OUR ASSESSMENT PORTFOLIO

MEASURE READINESS, FIT, POTENTIAL

We use SHL's talent acquisition framework to help organizations realize their priorities when considering talent, and to simplify the hiring process. The framework is built from three pillars -  potential, readiness, and fit. Regardless of the position, we have the solution to help you confidently select candidates with the perfect balance of these three pillars.

READINESS

Readiness refers to a candidate's capabilities relative to a specific job role from day one, including the hard and soft skills, as well as the knowledge required to be immediately successful in meeting the job's needs. This is especially important for roles where immediate success is critical. When prioritizing readiness, the focus is on understanding time-to-productivity right now.

FIT

Fit refers to culture, company, team, and job fit, and becomes increasingly important when addressing turnover, driving higher engagement, or enhancing the overall cultural experience of employees. Fit complements both potential and readiness, and is particularly vital when turnover or low engagement are significant challenges within an organization.
 

POTENTIAL

Potential refers to a candidate's capacity to grow into something great - abilities that are not yet realized - and is crucial for strategies involving career pathing, succession planning, and promotability.  You would prioritize potential when focusing on future workforce planning, career development, and long-term role success.

As a certified partner of SHL, we provide assessments backed by rigorous science and extensive data. With over 45 billion data points on workforce skills, performance, and potential, we offer reliable and precise insights into your talent pool. All SHL tests are rigorously tested and the validities are confirmed through various studies. For more information about testimonials and case studies, please contact us directly.

STRUCTURED INTERVIEWS

We generally conduct interviews independently but can arrange panel interviews upon request. Using standardized questions and evaluation criteria, we reduce subjectivity and enable objective comparison of candidates. Structured interviews focus on specific competencies and job requirements, allowing us to assess a candidate's knowledge, skills, experience, and behavior in various situations.

PSYCHOMETRIC TESTS

We utilize various psychometric assessments, including ability tests and personality questionnaires. The SHL tests we employ are based on extensive scientific research and are trusted by leading organizations such as Amazon, Under Armour, and T-Mobile.

​

Psychometric tests allow us to measure a candidate's cognitive abilities, behavioral styles, mindset, and job-related competencies. They are particularly effective for assessing candidate's potential, learning ability, problem-solving skills, and overall suitability, helping to reduce biases and subjectivity in the evaluation process.

PRACTICAL TESTS AND WORK SIMULATIONS

Candidates undertake tests or tasks that mirror the actual challenges of the position. This provides a realistic overview of their current knowledge and skills, as well as how they would perform immediately in the role. Examples include writing code, developing a marketing plan, or resolving customer service cases. This method allows us to evaluate their practical skills, problem-solving abilities, and approach to work tasks.

BACKGROUND AND RFERENCE CHECKS

​Background checks and reference interviews help mitigate potential risks and ensure that candidates have been honest throughout the recruitment process. This is always the final step in the process, primarily aimed at confirming information but also providing potentially valuable insights into the candidate's previous professional behavior.
