People Central Limited is a Hawkes Bay company focusing on psychometric testing and assessment. A typical customer will be a company who is needing to hire a staff member.
"The employer either brings us in at the beginning of the process or, because of a niggling feeling they're missing something, we come in at the end", asserts Steve Evans, Director and Creator 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 employers hire someone based on their capacity, and fire them on the grounds of their personality, usually at considerable financial expense to the employer and emotional cost to the employee. Evans claims "Psychometric testing falls into two main categories, personality questions measure sides of personality and ability tests measure intellectual and reasoning capability. When talking about recruitment, capacity testing is fantastic for working out if an applicant has the core capabilities necessary for success in a job. Many bosses don't realise that it is a indisputable fact that interviews and reference checks alone don't qualify when it comes to determining someone's ability to accomplish the job. "
The types of psychometric testing People Central counsel would be peculiar to the job, but Evans asserts that a common capability test would cover: oral and numeric reasoning, abstract reasoning, clerical accuracy and ability to check, commercial proficiency, and technical capability. Personality tests identify applicants whose behavior aligns with behaviors associated with pre-eminence in a selected business. When undertaking psychometric testing for personality, the factors below can be identified: whether a candidate is likely to worth and support a business culture, competencies and desires; how they are probably to interact with team-mates, clients, and providers; and how they are likely to cope with the stresses and strains of the job.As for that niggling feeling, Evans understands that bosses can feel that they are in a steam cooker situation, "Regularly there is a cut-off point approaching, and a large amount of work to be done, otherwise employers feel that there's a low pool of skills available locally. "
Evans urges bosses to bring in a professional to try psychometric testing, he says "The result will be invaluable for the employer".
