Managerial, Professional, and Technical Questionnaire (MPTQ) is an assessment developed by Procter & Gamble for its Global Employee Selection System. Taking less than 20 minutes to complete, the MPTQ is suitable for use in selecting a wide range of managerial, professional, and technical positions in the United States and Canada. Rigorously validated against the on-the-job performance of current employees, this biodata assessment utilizes a job applicant's biographical data to predict job performance and identify individuals with the potential for high-level achievement.

What the MPTQ Measures

The MPTQ reports on the three following dimensions:

	Leadership and Drive for Results Index targets the success attributes of leadership, initiative, problem solving, and communication. It is based upon data obtained from over 1000 U.S. and Canadian managers and professionals in criterion-related validation studies.
	Innovation Index targets three attributes (motivation, curiosity, and persistence) that have been demonstrated to predict technical innovation. This scale is based upon a criterion-related validation study comprised of 600 research and development scientists in the United States, many of whom have had careers distinguished by their producing major scientific and technical breakthroughs.
	Thinking, Analysis, and Solutions Index provides an indication of how well an individual would score on a general mental ability test and is based upon the ability of biodata items to predict performance on a problem solving test that has been found to be a strong predictor of actual job performance in many criterion-related validation studies. This index is normed upon individuals who attended U.S. colleges and universities and is only reported for these individuals.
