Role Assessment
Welcome to the ultimate talent assessment platform
You know how important it is to build a talented and qualified workforce, but how can you balance time to source, qualify candidates’ soft skills, and determine who’s fit to advance in the hiring process?
Role Assessment is for organisations that need to understand, build, and mobilise a future-fit workforce based on objective insights into the skills and preferences of their employees and potential employees.
We offer human skill assessment solutions for corporate recruitment and lifelong career development.
Soft skills are highly relevant to understanding a person’s strengths, growth opportunities and development areas and are predictive of job fit and ultimately, performance in a role.
Our portfolio of psychometric assessments is supported by over 70 years of research and development activities and includes high quality measures of personality, cognitive abilities, critical thinking, motivations and interests.
Some of our brands are recognised worldwide, including Raven’s (problem solving), Watson Glaser (Critical thinking) and the Bennett (Mechanical reasoning), and many more.
What is Role Assessment?
- Role Assessment is an online tool that empowers your recruiters to make informed decisions about their pool of candidates for any given position.
- Automatically scored, our objective assessment will instantly provide a granular view of each candidates' job fit and how they rank against other applicants who are being considered for the same position.
- Built on the backbone of Pearson’s talent assessment library, recruiters gain access to a customised battery of assessments based on each job role to measure cognitive, personality and language abilities.
How does Role Assessment work?
Why use Role Assessment?
Why businesses use Role Assessment
In-depth screening takes time and resources. The efficiency that Role Assessment brings to your organisation allows recruiters to pursue a deeper pool of candidates, with the same amount of time and effort.
Rather than advancing the top three or four candidates based on their resumes or quick screening calls, recruiters can send out assessments widely. With automated scoring of Pearson’s assessments and easy to use results, recruiters can quickly and effectively make informed decisions about each candidate.
Why hiring managers use Role Assessment
Better candidates lead to better hires. Role Assessment enables you to cast a wider net so that only the most qualified candidates reach the interview stage.
The expanded reach ensures that good candidates are not getting unnecessarily screened out in early parts of the recruitment process. And with the data-driven results from the role specific assessment, recruiters can be confident that every candidate that moves to the next phase of the hiring process has real potential.
