People Central Ltd is a Hawkes Bay company specialising in psychometric testing and assessment. A normal customer will be an employer that is wanting to hire a staff member.
"The employer either brings us in at the beginning of the process or, thanks to a niggling feeling that they're missing something, we come in at the end", announces Steve Evans, Director and Founder of People Central. "Having a unprejudiced third party on the selection panel provides great discernment for the employer, particularly when the third party is qualified in psychometric testing!".
In Evans experience, most companies hire people based on their capacity, and fire them on the grounds of their personality, typically at substantial fiscal expense to the employer and emotional cost to the employee. Evans announces "Psychometric testing falls into two main categories, personality questions measure sides of personality and talent tests measure intellectual and reasoning capability. When referring to recruitment, ability testing is excellent for working out if an applicant has the core capabilities necessary for success in a job. Many bosses don't realize that it is a fact that interviews and reference checks alone don't make the grade when it comes to determining someone's ability to accomplish the job. "
The kinds of psychometric testing People Central endorse would be specific to the job, but Evans asserts that a common capacity test would cover: oral and numeral reasoning, abstract reasoning, clerical accuracy and ability to check, commercial proficiency, and technical capability. Personality tests identify applicants whose behavior aligns with behaviors linked with pre-eminence in a particular business. When undertaking psychometric testing for personality, the following elements can be identified: whether a candidate is probably going to price and support a business culture, competencies and desires; how they are likely to have interaction with team-mates, clients, and providers; and how they are probably to deal with the pressures and strains of the job.As for that paltry feeling, Evans understands that companies can feel that they are in a steam cooker situation, "Frequently there is a cut off point approaching, and a large amount of work to be done, otherwise companies feel that there's a low pool of talents available in the neighborhood. "
Evans urges companies to bring in a professional to do psychometric testing, he is saying "The final result is going to be invaluable for the employer".
