Highlight working style, communication preferences, and motivation, helping you assess role and team fit more accurately.
Reduce mis-hires and long-term attrition
By finding candidates that suit your roles and team environments, you lower the risk of poor fit and early attrition.

Anna O'Mahony Operational Support Lead, Vitality
We have used test partnership for over a year now to grow our supply chain team... it has helped us hire 6 people at different levels, and assisted in countless applications. The tests we have used are insight numerical, verbal and inductive to show a wide range of skills. It helped us massively during the hiring process as this is a very comparable test so we were able to directly analyse candidates. It also saved us time, as we were able to rule out some candidates based on scores, saving us interview time. One of my favourite things about test partnership is the user interface. I believe it is very simple to use. Furthermore, the use of graphs and other data makes it easy to compare.

Thomas Barratt Hedge Fund Operations Manager, Ironshield Capital
We were struggling to identify high-potential candidates and especially when the recruitment process was run internally, without consultants involvement... the results are amazing. Firstly it's an important cost saving - especially in entry and associate level roles where we internally run the whole recruitment process among the assessments. Also, we are able to evaluate our candidates and recognize better any red flags.
