What are the best psychometric tests for recruitment?
April 19 / Renu Gundala Psychometric tests are becoming increasingly more popular and are revolutionising the way that companies recruit new talent. It is estimated that over 75% of the top 100 companies in the UK now use psychometric testing as part of their selection process, due to the many benefits that these diverse assessments can provide. When it comes to selecting which are the best psychometric tests to use as part of your recruitment process, it will ultimately depend on the industry or the job role that you are hiring for. They take various forms (numerical, mechanical, logical, verbal, etc), typically broken down into two distinct types - tests of ability and personality assessments. Ability tests assess how well a person does something whereas a personality questionnaire assesses how they do it. Below, we’ll be exploring the top psychometric assessments for recruitment and the benefits of each.
