Illustrations would be good.

As an enhancement to the method, moving the 'center point' toward the aspect(s) that are not as important would further accentuate which candidate fits the given spot.

Say you are filling a programming position on a limited budget. You feel the skills and cost are the more important than personality for this position. Move the 'center point' closer to the personality point. This de-emphasizes that aspect. Someone who is cheap and skilled will score close to the center point along those lines and since the personality line is now shorter, having a bad score here will not increase his triangle's area that much.
