Up to 10% of the UK working population has gone through a psychometric, test or assessment one of our consultants has designed. We have worked with many big companies all of over the world. Behavioural, cognitive and psychometric assessment has been at the centre of what we do for many years. This isn't going to change. In fact, in a world where data driven decisions are so important, having accurate, robust, valid and reliable data is even more vital. What has changed is the need for all of this data to feed in to one predictive model. You need to compare apples with apples so the correlations you find are meaningful and predictive.
We use a mix of cognitive, psychometric and behavioural data to make predictions about people at all levels of organisations from shop floor workers to graduates and apprentices to senior leaders and listed company executive and non-executive teams. The three-core metrics we use are:
· Behavioural – interviews, 360 feedback, assessment centre scores, engagement surveys and appraisals.
· Cognitive – situational judgement, numerical, verbal and abstract reasoning
· Psychometric – personality, values, attitudes and emotions
While we have our own tests and design bespoke psychometrics for clients, we are test agnostic, so can also use data from any valid and reliable measurements you want. We use this data to help your organisation form an objective and valid assessment of people against criteria we know predict performance. In short, we map any reputable supplier’s data to our model. This gives you the flexibility to use tests that are right for you. We present this data in a format that can be used in any recruitment, engagement or talent discussion. Most importantly however, this data is now kept for you to benchmark and refine your recruitment and development practices to maximise the chance of driving desired customer and business outcomes.
