PACES presents a series of interview-like tasks to the user in a sequence that lasts about 10-12 minutes. Completion of any one task may take 20 to 90 seconds. Most tasks require that the user speak in response to a question or touch the screen to indicate a choice or react to a display. Spoken and touch responses are uploaded to an AMI server where they are evaluated by human raters and/or by pattern recognition modules to estimate work-related characteristics of the user, including energy level, positive attitude, and communication skill as evident in the responses. These estimate may be used as part of a process to measure the suitability or engagement of employees.
