Hiring

The process of intelligently choosing staff is one of the most difficult tasks a company faces. Prevue Assessment Hiring reports are designed to help answer the following questions:

  • Do you have a profile of what the ideal candidate looks like?
  • Have you identified the differential qualities between high performers and low performers in the position?
  • Do you spend too much of your time trying to salvage bad hires?
  • Do you have a method for predicting turnover in your position?

 

Critical Hiring Questions to Evaluate Candidates

Can the person do the job?

Scores below the Cognitive Ability Benchmarks in Prevue Assessment indicate they likely can’t do the job. Scores above the benchmarks suggest they may not be challenged enough. Both situations frequently lead to turnover.

 

How well will they do the job?

Scores outside the Personality Benchmarks in this psychometric assessment for recruitment indicate that their personality is not a good fit for the job. The further outside the benchmarks their scores are, the less likely they are to perform well. A Job Suitability score of 85% or higher indicates a high probability of strong performance. Given a choice, we usually hire candidates with the highest Job Suitability Scores, supported by this candidate assessment test.

 

Will they do the job?

Scores outside the Motivation/Interest Benchmarks in this employee assessment for hiring indicate whether candidates prefer to work with people, data, or things. Misalignment often leads to dissatisfaction or disengagement, increasing the likelihood of turnover.

 

Can you interview the candidate about their challenge areas?

Selection reports from this hiring assessment tool contain behavioral interview questions focused on areas where the candidate does not fit the established benchmarks. Combined with this pre-employment assessment tool, it helps avoid hiring mistakes and improves selection accuracy.

 

Can you identify potential derailers?

Working Characteristics Reports in Prevue Assessment answer key questions such as: How do they prefer to be paid? How important is work to them? Do they make risky decisions? How do they deal with change? What is their perception of the world?

 

Coaching

Prevue Assessment measures 24 different characteristics of your employees. Coaching reports use this information to build strategies for leveraging strengths and addressing weaknesses. Many employees struggle to progress in their roles, leading to dissatisfaction. This psychometric assessment for recruitment helps organizations understand how individuals engage with their work.
