Employee selection

Employee selection is where, through a number of methods, you identify the correct person for a role or function. Primarily the focus is on recruiting external candidates but can be equally applied internally for promotion or transfer.

Assessment or development centres are constructed from a range of group exercises, individual case studies, role plays and themed exercises. Each of the exercises is chosen specifically to predict an individual’s performance in the role.

Psychometric testing is a set of tools used to assess individuals in the workplace. Quick and easy to administer with a range of online and face to face options.

Behavioural profiling is a quick way to predict how an individual will behave or respond in differing situations.

Behavioural based interviewing uses predetermined skills and attributes which are necessary for the role or function as the basis for very specific questions whereby an individual can demonstrate through their answers whether they have the necessary criteria for that role.
