Thomas International, the leading provider of psychometric assessments, has announced a new partnership with UK-based career advisory firm Blowleaf Total Career Solutions. Using Thomas assessments, Blowleaf’s clients are better able to understand where their vocation lies.
Blowleaf has adopted Thomas’ Personality, Behaviour and Aptitude assessments ahead of the launch of its new online membership platform this December. The career advisory is now able to anchor recommendations in behavioural science, validating life-changing career decisions.
Crucial to Blowleaf’s decision to adopt Thomas assessments was the accuracy and rigour of the Thomas solutions. Validated by the British Psychological Society and authored by world-leading occupational psychologists, Thomas assessments and reports are precisely tailored to the individual.
Cofounder and Managing Partner Daine Ferguson says: “I did a test myself a number of years ago, and it was unnaturally accurate. My wife agreed with every word of the report. Thomas was also highly recommended by one of our clients, Rolex, the watch company. They told me that all the reports for their people in Switzerland and the UK had been spot on, and that the assessments had been powerful recruitment tools as well.”
Ferguson continues, “Having worked in one profession for about 25 years, one of our clients made a significant career change. The Thomas International profile helped to reinforce the recommendation that we made, and within about six months his new business has gone from strength to strength. He is incredibly happy with his new vocation. In no small way that is down to Thomas International.”
As the race for talent intensifies, the capability to quickly and accurately predict performance puts Blowleaf ahead. Offering an objective basis for career advice that focuses on transferable skills, the adoption of Thomas psychometric assessments has helped to futureproof Blowleaf’s service.
Ferguson concludes: “The questionnaire we use assesses personality, behavioural and aptitude, with a report that you don’t need to hire a certified coach to be able to translate. It is incredibly accurate, assessing individuals in three different ways, really easy to administer, just above and beyond competitors in the market. The way you can access everything online is superb, and it works for us. Thomas gives us an additional level of professionalism and a really strong string to our bow.”
