Talent Assessments

 

Talent Assessments

Let’s face it: people are complex. Choosing which candidate to hire can feel like a game of chance, but it doesn’t have to be that way. A talent assessment performed by a trained psychology consultant can give you clarity, increased understanding, and confidence in your management decisions.

A talent assessment identifies an individual’s strengths and developmental areas as they relate to their role. It focuses on a person’s behavioral skills and abilities, which often impact job performance more than technical skills.

In the hiring process, a talent assessment allows you to make a more informed selection decision. No candidate is perfect, but an assessment can help you leverage their strengths and support their developmental areas to maximize your new employee’s success once they’re on board.

Talent assessments for existing employees can form the foundation for personalized developmental plans, provide valuable feedback to the individual, and identify broader talent gaps within the organization.

Find out how talent assessments can be integrated into your existing hiring process.
