The advantage of behavioural assessments lies in their objectivity, as they do not necessitate a human evaluator or assessor. Human assessors can potentially introduce unconscious bias into the assessment process. Through behavioural testing, we reduce the likelihood of unconscious bias at this stage in the recruitment process, thereby ensuring that high performers are not excluded due to irrelevant demographic factors. Our assessments are meticulously crafted with inclusivity as a primary consideration.
Research has shown that behavioural assessments are powerful predictors of job performance. Our assessments measure the specific behavioural constructs which underpin performance, employee engagement, and job satisfaction, helping to ensure person-role fit. This allows you to maximise the probability of hiring the right candidates, improving quality of hire.
