Assessment and Testing

The quality of the people you hire and retain is more important today that ever before. One of the keys to ensuring that you have the people who best fit your organisation and who have the correct skills for the job in hand is behavioural assessment and skills testing.

Allen Recruitment Consulting can deliver, in conjunction with a number of market leaders, a set of leading edge validated behavioural and skills assessments on a low per assessment cost basis, on a fixed cost per hire, or on an annual licence basis. For details on pricing, please see our download section.

Traditionally companies only use assessments in the recruitment phase for senior roles. Now you can use the best of breed assessments and skills tests to evaluate everyone who applies for a position in your company at a fraction of the cost traditionally paid.

Assessment

Our validated behavioural assessments measure personality traits, cognitive abilities and attitudes. The assessment range was developed in specific response to a large market research study.

The range of assessments was created using the most modern protocols for validation and is designed to be used throughout the lifecycle for employees for selection, development, succession planning, career development and strategic workforce planning.

Our online assessments are delivered in conjunction with a partner who is a market leader in this area and they lead to more effective decision making, training and development and strategic workforce planning. They measure people for their unique personality characteristics, cognitive abilities and attitudes. These measurements are then available from screening to hiring and on-boarding, lateral moves and promotions, training and coaching, and leadership identification and development.

Successful companies understand and make the most of their employee traits and competencies. Being able to identify these competencies will give you the knowledge to tap into your company's strength.

See our download section for more details on our assessments.

Skills Testing

Using skills tests during your pre-employment screening process will help you evaluate a candidate's readiness for the job. Our skills tests are developed by Subject Matter Experts and help identify strengths and weaknesses in relation to key knowledge areas, skills or abilities. We help take the guesswork out of hiring by helping ensure that a candidate's knowledge, skills and abilities match what is required to excel in your organisation.

Skills tests can also be used to measure incumbent's knowledge, skills and abilities in order to support career development and training initiatives.

In conjunction with a market leader in this area Allen Recruitment Consulting offers an extensive test catalog with hundreds of skills assessment tests in categories such as: Accounting/Financial, IT, Call Centre, Clerical, Microsoft Office, Engineering, Industrial / Warehouse, Medical, Retail and Banking.
