Assessments
Our assessments are meticulously crafted to be brief yet highly valid, ensuring a rapid and effective differentiation of candidates. By leveraging a curated blend of the most valid assessments available and our own proprietary tests, we ensure a swift and effective ranking of candidates. Our assessments are brief yet powerful, providing clear insights with minimal time investment. Trust in our expertise to identify top talent and elevate your recruitment strategy.
Our assessments also employ a sophisticated weighting system to tailor the evaluation process to the specific demands of each job role. By adjusting the significance of each assessment component, we ensure a precise match to the role’s requirements. Utilizing our platform is akin to receiving expert consultation from our resident organizational psychologist, but in a much simpler and more accessible format.
Our Approach
We’ve reviewed thousands of scientific papers to identify which types of psychometric tests are most predictive of on-the-job performance. We only use the most predictive tests. Our focus is on quality, not quantity. Our tests are designed to be administered early in the hiring process so you can have a highly predictive screen of all qualified candidates before you start interviewing.
Here’s a list of all our assessments. All assessments are designed and validated by our team of industrial-organizational psychologists to the highest standards.
| Big 5 Personality | General Mental Ability |
| Emotional Intelligence | Verbal / Reading Ability |
| Leadership Style | Numerical / Math Ability |
| Conscientiousness | Problem Solving Ability |
| Culture Fit | Attention to Detail |
| 16PF Personality | Logic & Reasoning |
| Personal Strengths | Attention to Detail |
Not all tests are suitable for all vacancies. We’ll give you bespoke advice on which tests to use for each vacancy, as well as what weighting to give to each assessment in order to maximize the predictive validity of the test battery.
