People, properly chosen and developed, are the key to organizational success

SELECTION PROCESS DEVELOPMENT Tests of Job Knowledge, Abilities and Skills and Competencies We develop and implement job related and valid tests of job knowledge, abilities and skills for a wide variety of jobs. These tests significantly increase the effectiveness of the organization by ensuring that the individuals hired or promoted possess the knowledge, ability, skill, and competencies need to succeed. Research has demonstrated that these types of tests can significantly contribute to the organization's productivity. In addition, properly developed and validated tests are highly defensible in the event of legal challenges. Assessment Centers and Task Simulation Tests Tests that simulate actual job behavior have been shown to be highly valid and have a high degree of candidate acceptance. We can assist you in developing and conducting job simulation tests, including assessment centers, task simulations, and written simulation procedures. Structured or Behavioral Interviews Structured and behavioral interviews accompanied with clear standards and interviewer training have been shown to be highly predictive of job success. On the other hand, typical unstructured, informal interviews have proven to have little, if any, value. We will work with your staff to develop and implement structured or behavioral interviews that are effective and defensible. Organizational Fit Will work with your organization to identify competencies that maximize organizational fit of candidates for hire or promotion, to help ensure that the people you hire or promote possess the competencies required for success in the positions that they will fill.
