Assessment Centres
An organisation's competitive advantage is dependent on the quality of its employees. Anyone involved in selecting staff needs to have an overall picture of applicants, how they work in practice, how they relate to others and their motivation. We believe that the competence of an individual for any particular role
is determined by their knowledge, skills and preferred behaviours.
Assessment Centres provide a broader behaviourally based assessment
using a number of carefully designed exercises. Assessors use objective
measures to assess candidates' performance in exercises that are
specifically designed to critically examine the criteria for selection.
A well designed and managed Assessment Centre will ensure that you pick the best quality recruits who have the potential to drive your company forward. Staff turnover will be reduced and productivity increased by selecting the right people for the job. The costs of recruiting the wrong people are much greater than the cost of an Assessment Centre.
Managers can suffer from mild forms of personality or neurotic disorders. Although the symptoms are mild they can have a disproportionate effect on the person's performance. These individual's may hide these during a traditional interview but our psychologists can assess participant's mental health during Assessment Centre exercises.
Identifying
Competencies
We can help you
identify the competencies required for excellent
performance in your organisation. These can then be used as basic criteria for the objective assessment of candidates.
Design Assessment
Centres
Our psychologists have many years' experience in the design of
Assessment Centres. We can help you to design an Assessment Centre that is efficient and provides a sound basis for identifying candidates' abilities.
Design Exercises
Candidates may be familiar with 'off
the shelf' exercises, we design
exercises that are unique to your company, increasing their face validity and job relatedness. These provide realistic situations to challenge candidates and provide the basis for assessors' observations.
Training
We will train your managers in the objective assessment of
people, using interviews and Assessment Centre exercises.
Facilitating the Centre
Our psychologists can facilitate the centre providing assistance and
advice to your own assessors. If your own managers are too busy we can also provide fully trained and experienced assessors.
