We make predictive assessments accessible
Sift HR offers direct access to an assessment expert alongside software and support that scale with you.
Through our partnership with Wiley—the creators of PXT Select™, DiSC®, and The Five Behaviors of a Cohesive Team®—we bring proven, validated assessments to organizations of all sizes, from small businesses to the Fortune 500.
Our early research with HR leaders and hiring managers uncovered common barriers to effective assessment use: startup costs, legal concerns, and implementation challenges. We’ve built our approach to directly address and remove those roadblocks for you.

when you find fit
Everyone Wins
When you find fit, hiring decisions improve—and candidates find more fulfilling work. Everyone wins. PXT Select™ exists to make that happen.
The constructs measured by PXT Select™ are grounded in what research shows matters most. In a landmark meta-analysis, Frank Schmidt and John Hunter reviewed thousands of studies across industry, time, and place. Their analysis—spanning more than 500 diverse jobs—found that cognitive ability, a cornerstone of PXT Select™, predicts an average of 26% of the variation in employee performance across roles—significantly more than traditional, unstructured interviews deliver.
PXT Select™ adds several other key predictors by assessing personality, interests, and providing targeted interview questions—all designed to work together to help you find fit and hire better.
Help your candidates and your company succeed by using PXT Select™, backed by Sift HR’s expert support every step of the way.
