Recruitment and Selection Testing

You can’t develop the wrong material.  Everybody is good at something but not necessarily the job you want filled.  You have to get your recruitment interview techniques right so you get square pegs in square holes.

Have you found yourself dealing with more than your fair share of probationary extensions and dismissals?

If you feel that you would like to improve your success rate in recruiting the ideal people for you jobs, we can help you do this in a way that is easy to learn and will make you big savings.  The cost of a wrong appointment goes much further than the cost of the readvertisment: wasted induction and management time, wasted opportunity costs, negative impact on the staff team, stress for whoever needs to cover the work not being done properly.  The list goes on and on.

We will tailor the recruitment interview and selection process to your needs and pocket. We can run psychometric testing for you if you want this, or help you design other recruitment tests that relate to your own organisational context and the specific job requirements.

We will train you and your managers to completely revolutionise your selection methods at a very low cost.  Our support will pay for itself over and over again.  This can include any or all of:

• Advice on job and person specification design

• Design of assessment test centre activities: in-tray exercises, written and work-based exercises, groupworkobservations and individual role plays

• Choosing the right place to advertise, and designing adverts and web-copy that bring the right people to you

• Running assessment test centres for you at your premises

• Pschometric testing: personality tests, ability and aptitude tests - typically we can run a Test Centre covering all these for up to 8 people for £500

• Designing more effective interview questions

• Training your managers and staff in effective interview techniques

• Advice on taking up and using references
