The question is: why wouldn't you want your organisation (or your clients) and employees to benefit from free assessments, forever?

The FindingPotential service launched in November 2009, since then we have set-up over 1500 organisations on our systems. We actively seek feedback to make sure the service is meeting users’ needs and lives up to the promises made on this website.
The following comments are from organisations using FindingPotential:
I have been a user of SHL OPQ products for many, many years. Needless to say I was delighted to receive a mail from Jayne Bright offering a "free" service. I was obviously VERY sceptical, but decided to spend a few minutes going through the motions of registering. After a few seconds I had received the confirmation email and went on to look at the site. My initial impressions were very favourable, so I decided to test myself, I knew what results to expect, having done a number of tests over the past 30 odd years in my profession. When I got the report I was more than impressed. I can get the same out of this free assessment as I do from the OPQ (and I am not trashing OPQ - on the contrary, I have used them for 15 odd years), but I actually prefer your report. It is clearer, concise and I like the way you have structured it. So far I have assessed around 12 people to get a good feel for the product and how I will give feedback. The little "booklets' that you provide are very good and useful. If I have one suggestion, it would be to elaborate on these "books" into something a little more meaty, but then I suppose your time is spent developing the tests as opposed to the supplementary documentation. I am now looking at ways at expanding the usage of the assessment in my organisation. I have also mentioned this to all my colleagues in the profession when we have seminars etc. One question that I am sure everyone asks - why is it free? Is it so as to get critical mass to do your validation studies, or have you really taken over from the Pope? Either way, I do not mind. Your product is great and I hope to be using it for many years to come.
We have found the FindingPotential tool to be both very easy for us to administer and for candidates to use. It adds value to our recruitment and selection process and takes costs out. The reports are prepared immediately and produced in a highly professional way that are easy to follow. We have a long term relationship with Talent Drain, who provide a number of excellent services to our organisation. We use both their Reflections and On-Boarder products, which provide valuable information to develop our organisation strategy.
I have made extensive use of the Finding Potential service. It has been an invaluable tool for career, business, life and career coaching and has provided useful insights for a wide range of my coaching clients. The service is top quality, highly responsive and easy to manage via a personalised account . The reports are well constructed with the main benefits of being easy to read, feedback and understand. Client feedback shows that the information is seen as pragmatic and very useful in a wide range of scenarios including executive and leadership coaching, career development, preparing for assessments / interviews and lifestyle changes. I highly recommend this excellent service and look forward to its on-going success and evolution.
I loved using your instruments and would be happy to provide testimonials if you need them. In particular I find your operating system incredibly easy to use, the visuals and graphics are top quality, a good choice of report and I love how easy it is to send report on to clients, lovely lovely lovely!
I am VERY impressed with your Assessment Manager function. Have used SHL's and this is much more user friendly. Also VERY impressed with your report outputs. Will definitely be using your tools. I just cannot believe it is free…where is the catch?! (I'm a cynic by nature). But then if the fee is reasonable I will be willing to pay for such a tool. I also share your view of the exploitation taking place currently. THANK YOU!!!!
As a free service the finding potential questionnaire and reporting is excellent and has been instrumental within the HR Team to assess potential new employees, their attributes and where we as a company can develop the team and engage new employees who share the company's vision and key drivers.
I think the FP suite would be ideally suited as part of initial screening of candidates for higher level Leadership & Management Development Programmes.
Having used Finding Potential recently as part of a recruitment exercise, I found them to be responsive, helpful and professional. Managers enjoyed working with the materials, candidates appreciated the feedback they received, and I saved myself a lot of time. Finding Potential really was a win win for everyone.
I have been very happy with your service and your materials and have recommended you to a number of others.
I was extolling the virtues of your system to a colleague recently and their response was that "it sounds too good to be true" - and I agree. An excellent service.
I used your services for a major piece of work and found the results to be exceptional.
As an independent consulting firm, we use the best tools available on the global market and we are delighted to add FindingPotential to our suite of assessment. The user friendly administration system, credible questionnaire and professional reporting combine to deliver a high quality assessment experience for our candidates and clients.
The FindingPotential system is absolutely superb, and I look forward to making more use of it in the future.
I love your site – i think it is absolutely brilliant.

I find the responsiveness very quick. It takes a click of a mouse to support and within minutes you receive feedback. The service is very efficient in responding to queries as well as in accessing the server and generating reports.
Excellent, fast and professional and ever helpful.
The system is very responsive. Reports generating, and answering enquiries. Very impressed.
Responsiveness has been really good.
Good to excellent responsiveness in setting up my new admin account.
Always receive emails within 24 hours.
Very quick, very clear.
Response initially to help me with the site and implement new report was first class.
The customer service is excellent and if I have any questions, the response time is very good. Also, resetting my password and account details was very easy to do.
Always very good – quick and friendly, just the way I like it.
Overall, the service we have received from TalentDrain (Finding Potential) has been excellent.
Exceptional. I needed access quickly as I had been asked by a client to undertake psychometric testing at short notice. The account was up and running for me to use within the hour.
Absolutely excellent.
Very prompt and useful.
Very responsive!
Great: speedy knowledgeable help when required.
I must say anytime I had a query I received a response almost immediately and thank you for that.
All my requests to you have been dealt with promptly and very efficiently.

The reports are of a high quality and quite professional. The language used in the reports is simple and easily understood. The idea of sending a personal report immediately to candidates assessed help eliminate all the bad feelings and suspicions about why the candidate is asked to complete an assessment.
Excellent, quite detailed but easy to understand.
Reports are very good, in this moment we are using as pre interview preparation tool, and we are checking validity of results. Till now results are showing clear preferences for candidates to behave in certain manner, as shown in results.
I like the reports.
VERY impressed with your report outputs.
I think the reports are brilliant and keep asking myself how you can offer all of this for free - development of tests tends to be expensive, as well as the creation of a delivery website. There doesn't seem to be a catch though.
Reports are easy to understand and provide good context to the scoring that is used.
The reports are useful in the following ways - well presented, well written, good colours, and simple.
Results are comprehensive, well presented in the report and from our experience fairly accurate.
Leadership & Management Report is great and prompts good conversations in our workshops.
The reports are very good. We used to use a competitor for our personality profiling and notice that FindingPotential has much the same format which is easy to use.
The reports have helped provide a deeper insight into both existing and optional employees.
Excellent. My head of the assessment centre is a former senior manager with Thomas International and so was somewhat sceptical at first, but has been won-over by the style and depth of the FP reports – we particularly like the Leadership Styles Report.
The quality of the reports is both well laid out and easy to read and interpret.
Excellent – the profile chart provides an overview but there is sufficient narrative to ensure this is backed up with detail.
The quality of the reports were exactly as I had expected and were very useful to use in the context for which I was using them (outplacement).
I love your reports, they are clear, concise and easy to interpret and utilise.
The quality and choice of reporting is excellent
Very good - reads well, and is easy to understand. I think the front cover with the picture of the women could be removed.
Very easy to read and aesthetically pleasing.
The team profile at the end of the report is also great, and assists me to help teams develop to their full potential.
The quality and the range covered were exceptional. The support first-class. I have used a wide range of psychometric, personality and EI instruments over the last twenty years and have found none better.
Absolutely excellent. Many users in XXXX prefer to use FindingPotential Personality assessment rather than any other “costly” assessment, and are very happy with the reports.
The reports are clear, concise, user friendly and can be read directly by the candidate without much need for interpretation.
I have been extremely impressed by the FindingPotential service, and hope to make further use of it this year. As my responsibilities cover Learning and Development I feel that this service covers the bridge into recruitment. The document that the Personality Questionnaire generates is a useful tool to target development needs once the candidate has been recruited.

The support materials are good.
The supporting materials are very helpful.
Materials are very good, and help us a lot in order to prepare better for interview.
Really good. I'm always interested in as much psychometric information as I can get.
I've only looked over them briefly but also of a high standard.
The site is very easy to manoeuvre with good supporting information.
I’ve only flicked through these rather than use them. Great you have them though.
These are excellent for less experienced managers – my client particularly liked the interview questions – using these materials really does save a huge amount of time.
The supporting documentation is practical and of high quality.
Seem good on first glance, but we have never used them.
First class. Better than most I have used.

The system is very user friendly and so are the reports. None of the candidates I assessed ever called to say they are struggling to either log in or understand the instructions. That to me is proof to how user friendly it is.
Easy and simple to use system
The system is very intuitive.
Really like the way reminder emails are sent automatically each week to prompt response. Seems to work well as I rarely have to chase.
I have found the system and assessments very easy to use and the support by the team has been very efficient and helpful. To be able to offer personality assessments for free is amazing in itself, particularly given the quality of the reports that are generated and the positive candidate experience that they have.
I have been delighted with the service you offer.
It’s surprising that other companies have not been able to make it this simple.
Good for administrator and excellent for participant.
Is very user friendly - easy to set up candidates and organise into separate campaigns.
Admin is simple and easy to do and see what is going on.
The site was fairly easy to use. My colleague used it for the first time and after a few moments of having a look round the site; she found how to create the assessments.
System is easy use and we now use FindingPotential as a standard part of our recruitment process.
Very simple and ideal for an admin-o-phobe like me (and much simpler than others we use).
Users of the programme have found it very easy and intuitive to use.
Perfect – again for less experienced managers they welcome something which they can pick up and run with. Too often they are put off by tools that appear to be just too complicated.
With regards to your service I found setting up the account very easy and was very grateful for you to be able to do it so quickly for me as I had a very tight deadline. Setting up the assessments couldn't have been easier and checking when people completed the assessments was also very easy.
The system itself is very user friendly in terms of intuitive navigation. We are very impressed by the overall quality and professionalism of the tools and your service.
I have found the system to be very user friendly.
Easy to use the admin site, no complaints.
In terms of ease of use I have had no problems, the candidates also find it easy to use and very professional looking. I really like the letter that it sends out to the candidates, very professional and personalized.
Excellent for both the user and administrator.
The service is extremely easy to use. Creating a candidate is straightforward and quick.
I find the website particularly user-friendly and clear to navigate. I particularly like the option to group candidates to campaigns - this appeals to my OCD nature!

I have noticed that if the individual is truthful when completing the questions, the report comes very close to the truth about that individual proving a very high face validity. The feedback I have received from those who completed have also been that the test is measuring up to some personality tests. One example I can quote was this comment from one of the candidates: I have taken other personality tests and it is scary how this test tell the truth about me, which means I cannot deny these things any more, I just have to start working on some of the things. Having worked with a few internet based assessments and having used their reports I find your service measuring up and outclassing some of them especially in the language and definition of concepts and constructs measured.
What you say you deliver is what so far you have delivered.
The service is exceeding my expectations. I really appreciate your generosity.
Big tick.
I think overall an excellent service.
Nothing to complain about!
Test itself is intuitive and, again, very user friendly.
I have found your service very useful.
I’d say very well.
I have to say I was dubious having been wedded to SHL for so long but was really impressed with the quality of the reporting, technical support and overall service. Even the candidates remarked that they enjoyed doing the questionnaire and appreciated the feedback report that they received.
Very good.
I think it over-delivers.
From my point of view, it more than measures up. I’m truly grateful to you for this wonderful resource.
