Talent Methodology

Go Beyond the Resume

In the intelligence community, character matters. Do you value  applicants' ability to adapt, self-awareness and the exercise of sound judgment are valued above all. We train your hiring team to conduct situational interview techniques that engage applicants in role play scenarios by which to assess personal traits, not just their resume.

We engage your directors and teams to develop profiles of job roles and traits. In collaboration with your people, we design situational interviews for use in assessing your candidates for optimal performance. 

Iconic has developed a unique methodology, called the Structured Experience Assessment Model (SEAM), based on techniques utilized by intelligence community agencies to vet and assess candidates for staff employment. We test for interpersonal skills, critical thinking, empathy, and self-awareness of your prospective new hires.
