Psychometrics don’t replace interviews, they correct for their blind spots.
They give you a structured, evidence‑based lens on the two things that matter most in senior roles:
- How a leader thinks (cognitive ability)
- How a leader behaves (personality)
Together, they create a far more complete picture of leadership potential and risk.
Our Process
Stage
|
Activity
|
1
|
We review material to ensure all assessment output is interpreted through the lens of the specific role and organisational context:
- Position description for the role
- CV of each of the final candidates
|
2
|
We manage all candidate communication and test administration:
- Contacting each candidate to explain the process and set expectations
- Issuing secure online access links for each assessment and providing help desk services as required throughout the process
- Monitoring completion and following up as required
|
3
|
Each candidate completes the relevant assessment(s):
- Occupational Personality Questionnaire
- Verify Cognitive Ability Assessments: Numerical, Inductive or Deductive Reasoning
|
4
|
We prepare a detailed and cohesive report for each candidate which:
- synthesises personal and cognitive ability findings
- highlights key strengths relevant to the role and identifies potential areas of challenge or development need
- provides recommendations for areas to probe further in final interviews
|
5
|
We facilitate a debrief session with the organisation to:
- walk through the key findings for each candidate and provide guidance on how to use the insights in final interviews and reference checking
- address questions and explore areas of interest or concern
- support the organisation to make a well-informed, confident appointment decision
|
6
|
We provide an individual debrief for each candidate to:
- share key themes from the results in a constructive and supportive way
- provide an opportunity for the candidate to ask questions and respond to the findings
- ensure the process is experienced as fair, transparent, and respectful - regardless of the final hiring outcome
This step is a requirement of the professional standards and ethics that govern psychometric testing practice.
