At great{with}talent we love what we do and we try to make a real difference. We measure people at all points of the employee life-cycle: Assessment, Referencing, OnBoarding, D&I, Engagement and Exit. We have been doing it since 2003.

We have all worked at SHL (Saville and Holdsworth) which was, at the time, the leading force in the development and mass adoption of psychometric assessment as a predictor of workplace performance. Since then various members of our team have worked for Korn Ferry, Hay Group, TalentQ and SAP. We have poured our knowledge and experience into FindingPotential, which launched in 2009 and has been used by over 3000 organisations around the world. We have seen hundreds of thousands of people complete our assessments for recruitment and personal learning/ development.

We have a long term relationship with great{with}talent, who provide a number of excellent services to our organisation. We use both their LastOpinion and OnBoarder 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.
  • Having used FindingPotential 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.  FindingPotential 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 service – I think it is absolutely brilliant.
  • 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!
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
