HR Consulting

Specialized Packaging
"Specialized Packaging embraced the Drake P3 Profiling Tool approximately one year ago. Right from the outset, we found the staff knowledgeable and professional. They took the time to ensure that we fully understood not only the tool capabilities, but also the many ways we could benefit as an organization through utilization of the tool. The initial training was well organized and presented. And, the ongoing service we receive is timely and helpful. Recruitment and ongoing staff development are critical to the success of our business and we have come to appreciate this tool as a very important component of our H.R. Management System. I recommend the Drake P3 Profiling Tool as a tool that pays for itself with the accuracy of information it provides."
- Brenda Chapman, Director of Human Resources

OpenRoad Auto Group Ltd.
"Drake P3 behavioural based assessment system is helping us to recruit and retain top talent. We are very pleased with the tool and the level of support provided by Drake International during the implementation of the system."
- Sharon Rupal, Director, Human Resources

KONE Canada
"KONE Canada first began using Drake P3 in 2007 as a compliment to our existing recruitment tools. After initially using the P3 on a test basis we quickly realized its value in providing KONE with a balanced report that could shed light on our candidate's strengths and traits. The easy to read reports have become useful in quickly describing candidate's motivators/de-motivators, their communication styles as well as their leadership styles. KONE Canada has gone even further with the use of the Drake P3 by using it on a number of occasions with our high performing employees. In this matter, we were able to benchmark the high performers' results and compare them to any candidates that were applying for similar positions. We have even used the P3 to better understand the relationship and dynamics between a supervisor and their direct reports. In those cases we have asked that all parties take a P3 and then used the results to better improve their rapport by adjusting to their communication and thinking styles."
