Most people hire on competence alone, missing the most important aspect of hiring - the unsuitable job applicant gets the most practice and so may appear best. The Tilbury testing system helps to identify the winning traits of prospective employees. They can be evaluated rapidly and accurately, avoiding the costly exercise of employing competent but unsuitable staff.

The Tilbury Group views the right person in the following ways:

  • He/She has the skills, experience and track record to be able to do the job required
  • He/She has the Attitude and Desire to use those skills to help achieve the company's goals.
  • He/She will be Effective in a short space of time within the position.


The Tilbury system looks for reasons Not To Hire individuals. It identifies those personal limitations which can inhibit a person from utilising their knowledge, skill and experience effectively.

The unique profiling methods uncovers what is behind the applicant's resume. This allows us to determine whether the candidate actually does what s/he says s/he does. We also acknowledge the personal traits which match the culture of our client company.

The system is a measure of Attitude. It measures what they actually do in areas such as:

  • Communication
  • Team Work
  • Sales Ability
  • Ethics
  • Commitment
  • Results Drive
  • Flexibility


The uniqueness of the Tilbury system is borne from having observed and documented over a long period those actions that successful people continually do. The ability to provide a clear understanding of the skills required to do the job and a profile which demonstrates the right attitude, gives you a candidate that the Tilbury Group is prepared to guarantee for twelve months (conditions apply).
