The Social People Index

The Social People Index

The SP Index is a comprehensive database comprising 7 key indicators of online behaviour. It serves as the backbone for the DECORUM software, facilitating the evaluation of candidates’ online presence while safeguarding their privacy.

Developed over an 18-month research and development phase by Social Media Consulting, the 7 key measures were crafted to launch the SP Index brand in 2012. Subsequently, ongoing efforts have been made to keep both the data and software up-to-date, reflecting current online trends and behaviours.

Employers can leverage the SP Index database to objectively assess candidates’ online profiles against industry standards, aiding in informed hiring decisions while maintaining fairness and confidentiality.
