Assessment Centres

Assessment Centres

Assessment Centres comprise a series of techniques designed to facilitate decision making on a group of individuals.

They are generally recognised as being one of the best predictors of job performance.

Usually lasting a full day (or more in some cases), they consist of a number of different work-related tasks, such as 'In-Tray' and 'Leaderless Group Discussion' exercises, Interviews and Presentations, as well as Psychometric Tests and Questionnaires. They are extremely demanding for candidates, and generate a wealth of information. The event operates on a strict time schedule, and is overseen by a number of trained observers, often including relevant personnel from the organisation. Please note, however, that Assessment Centre exercises are not available on a bureau service basis.
