Assessment Centre

Introduction

In Assessment Centres, candidates normally take part in a number of activities to determine success at a desired level or in a particular job. Simulation exercises, competency based interviews and psychometrics, or a combination of these, are used.

Why use Assessment Centres?

• Assessment centres can predict accurately how well an individual will perform in a new role/job.
• The standardized processes employed ensure that individuals all have the same opportunity to show their abilities on the same basis.
• The centres' assessors can be more objective than selection/competitive processes.
• Employers get a more complete overview of employees, based on the variety of simulation exercises and assessment tools used.
• Employers reduce risks and expenses — in the selection and promotion of individuals who are not the right fit or the right candidates for jobs.

Simulations/Exercises

The simulation exercises in an Assessment Centre will usually reflect the three typical working scenarios familiar to most of us: working alone, working one-to-one and working in groups. Organisations that undertake volume recruitment campaigns often implement an online or offline screening process to select a shortlist of candidates to progress to the Assessment Centre phase.
