Better HR Decisions

• Since hiring mistakes can be costly, it's important to make the correct decision from the beginning.

• Employers seeking the right candidate for the job increasingly have to dig a little deeper to separate the true talent from the pretenders.

• It seems business training and various employment services have taught aspiring candidates the best methods of resume writing and the right answers to every interview question.

• The last method left to distinguish between nearly identical job seekers in order to make more informed hiring decisions is testing.

Pre-Employment Assessment

• Employment agencies and human resources departments may create a test using a collection of personality, career, IQ, attitude and aptitude assessments to evaluate a candidate's capabilities and ensure they are a good fit for a certain position. – Employees whose values and aptitudes match the company will enjoy their work,

be more proactive, engaged and loyal, and will deliver a level of commitment that only true job satisfaction can provide.

– Companies can use these tests to screen for the right candidates before the interview process begins, to filter out those who are a poor fit for the organization, therefore spending management time more efficiently.

– A combination of objective data points and custom questions related to specific requirements can further narrow down the field.

Finding Management

• Psychometric testing can provide valuable information about personality traits for potential managers, including numerical, verbal and abstract reasoning. – Logic tests can determine abstract or lateral thinking skills that show how quickly

new skills are learned and problems outside a candidate's knowledge are solved.

– There are not necessarily wrong answers to personality questions but they can provide clues as to where candidates might fit best within an organization.

• By using an exam generator, a candidate's profile can be compared to top performers and certain issues that may need to be developed on-the-job can be identified. – Insights from these tests will enable managers to tailor their management style

to various personality types, facilitate integration into existing teams, adapt job functions accordingly and address potential problems before they begin.

Finding Management

• There is a science to forecasting optimal performance and using an online exam software can help.

• Through a series of online tests developed from job-related questions, numerous candidates can be evaluated quickly and effectively, and compared to other potential employees and existing star performers in a central database.

• Identifying employees ready to move up or across in an organization will make business run smoother and take some of the guess-work out of H/R decisions.
