David Bernard

CEO and Co-founder of AssessFirst

David Bernard predicts human behaviour. In 2002 David co-founded AssessFirst, only 30 days after obtaining his Master’s Diploma in Quantitative Psychology. He subsequently developed an innovative tool for assessing potential and behaviours in the workplace. In 2008 he fine-tuned the Meetic algorithm (match.com group) to match couples based on psychological and behavioural affinity. A year later, he created an online career counselling service that over 2,000,000 students have used. In 2012, he created the predictive algorithm that now enables AssessFirst to predict people’s ability to succeed and thrive in specific roles with 85% accuracy. To date, almost 15 million people in over 40 countries have benefited from the predictions and systems he has developed.
