Frequently Asked Questions

Who gets to see my data?

The information you provide to us will be shared with others only with your express consent. At no point will your identifiable Candidate Profile be revealed to any third party without you agreeing to reveal it. Nor will your personal contact information or other identifiable information be given to or sold to third parties. For further specifics and explanation of how we use non-personally identified data in our internal research and analyses, see our Privacy Policy.

How do you make the job-person matches?

We use proprietary algorithms to match the Candidate Profile and the Job Profile so that we can generate a shortlist of qualified, well-matched candidates. The algorithms are derived from decades of research into the best predictors of performance in each job. That is, we use knowledge of the factors that drive performance in real jobs and align these with the same factors in evidence in each Candidate Profile. When the alignment is strongest, there is a match of relevant factors, a job-person match.

All candidates are ranked for all jobs. Candidates whose characteristics match the strongest with the predictors of performance in the job are eligible to be placed on the shortlist for that job – with their permission.

Where do you get the jobs?

We work directly with employing organizations to create valid Job Profiles. Our corporate clients are organizations that understand the value of science-based assessments of jobs and people. We do not scrape jobs off job boards or work with recruitment agencies; we need more relevant, performance-predicting information about each job than we could get from such sources.

How long will it take me to get a job?

There is no way to say with certainty. Your Candidate Profile will be matched with every Job Profile we have at Matchpoint Careers, now and into the future. If you are a strong match with one of the jobs profiled, you will be notified immediately. However, it may take some time before a match is found, depending on many things including the number and types of jobs we have profiled, the jobs being sought in the labor market, the currency and relevance of your particular talents and traits, and so on. If you do not hear from us, please use our career advisory services or contact us for insights into how your Profile is lining up with jobs on offer.

Can I get a job anywhere in the world?

At the moment, during the Beta phase, Matchpoint Careers matches people and jobs for US-based jobs only. We expect to expand to other countries in due course. If you are interested in finding a job outside the US, or filling a job based outside the US, please register with us and so indicate. We will be in contact.

Will my Profile “categorize” me too narrowly?

Matchpoint Careers doesn’t categorize or classify candidates. We do the opposite, overcoming the tendency of employers to pigeon-hole people according to academic accomplishment, or work background, or résumé emphasis on skill and experience only, or some other arbitrary basis for classification. Instead, Matchpoint Careers reveals a much richer picture of you, with more relevant and applicable characteristics of you than are available at present. Today excellent candidates are missing jobs and careers they could have had because they are getting screened out based on irrelevant factors. At Matchpoint Careers we think differently. We open possibilities, not close them.

Will I be matched only with jobs in my past and/or current field of activity?

No. Among the core principles of Matchpoint Careers is that your future performance – and your satisfaction and rewards in your career – are much more dependent on your competencies and aptitudes, interests and motivation than on your past activities or knowledge. Scientific research confirms this.

How long will you keep my Candidate Profile details?

We will keep your Candidate Profile for three years, at the end of which we will contact you to ask if you want to update your records. You may contact us at any time to request removal of your Candidate Profile from our database, by calling or emailing us at: .
