Psychometric Assessment

What is Psychometric Assessment?

Psychometric Assessment is the generic term for the range of instruments which aim to measure an individual's preferred work style, behaviour, motivation, aptitudes and abilities.
Because PA instruments vary greatly in terms of their robustness, accuracy, depth of penetration and insight, quality and nature of outputs, Scott Jardine Search, Selection & Assessment exclusively use only instruments approved by the British Psychological Society.

What is Psychometric Assessment used for?

● Selection & Recruitment ● Career Development ● Coaching & Mentoring Programmes
●Performance Management ● Company Culture Assessment  

Take the example of your Sales Manager. Their day-to-day role will demand a huge variety of skills, characteristics and competencies. While the same role can be carried out equally well by two individuals with vastly different personalities, styles and behavioural traits, the crucial difference in success will, we believe, always centre on a few key criteria:
Is the candidate likely to communicate effectively at different levels, will they be insightful enough to spot and capitalise on opportunites, are they able to quickly and accurately analyse information relating to margin or cost?

It is how accurately you measure these at the recruitment stage that will determine how successful that appointment will eventually be.
