A Scientific Approach to Psychometric Assessments

In recruitment and internal mobility, our decisions are often influenced by cognitive biases that skew our thinking. Psychometric assessments, grounded in scientific methods, enhance objectivity and mitigate discrimination in HR decision-making. They also foster constructive dialogues with candidates and employees, leading to more informed decisions and actions. Each psychometric test we use undergoes extensive research and adheres to international validation standards, including those set by the International Test Commission (ITC). Our flagship personality assessment is certified by the British Psychological Society (BPS), ensuring its reliability and accuracy. Regular revisions incorporate innovative technologies and methods such as Item Response Theory to support the highest standards of precision. As an internationally recognised publisher of psychometric tests, Central Test has developed over 20 assessments evaluating all relevant aspects required for identifying talent. Beyond the descriptive analysis provided alongside traits like extraversion, these tests predict the skills necessary for job matching. Each trait is evaluated using a set of weighted criteria, resulting in an elevated level of precision and interpretation. Our predictive model combines a pragmatic view — based on naming required competencies — with a scientific perspective focused on accurately evaluating potential. Detailed diagnoses of candidates’ strengths and development needs guide job matching, ensuring more reliable and interpretable predictions. This also enhances the candidate experience, making the results more meaningful and actionable. Typical Competencies and Traits we will Assess Include, Amongst Others: Understanding Needs, Customer Satisfaction, Prospecting Skills, Sales Drive, Empathic Sales, Listening Skills, Interpersonal Skills, Respect, Taking Responsibility, Quality Orientation, etc.
