Introducing
Plum Role Model™

Reinvent how you define success. Instantly.

Role Model turns your plain-text job descriptions into science-backed blueprints for success in seconds. Because when you define the job right, hiring gets a whole lot better.

 

Every job deserves a Role Model.

Plum Role Model™ is the first automated job analysis built for the modern workforce. It decodes job descriptions into behavioral benchmarks, revealing the durable skills your roles actually require, like adaptability, communication, and execution.

What's broken?

When the role is poorly defined, even the best candidate can fail. Role Model fixes that by getting the job right first.

Subjective inputs

Role definitions often rely on feedback from SMEs, which can be incomplete or biased. Without standardized criteria, these inputs risk overlooking critical competencies or reinforcing existing biases in hiring.

Outdated process

Traditional job analysis takes over 140 hours per role, involving multiple internal reviews. It’s a slow, resource-heavy process that often can’t keep pace with today’s evolving business needs and hiring timelines.

Mismatch risk

Most hiring tools focus on evaluating people, not the role itself, creating serious blind spots. Without an objective understanding of what success looks like, organizations risk mismatching candidates to job expectations.

Role Model fixes the foundation

Proven & Accurate

Built by I/O psychologists and validated across roles and industries, Plum’s predictive models are grounded in science. They match expert-created benchmarks with over 90% accuracy, giving you trusted insights without the time or subjectivity of manual evaluations.
