  • Align with Role Requirements: Use the DISC profile to evaluate how well a candidate's behavioral tendencies align with the specific requirements and culture of the role and organization.
  • Facilitate Discussion: Use DISC profiles to guide conversations during interviews, focusing on how the candidate’s natural strengths can be leveraged in the role.
