Our Advice
Critical Insight
- Increasing the quality of pre-employment
assessments beyond an interview improves objectivity and the quality of hiring
decisions. Designing them in-house allows for greater alignment with the
organization's unique needs.
Impact and Result
- Create a pre-employment assessment to accompany an interview so that you can better assess the on-the-job competencies of your candidates.
- Create a scoring rubric for the assessment to improve hires' objectivity and mitigate bias.
- Test the assessment to ensure that it is valid and reliable before integrating the assessment into your talent acquisition process.
