"Allan Conway is one of Europe's foremost graphologists, the discipline that can assess character through analysis of handwriting. His services are called upon by some of the largest firms in great Britain in the area of recruitment, when hundreds of applications have to be screened to make a final selection of candidates for interview."

"He recalls a recent case when a large manufacturing company was deciding on two candidates for the position of Chief Executive Officer. Unable to differentiate between the two, the selection committee called him in to offer his expert opinion. He found one candidate's writing to reveal a disturbing level of inflexibility, and noted that this candidate would make a good commanding officer 'in the military but was unsuitable for this post'. Afterwards Allan was told that this candidate had in fact served nine and a half years in the army."
