In 2022, 30% of the UK workforce worked remotely at least once a week.
This practice is still growing, and has been accelerated further after the COVID-19 pandemic.
However, the effectiveness and satisfaction derived from remote work vary significantly among individuals. To thrive while working from home, employees require a unique combination of personal characteristics, traits, and motivations.
The Remote Score is a valuable tool that provides insights into an individual's suitability for remote work. It helps you optimize your recruitment strategy for remote positions, empower managers to guide their teams effectively, and enhance the remote experience for your employees.
Where can I find it?
You can find the Remote Score on all profiles, regardless of your subscription type or status. Look for a blue flag next to the A-Player flag in pink, in the top-left corner of the platform.
What information does the Remote Score provide?
Hover over the blue Remote Score icon and check the header for the recommended type of work situation that best suits the individual. There are five different levels:
- Completely office-based
- Office first
- Hybrid
- Remote first
- Fully remote
This recommendation is based on the results of three assessments: personality (SHAPE), motivations (DRIVE), and reasoning skills (BRAIN).
Clicking on the blue icon allows you to access more comprehensive information about the individual's potential for remote success. It focuses on two key indicators:
- Maintaining distant relationships: This indicator reveals their natural ability to thrive (or struggle) without physical proximity to colleagues.
- Showing self-discipline: This indicator assesses their capacity to perform effectively without the structured environment provided by an office setting.
Additionally, you'll receive three recommendations on how to enhance the remote experience for your candidate or employee.
