works.  Several items are directly related to each scale on the Motives, Values, Preferences Inventory (MVPI: Hogan & Hogan, 1996) and items are summed and averaged across raters and converted to percentiles, resulting in a profile of the values that help define workgroup climate. 

Lastly, the forth section is the Competency Environment Tool (CET).  The CET is composed of a list of common competencies found on jobs and asks the SME to evaluate the extent to which each competency facilitates job performance in the identified job.  Once a list of the most important competencies is identified, the relationship between these competencies and the Hogan database can be determined.
