Frequently Asked Questions

What are executive assessments?

Executive assessments are structured, objective evaluations of a leader's capabilities, style, and fit, used to inform hiring, promotion, succession, and development decisions. They replace gut feel with validated data on how well a person will perform in a specific role, team, and culture.

What assessment tools does TRANSEARCH use?

TRANSEARCH uses the proprietary Orxestra® Method to evaluate fit across performance, leadership, culture, and team, and offers Hogan Assessments, a personality-science tool backed by more than 30 years of validated research that predicts leadership performance and potential derailers.

What is the Hogan Assessment, and what does it measure?

Hogan is a personality assessment that predicts workplace performance across three areas: how a person shows up at their best (day-to-day reputation), how they behave under stress or pressure (potential derailers), and the core values and motivators that drive them and signal culture fit.

When should you use an assessment in the hiring process?

Assessments are most valuable before a final hiring or promotion decision, to confirm fit, surface risks, and compare finalists objectively. They are valuable again afterward, to onboard and develop the leader against a clear picture of their strengths and blind spots.
