4 How It Was Developed Exemplar Global partnered with personality test experts Talent Click to build the Work Style Assessment for Auditors. We began by creating a job analysis for each auditor role. This allowed us to create a job profile for auditors and lead auditors. Job profiling enables employers to develop a profile and description of the ideal candidate s characteristics and work style for a specific position. To develop this unique profile, we collected data from industry experts in an online questionnaire. The unique perspective and expert knowledge of each industry expert was incorporated into the profile. The result of this process is a clear description of the traits and work style that will make a difference on the job and a set criteria for assessing candidates for fit.
