Psychometrics

More and more organisations are using psychometric assessments to make key recruitment and promotion decisions.

In these challenging times companies realise the importance of recruiting people who fit into the company culture right from the very start. As a result, psychometric testing is fast becoming a popular screening mechanism and an integral part of the selection process. As an indicator of personality, preferences and abilities, psychometric tests can help prospective employers to find the best match of individual to occupation and working environment. As a recruitment and selection tool, these tests can be applied in a straightforward way at the early stages of selection to screen-out candidates who are likely to be unsuitable for the job. They can also provide management with guidance on career progression for existing employees.

Psychometric testing is currently being used by over 75% of the Times Top 100 companies in the UK.
