Talent Plus Online Assessment Information & Alternative Selection Process Request

As part of its interview process, Pendry Manhattan West uses Talent Online Assessments, a hiring tool administered by Talent Plus, a third-party management consultant company. These Assessments consist of a series of questions related to your talents and abilities which are then analyzed by human resource professionals in conjunction with the other aspects of Pendry Manhattan West’s application and interview process. This information is one of several factors used by Pendry Manhattan West to determine an applicant’s strengths and ultimately their compatibility with a position at the Hotel. The results of Talent Online Assessments are by no means the sole or dispositive factor considered by Pendry Manhattan West when making employment decisions. Rather, Talent Online Assessments are one aspect of the larger application process. New York City Resident applicants who do not wish to participate in a Talent Online Assessment may request an alternative selection process by emailing PMW.Humanresources@pendry.com.

 Applicants requesting an alternative selection process should indicate the reasons for their request, and whether such request is made as an accommodation for a disability that prevents the applicant from taking a Talent Online Assessment. The data collected by Talent Online Assessments consist only of an applicant’s name and responses, and Pendry Manhattan West maintains Talent Online Assessment results under strict confidentiality.

We are deeply committed to a fair and equitable hiring process. To ensure a fair and equitable process, Pendry Manhattan West has completed a bias audit of the Talent Online Assessment tools. Results can be requested by contacting PMW.Humanresources@pendry.com.

Data entered into Talent Online Assessments is stored in Talent Bank. This information can be accessed by emailing a request to PMW.Humanresources@pendry.com, and will be provided within 30 days of the request. Data shall not be disclosed where such disclosure would violate local, state, or federal law, or interfere with a law enforcement investigation.
