We are proud of our staff, our teamwork, and our strategic partnerships. Our full-time staff includes industrial psychologists and administrative support personnel. The current team has been in place since PBS was founded, working together and supporting each other for over 12 years. In addition, we have long-term strategic partnerships and alliances with adjunct staff, and employ part-time interns who are working on advanced degrees. For example, we have IT professionals who work in partnership with us to deliver automated tests and surveys via the PBS proprietary platform. We also have long-standing alliances with other industrial psychologists who can supplement our expertise and availability when needed. All of our staff including the adjunct members have years of experience in their respective fields and in working with each other.
