Have you hired the right people and how do you get them to give you their best performance?
Assessment centres are an interactive selection tool for organisations that are committed to achieving quality commercial results through their people. With the cost of poor performance and hiring increasing in today’s dynamic market, top performing organisations have identified the value that Assessment Centres can add to their recruitment process. Organisation and role specific, this tool can be designed for use at all levels of the organisation and serves as a valuable and cost effective means of assessing larger numbers of candidates within valid and reliable parameters.
Tal-os and its partner Chandler Macleod have extensive experience in the design and delivery of assessment and development centres across all industries and levels from process workers, office & call centre staff, graduates and specialised professionals through to senior management level. We have partnered with clients in both commercial and government organisations.
Our assessment centres comprise a range of exercises and simulations to ensure a comprehensive coverage of the relevant competencies. Assessment exercises may include ability tests, personality questionnaires, behavioural interviews and various individual and group exercises.
They type and number of exercises is generally decided following an analysis of the competencies and the various stages of the recruitment process.
The different types of exercises typically found at assessment centre range from, group exercises, through to one-on-one role plays. The exercises can be ‘customised’ to be realistic and representative of the target role or exercises can be selected that are ‘generic’, off the shelf exercises. Off the shelf exercises will often not provide scenarios that simulate the job quite so closely, but will be designed to elicit similar competencies from candidates, whilst placing them in more generic simulations. |
