Overview
Ability tests are formal, timed tests, taken either online or by filling in a printed answer sheet. They usually take the form of multiple choice questions. The candidate is given full instructions before starting the test, there are example questions to try with no time limit. Many employers now use online tests as an early selection method. The FindingPotential Ability tests will initially focus on verbal and numerical ability, with application across multiple job levels.
Corporate – these ability tests will be available in two forms – one to be used as a pre-sift and support your work in creating realistic job previews for applicants. The second version will be a secure parallel form that can be used to re-test candidates at the short list/assessment centre stage.
Individuals – we will be developing a range of tests that you will be able to complete, see your final score (in comparison to a peer group) and see where you were right and wrong.
Launch Schedule
We are absolutely committed to launching FindingPotential Ability in 2010/2011. The biggest challenge with a development project like this is finding people to help trial the questionnaires. The more people who help us with trialling the quicker we can launch really robust products... free of charge.
